Star Wars: Battlefront DLC Will Take Us To Cloud City, Jabba's Palace, The Death Star And More

Ever since the expensive $50 Star Wars: Battlefront Season Pass was announced, the question of what exactly fans would be getting as DLC has lingered. It's been quite a while since the game came out, and up until now, we haven't heard anything.

Well, that has now changed as DICE have revealed some of the maps and content that will be coming in the future. The locations we will be visiting include,the Death Star, Bespin and Jabba's Palace. Take a look:

Star Wars™ Battlefront™ Outer Rim (March 2016) – Fight among the factories of Sullust and battle within Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine

Star Wars™ Battlefront™ Bespin (Summer 2016) – It's hunt or be hunted in this action-packed experience set in the Cloud City of Bespin

Star Wars™ Battlefront™ Death Star (Fall 2016) – That's no moon! One of the most iconic locations in the Star Wars universe makes its debut in Star Wars Battlefront.

Star Wars™ Battlefront™ Expansion Pack 4 – Title TBA (Early 2017) – We will have more details to share about this exciting new expansion pack in the coming months.

Early 2017? That really is a long term plan. There is also some free content coming tomorrow though, the release added. Those are:

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 – these were unlocked by our players for completing our Heroes' Holiday community mission last month.

We are giving players 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. We'll have more news regarding Community Events and Daily Challenges in the days ahead.

And of course, we are also including some overall balancing tweaks to both weapons and multiplayer modes.

Hopefully this is all good content. It would be great if Battlefront lasted all the way into Early 2017. That might be a bit of a stretched bet though…
