Today is the first conference for E3 2018, and EA has the floor. This event is called EA Play and it is where every new EA title is revealed, including new changes to the Origin platform. Included in the show were new details coming up for Star Wars: Battlefront II.

One of the first things stated on the floor by the Battlefront II representative was how the players were not pleased with how Battlefront II added the Loot Crate system. He then said:

We had to take a step back and make sure we could deliver a game that our players really wanted.

Touching base on recent updates to the game was his next step, and speaking on the Han Solo Season which is currently underway. New content from Solo: A Star Wars Story will be coming in the next week.

Coming this summer is a new Squad System to help you and your friends connect easier for team play. A new Starfighter mode will also be coming, focusing on dogfighting with Hero ships.

Another mode will be included to Battlefront II and it involves some pretty big levels. It will be a multiplayer sandbox experience where players will battle over command posts. Players will also be attacking and taking over capital ships during this battle. I can already imagine taking down one of these behemoths out of the sky and parking it on top of a group of unsuspecting stormtroopers.

For those of you who are fans of The Clone Wars, your wait is finally over. The levels from this part of the Star Wars Universe will take place on the planet Geonosis, including the largest level ever built for a Battlefront game. There are also new Heros and Villains to choose from in the upcoming content. These include General Grievous and the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, along with Anakin Skywalker and Count Dooku.
