While I’m still having a blast playing the new Twilight on Hoth map we got last week, it’s great to know some more new Star Wars Battlefront content is coming later this month!
We found out last week that the first bit of DLC that’s part of the season pass will be called Outer Rim, and will feature a new map of Jabba’s palace. But now EA has provided more details on all the new content we will be getting in the Outer Rim expansion pack.
Here are all the details from the official Star Wars Battlefront site, as well as some new images of the maps and new hero and villain characters that will be available:
Star Wars Battlefront Outer Rim
Fight among the factories of Sullust and battle within Jabba the Hutt’s palace on Tatooine in the Star Wars™ Battlefront™ Outer Rim digital expansion.
Explore New Locations
Blast enemies in the smelting factory or along the industrial pipes and platforms of Sullust or fight through Jabba’s throne room and sail barge garage on Tatooine.
Play as Iconic Heroes
New playable hero characters will have you shooting first with Greedo or targeting foes with precision as Nien Nunb.
New Mode: Extraction
Rebel forces have entered some of the most dangerous places in the Outer Rim in order to extract a valuable shipment of resources. Now they must bring the shipment to their transport ship before time runs out. The Empire has arrived to stop them from reaching the extraction point.
Become More Powerful on the Battlefront
Arm yourself with the new Relby V-10 rifle and DT-12 blaster pistol and collect and equip the Scatter Gun, Dioxis Grenade, and Adrenaline Stim Star Cards.
No exact date was given for when the Outer Rim will be released, but we’ll be able to play as Greedo and Nien Nunb on Jabba’s palace later this month!
