It has been reported that the March free content for Star Wars Battlefront has now started rolling out throughout the US. However, unfortunately, the new content isn’t quite available for gamers within the UK on PlayStation 4 just yet.
The latest update brings free content in the form of a new single player/cooperative Mission together with a new multiplayer map to enjoy.
New Mission and Map Details
EA has officially announced the roll-out of the update but has been a little quiet on its exact contents, apart from revealing that the new update for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One includes:
– New Mission: Rebel Depot on Tatooine added as a new Survival Mission.
– New Map: Survivors of Endor added to Walker Assault, Supremacy, and Turning Point.
The new mission, Rebel Depot on Tatooine, allows players to immerse themselves in a survival scenario on the iconic desert planet. This mission can be played solo or cooperatively, offering a fresh challenge for players who enjoy both single-player and team-based gameplay. The setting of Tatooine, with its harsh environment and familiar Star Wars lore, adds an extra layer of excitement and nostalgia for fans of the franchise.
The new map, Survivors of Endor, is set on the forest moon of Endor, known for its lush greenery and the presence of the Ewoks. This map is available for multiple game modes, including Walker Assault, Supremacy, and Turning Point. Each mode offers a different experience, whether it’s the large-scale battles of Walker Assault, the strategic control points of Supremacy, or the dynamic objectives of Turning Point. The dense forests and varied terrain of Endor provide a visually stunning and tactically challenging battlefield.
Community Reactions and Future Updates
The community’s reaction to the new content has been largely positive, with many players expressing excitement over the new mission and map. The addition of free content is always a welcome surprise, as it keeps the game fresh and engaging without requiring additional purchases. Players have taken to forums and social media to share their experiences and strategies for the new mission and map, fostering a sense of camaraderie and shared enthusiasm.
However, some players have voiced concerns about the staggered release, particularly those in the UK who are still waiting for the update to become available on PlayStation 4. EA has not provided a specific timeline for when the content will be accessible in the UK, leading to some frustration among the player base. Despite this, the anticipation remains high, and many are eagerly awaiting their chance to dive into the new content.
Looking ahead, EA has hinted at more updates and content drops in the future. While details are scarce, the promise of continued support and new additions to the game is encouraging for long-time players and newcomers alike. The ongoing development and release of new content demonstrate EA’s commitment to maintaining and expanding the Star Wars Battlefront experience.
