While much of the talk around Star Wars and single-player games based on the franchise hasn’t been rosy this week, a new trailer for Star Wars Battlefront 2, one that focuses on the game’s story-based campaign, offers a bit of hope.
While the rest of the trailer is dripping with classic Star Wars imagery — TIE Fighters, X-Wings, AT-ATs and the Millennium Falcon all appear — the single-player campaign teaser also reinforces that this is a Star Wars game of multiple eras.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 will be released on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One on Nov. 17.
Star Wars Battlefront 2’s single-player trailer quickly sets up the story: The Emperor is dead after the destruction of the second Death Star, and Imperial Commander Iden Versio is going to do her part to exact revenge on the Rebellion.
