Star Wars Battlefront II has generated more hype than even the upcoming movie the Last Jedi with its cool and dashing single player campaign trailer.
The game director confirmed that it will have a very expansive storyline that begins after the movie the Return of the Jedi ends up to the latest movie The Force Awakens. The actual storyline in the game will span as long as 30 years which includes some of the iconic characters from the film including Yoda, Luke Skywalker and Darth Maul. A lot of changes are undergoing at EA studios as the company made some announcements in the past day.
While the pre-orders for Star Wars Battlefront II has already opened for PS4, Xbox One and PC platforms, the game will not feature a season pass this time. Electronic Arts and Activision, the two major players in the gaming industry is undergoing a massive overhaul recently. While Activision faced a huge debacle with their last Call of Duty game set in space, Electronic Arts isn’t going great either with duds like Battlefield Hardline and Battlefront that didn’t get as popular as the company expected.

It will offer a uniform experience for all gamers on board and there will be some perks for those who choose to get into the subscription service.
