Star Wars Battlefront 2 is scheduled for release on PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One on November 17, 2017. The sci-fi shooter will boast a number of improvements over its predecessor, chief among which includes a fully-fledged single-player campaign, something which many criticised the original for lacking. There’s also more Heroes and Villains to pick from this time, with characters such as Kylo Ren from the new Star Wars films putting in an appearance alongside veterans Luke Skywalker and Han Solo.
