Battlefront Beta Announced for Early October

​

​

EA and DICE have announced that a Star Wars: Battlefront beta will be kicking off in early October for Xbox One, PS4 and PC, offering a technical test in which you'll be able to try out 40-player Walker Assault battle on Hoth and a co-op Survival Mission on Tatooine.​

In Walker Assault, not only will you get to mix it up in a 20v20 skirmish, but you'll also be able to play as Hero characters Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. In Survival Mission, meanwhile, you'll get to join a (petty) Rebel friend in fighting waves of Imperial forces.​

There'll also be the brand new Drop Zone mode in the beta, which DICE still has yet to release details on, but will be revealing soon. The Star Wars: Battlefront Companion app will also be available during the beta, featuring the strategic card game Base Command, as well as stats, progression and loadout/appearance customisation stuff.​

Star Wars: Battlefront's beta launches in early October, ahead of the full game's release from 17th November 2015.​
