Star Wars Battlefront is due out in Europe this Friday. As previously reported on PSU.com, the shooter will run at 900p on Sony's current-generation console and has been tested by Digital Foundry to run at a stable 60fps. The game will support a $49.99 Season Pass, which offers gamers a host of extra content including a Shoot First emote and early access to upcoming title expansion packs. Battlefront is also receiving a special Darth Vader-themed DualShock 4 for PS4 owners looking to customise their gaming experience.
Star Wars Battlefront eschews the single-player campaign seen in previous instalments of the popular franchise, and focuses on large-scale multiplayer battles. Gamers will find themselves taking on the role of a Rebel or Imperial trooper as they battle it out on a number of iconic locations throughout the Star Wars universe, such as Tatooine, Sullust, Endor, and Hoth. In addition, you can also take control of legendary 'Hero and Villain' characters from the series, including Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Emperor Palpatine, and Han Solo.
