Star Wars Battlefront II’s gameplay reveal includes a 40-player battle

4.5
The first gameplay footage of Star Wars Battlefront II will show off a 40-player battle between Game Changers, YouTube stars, Twitch streamers, and more.

At EA Play on June 10th at 12:30 p.m. PT, players will get to see the Assault on Theed, one of Star Wars Battlefront II‘s new multiplayer battles from the prequel trilogy, in which the Clone Troopers will mount a desperate defense against the invading forces of the Separatist Battle Droids.

“Sleek N-1 Starfighters and Vulture Droids scream overhead spewing light and fire. Nimble AT-RT Walkers race around corners, pursued by roaring AATs. Agile Clone Jet Troopers hop from rooftop to rooftop, while rampaging B2 Super Battle Droids level everything in their path,” EA writes. “Armies of Clones and Droids sprint across cover, their blazing weapons shattering the tranquility of the once-peaceful capital of Naboo. And at the center of the swirling melee the lightsabers and Darth Maul and Rey cut swaths through the ranks of the battling troopers.”


The game was officially unveiled at Star Wars Celebration and features a full single-player campaign that follows Iden Versio, the commander of an elite Imperial special forces unit called Infero Squad, as she seeks to avenge the Emperor following the events of Return of the Jedi.

Star Wars Battlefront II launches November 17th, 2017 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

Walker assault on Battlefront was already 40 players. Not sure why people are surprised by that. How about some 64v64?
