The Imperials have shown up to prevent the Rebels from reaching the transport. The premise of this mode is that Rebels have captured a valuable shipment and need to move it to a transport before time runs out. The Outer Rim DLC will also add a new game mode called Extraction. Players who purchase the DLC will also have the opportunity to try two new weapons, the Relby V-1o rifle and the DT-12 blaster pistol, as well as new Star Cards. Also included in the pack are two new playable heroes: the Sullustan rebel Nien Nunb and the Rodian bounty hunter Greedo. The new pack will include two new maps, one located in an industrialized area of Sullust and the other in Jabba's palace on Tatooine.

Today, EA detailed the Outer Rim DLC pack, the first paid content to be added to Battlefront since the game launched. The packs will include new heroes, maps, weapons, and game modes. Those four will explore, in order, the Outer Rim, Bespin, the Death Star, and a mystery location TBA later this year.

EA happily obliged, announcing a $50 season pass as well as free updates that expanded the game's offerings.ĭetails about the Battlefront Season Pass have been sparse, but it has been confirmed to include four separate add-ons.
