Coming early in October to PS4 will be your chance to put Star Wars Battlefront to an official BETA test!

This test will feature Walker Assault on Hoth, a 40-player multiplayer battle featuring Rebels and the Empire. Walker Assault will also give you the chance to play as two of the most iconic characters in the Star Wars universe: Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. The Beta will also feature a special Survival Mission on Tatooine, where you and a Rebel friend must fight back waves of Imperial forces!

In addition they were excited to reveal a brand-new mode that will also be available in the Beta, Drop Zone. More details to come on this one in the weeks ahead. Keep it with RCG for when the news breaks.

Alongside the Star Wars Battlefront Beta will be the Star Wars Battlefront Companion experience. Available during the Beta on the official site, the Star Wars Battlefront Companion experience features the strategic card game Base Command, and lets you earn in-game Credits that unlock Star Cards, weapons, and more in Star Wars Battlefront.

In addition to Base Command, the Companion also lets Rebels and Imperials alike check game stats and progression, customize loadouts and appearance, connect with friends, and get notified when they’re playing Star Wars Battlefront — as well as gather intel on their stats and progression so you can see how you match up! The Star Wars Battlefront Companion will be available on web, the Apple App Store and Google Play store prior to the release of Star Wars Battlefront on November 17th.
