This latest footage of the upcoming science-fiction shooter takes an extensive look at the sequel, highlighting the new single-player campaign, locations, class gameplay, and much more. 

It also features commentary by Star Wars: The Force Awakens actor, John Boyega, who does a fair job at hyping things up as he explains the new features included in the hotly anticipated title.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is due for release on PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One on November 17, 2017.

Developer DICE has made a concerted effort to improve on the failings of the original Star Wars Battlefront, chief among which includes the presence of a full campaign to make up for the lack of a dedicated story mode in the original title.

The sequel also includes content from all three eras of the Star Wars universe, namely the prequel, original, and sequel trilogies, so expect the likes of Kylo Ren to be mixing it up with classic characters such as Han Solo and Luke Skywalker. 

In addition to the campaign, Battlefront 2 also features a comprehensive multiplayer mode featuring dedicated servers and huge shootouts. 

EA has promised that the game will pack in a massive amount of content in comparison to its predecessor. It won’t, however, be compatible with PlayStation VR, though will still take advantage of the PS4 Pro for some dazzling visual effects.

The original Star Wars Battlefront was released in November 2015 and acted as something of a soft reboot for the series. Despite its impressive graphics and sound effects, the game was heavily criticised for its lack of content, notably the lack of any kind of single-player component.
