Electronic Arts and DICE announced that new free content will come to Star Wars: Battlefront after the release of the The Battle of Jakku DLC pack. The Battle of Jakku DLC will be the first free DLC that will add two new maps and a new game mode.
As Patrick Söderlund claimed:
“Of course, we are also planning to support Star Wars Battlefront with new content well into the future. We will be adding more of what you love about the game, like new maps and Star Cards, for free in the coming months, in addition to all of the content we have coming with Season Pass. We’ll have more to share soon.”
Great news for all Star Wars Battlefront fans, right? Let’s hope that the upcoming free content will add more content to the game as this is something that a lot of gamers criticized DICE about.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

yeeessss!!! im having a blast with this game.
me too 🙂
You can’t like this game !11!11!!1! It costs £179.99 for 3 maps and 0.5 weapon! Hurr durr!
Correction: 4 planets and 12 maps, also I have paid 35€ so i dont see the problem..
I did everything I could to exaggerate that comment so it would appear jokingly at the first glance. I was taking a piss out of those whiners. I apparently failed…
Love how they worded it, It’s free content you guys. I mean you did just paid $60 for a pretty much a multiplayer only game. And look how cool we are for giving you some free content in the future. F’ EA!!!
still a flop
Actually quite the opposite it’s flying off the shelves.
And your numbers to prove that are?

nope, sorry. it has almost 150k less players than launch.
*still a flop for people who are aware of a value a 60$ game should provide for their money.
But for ignorant peasants – it’s all good, they’ll eat that sh*t up in a second and ask for another 60$ sequel.
Free !?!
60$ for 4 maps and 15 weapons. What a joke !.
It reminds me of Titanfall actually. A fun game, but the weapons and maps were so few.. actually thats why i dont play it anymore.
If they cant give me a game that has enough content on day one (at 60$) they cant expect me to pay more and more for it. I dont care how fun the base is, i still wont pay for extra when other games offer more for the same amount of money.
If you play blast mode there are 9 different maps.
“Yes I’d do anything to game, but I won’t pay that!”
Brilliant.
4 planets aka locations, around 12 or more maps…
still a flop
What the hell, it’s $38.59 and it has more maps than you say. You purposefully searched in the most expensive stores and now carry on a strawman argument?
Too many whiners recently…
Nice, looking forward to more content.
I will even pay for that but thanks!
I can call people idiots who bought this game for such a price
Multiplayer, no campaign for £54.99 with only 12 maps, Origin only LMAO
😀
The game costs £25.35.
Not on Origin it doesn’t.
But who would buy on Steam (without sales) and on Origin? It’s like asking for expensive games.
Is it really free or are they just releasing the cut content as free DLC because it’s the trend lately? I wasn’t remotely interested to begin with so I don’t have any idea about this —__—
Which means nothing because everyone has to use Origin.
“no specific data points were shared”
In the UK, it was the biggest Star Wars game launch, ever, according to Chart-Track
‘Star Wars Battlefront’ shoots straight to No1 with the biggest ever
launch for a title based on the Star Wars franchise, selling 117% more
units in its launch week than previous best ‘Star Wars: The Force
Unleashed’.

Why does no one complain when some games are singleplayer-only? And the game costs $38.59 but you apparently purposefully searched in the most expensive stores.
Cause a great single player game will never die, you could always play it again in the future without worrying that the player count will be next to nothing. I mean i have absolutely no problem with paying full price for Singleplayer games like The Witcher 3, Fallout, Dying Light, etc.
All that says it’s best selling starwars Franchise game, nothing more.
Nice!, keep milking idiots EA, it´s your thing, since you don´t make real games anymore.
