February Star Wars Battlefront Update: 5 Reasons to Get Excited

New Maps

The Battle of Jakku and the January update helped improve the depth of Battlefront but there's still a long way to go.

The February update is going to help the cause by delivering a brand new Survival mode mission on Hoth and a brand new Hoth multiplayer map that supports the larger game modes including Walker Assault, Supremacy, Fighter Squadron and Turning Point.

The new Survival map is an exciting addition because the game desperately needs more single player and co-op content. And the arrival of a brand new Hoth map for these popular game modes should help them feel a little less stale come the end of February. 

Hoth and Endor are two of our favorite Star Wars locales and we're excited to see where EA and DICE take us later this month.

    What this game needs is a Campaign mode. I was so hoping it would have one, but its just another PvP, and frankly when you are not the greatest at using a controller, it gets frustrating getting sniped by higher level gamers to the point I turn it off and go back to Destiny. Maybe a 6v6 matchup, fewer players on the map would make it better, at least give us a choice of how many opponents we want to face off against. Graphics are one thing, but game play, if it is too frustrating, makes the game not so good.

      What are you talking about? Destiny is 10x times harder than battlefront.

      hahahaha, learn how to play the game newb. It reminds me somewhat of Halo but a Star Wars version. Again, learn how to play (or read the review regarding no campaign and don’t waste your money? simple)

    This is dumb, cause why would we need an xp boost when most of the players are already max lvl?!?!?

      it is not just an xp boost it is also a credit boost

        In case you hadn’t noticed, there are already hoth maps for walker assault AND FS. Not sure why we need two hoth maps for these game modes …

    Need to have split screen multiple player. It stinks when you can’t play with someone at the house online.

    Ea need to fix this silly bad connection to the server game will be unplayable issue in yellow/red writing. It appears almost every MP session on Xbox One. There’s nothing wrong with my internet! Try flying a vehicle & have this happen to you! KABOOM!! Cheap servers & the players suffer for it! You don’t get any of this with COD. I still love SWBF though. Is anyone else having these issues?

    I’m not getting this game cause it doesn’t have single player

    EA is working with Visceral Games to make an open world Star Wars game, which should satisfy your list for singleplayer. Bioware might make a game too, but don’t quote me on that. There’s plenty of games planned for the future, so get amped!

    102,187 hours. very cool. if you never sleep or stop playing, you’ll get a spiffy new Leia costume in just over 11 years.

    I have yet to come across an online publication that speaks about the real problem plaguing this game… match-making. I’m pretty tired of reading articles that acknowledge there have been issues, then hype the upcoming update, which usually results in nothing more than nerfing or buffing weapons. Stop it! If we can’t play the game because the match-making system is so horrendously horrible, then what’s the point?!? EA/DICE needs to be held accountable for this gaming atrocity. Write about that.

    Hey Dice! My only problem with battlefront 3 is that in Walker Assault I seems to me that the rebels have a far greater chance the empire to win. I suggest raising the damage to the Walkers just a tad.

    Its a community challenge. 102,187 hours combined……
    Also need to address team balance issues

    This game was released half finished so the makers could make as much money as possible releasing it in line with the film. Battlefront 2 was such a brilliant game in comparison this is total cr@p.
