Star Wars Battlefront Free DLC Content Released Today
Electronic Arts has
announced that all fans will get free content that includes new maps for both
multiplayer and Missions modes, the introduction of Private Matches, new Hero
outfits, and more.
Today, EA is adding more free content to the game for all Star
Wars Battlefront players, including:
The Tatooine Survival map will now support the Blast, Droid Run, Drop
Zone, Hero Hunt, and Heroes vs Villains multiplayer modes, and is called
Raider Camp.
New Hoth-themed outfits for Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, both of which
will be available to all fans when they play as these two iconic characters
on Hoth.
The ability to create Private Matches, which makes playing with friends
even easier.
The introduction of Daily Challenges and Community Events. These are
designed to rally the Community around certain goals and objectives, giving
players the chance to earn credits and unlocks even faster.
Overall balancing tweaks to both weapons and multiplayer modes.
In February, EA will continue to add more free content for all players,
including a new Survival mission on Hoth, and a brand-new Hoth multiplayer map
that will support our larger game modes including Walker Assault, Supremacy,
Fighter Squadron and Turning Point. Speaking of Turning Point, EA is also
excited to make this popular mode available on all maps that currently support
Walker Assault and Supremacy in the February update.
In March, EA will be adding another exciting new multiplayer map on Endor
that will support Walker Assault, Supremacy, and Turning Point, and an
additional Tatooine Survival map.
Below are the patch notes specific to PlayStation 4, PC, and

Today's first new video is Rebels Recon #2.11: Inside "A Princess on
Lothal."
In this installment of Rebels Recon, StarWars.com investigates the
Star Wars Rebels episode “A Princess on Lothal,” featuring none other
than Princess Leia Organa.
StarWars.com’s Andi Gutierrez talks with the show’s creators about
bringing Leia into animated form. “It was a huge challenge,” executive
producer Dave Filoni says. Making her younger was "the single most
difficult thing,” he adds, noting that she is not the hardened leader
here that we see in A New Hope. She’s still a bit inexperienced and
developing as a political leader. “She hasn’t seen the real consequences
of action yet,” Filoni says.
When it came to casting Leia, Filoni thought of the Princess’
voice in Star Tours. “Leia in Star Tours is just amazing. The voice is
amazing,” he says. That voice belongs to Julie Dolan, who had to create a
performance that would be in-character yet different from Carrie
Fisher’s A New Hope performance. “I think she did a wonderful job,”
Filoni says.
Finally, @tannerman asks, “So has the “B” in "B-wing fighter"
always stood for “blade” - or is this a new canon thing?” Only Pablo
Hidalgo has the answer…
