| - Star Wars Battlefront is a first-person and third-person shooter action game developed by EA DICE and published by Electronic Arts and is the fifth and latest game in the Star Wars: Battlefront series. It was released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows on November 17th, 2015 in the U.S. and November 19th in Australia and Europe. Players who owned the game prior to December 8th, 2015 received the first announced expansion pack - The Battle for Jakku - for free. Players who pre-ordered the game prior to launch were able to play the expansion pack when it was released on December 1st, 2015. The game has first and third person perspectives, allowing the players to choose between the two. The focus of the game is online multiplayer with up to 40 player battles; however, there are also offline challenges inspired by moments in the films that can be played solo or co-op either online or with split-screen. The offline challenges are re-playable with a range of difficulty. Unlike previous games in the series, there is not a traditional campaign. Players can play as the Rebel Alliance or the Galactic Empire in addition to being able to play as key characters from the franchise. Players also gain the use of familiar props such as speeders, X-wing fighters, lightsabers and AT-ATs. DICE has also added power-ups such as shields and explosives. New items never seen before in the films are also added to game-play. Using a technique called photogrammetry, DICE was able to turn hundreds of photographs of real Star Wars props into three-dimensional digital models bringing the feel and look of the films directly into the game. When deciding the outcome of Battlefront, DICE chose to go "back to the core" of the franchise and asked themselves "What does someone want when they play a Star Wars game?" There are no dedicated space battles in the base game, but in Battle Station (new mode in Death Star expansion pack) space battles are present. There are dogfights in the atmosphere of planets and above battlegrounds as well as a mix of ground-based and vehicle based battles. The game itself focuses mainly on the original trilogy of Star Wars films and not the prequel or sequel trilogies. As stated before, the game ties into Star Wars: The Force Awakens with the first expansion pack, and ties into Rogue One with the last one, making them released in chronological order backwards.
