Electronic Arts and DICE have released two screenshots from Star Wars: Battlefront, revealing its Sullust environment. Star Wars: Battlefront is powered by DICE’s Frostbite 3 engine and is scheduled for a November 17th release. Enjoy!

Holly crap it looks so realistic.The lightning and vapor from lava in first screenshot,just nice
I highly doubt this is raw in-game footage…More like in-engine + CGI effects applied after.
More like “here guys, this is how the game could be” and before the launch more like “and here is how it looks now”.
Have you played DICE’s games since 2010? When it comes to image quality, they’re a leader. Frostbite 3 looks amazing and they can definitely pull off these visuals with an updated version.
it’s EA. people are just searching for reasons to hate. the game is probably not gonna epic but their frostbite engine already proved itself in the past even if a downgrade happens.
It doesn’t look much different from BF4, there’s really nothing that impressive in that pic, looks just like Frostbite 3 in BF4.
Lava looks like ketchup, don’t think the artists have ever seen how it looks IRL

console will ruin this……
Great point! My guess is they stylized it to match all the red and white Empire iconography coming out of the Star Wars teaser trailers:

So they are changing the natural colour of molten rock just to match the Empire’s flag?
The molten rock on Sullust is red colored. This isn’t some Earth lava. Haven’t you been?
The bullsshoot is strong on this one
DICE hasn’t really ever made bullshots for their Frostbite games.
There is nothing that amazing in that screenshot, looks a bit like Altai Range from BF4, without the lava.

It’s a stylistic choice. Red is an important colour in the upcoming Star Wars film.
How am i supposed to take the lava seriously when i’m playing the game, when it looks like ketchup/kool aid!
this better have a 3rd person view point in there
No reason to think this will not be delivered at release. It’s the age of PBR and Photogrammetry. Embrace it.
