EA is also releasing tie-in DLC for Battlefront based on the movie. One part of this is a strategic card game called Base Command that lets players earn in-game credits that they can then use to unlock weapons and Star Cards in the full Battlefront game.īattlefront launches on November 17, about a month before Disney's Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens hits theaters in December. Players can also check out the new Battlefront 'Companion' experience at the game's website during the beta period.

In addition, EA shared some new descriptions for the three modes that will be playable in the Battlefront beta. What's more, progress earned during the beta will not carry forward to the full game. Your character or vehicle starts with one slot to equip a card but those slots are increased when you increase your rank. As such, players may run into 'interruptions' during gameplay. For more help on Star Wars: Battlefront 2. EA also stresses that the beta is being held in part to allow DICE to test aspects of the game's online infrastructure.

You do not need to preorder the game to play, as the pre-release play period is open to everyone. The Battlefront beta will run October 8-12. EA has not announced the level cap for the full Battlefront game. Once players hit the cap, they can't progress to higher levels, but can still unlock additional items.

In addition, EA has confirmed that the Battlefront beta will let you advance your character up to level five.
