    Outer Rim is an honest DLC offering beautiful cards, a new and fun way and some attractive novelties. For holders of season-pass it is a very good opportunity to do it again. Indeed, the content does not necessarily justify the 14.99 & euro;. Unless you are a big fan of Greedo or Nien Nunb. It's up to you.

    EA pushes out their first DLC for Battlefront! So, is it worth your time and money? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    First of all, no new planets?    EA pushes out their first DLC for Battlefront! So, is it worth your time and money? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    First of all, no new planets? Seriously? Just a few maps that were available on launch for Battlefront II? Are you kidding me? Well, let's just start the review!

    1. No New Planets
    Read the text above

    2. More Unbalanced Star Cards And weapons
    Outer Rim adds 2 new Star Cards and 3 weapons, Dioxis Grenade, Scatter Gun, Adreline Stim (Star Cards), Relby V-10 Rifle and DT-12 Blaster (Weapons). But you'll never use any of these since you have to earn them by completing Hutt Contracts, which takes alot of time. And it's not even worth completing them.

    3. More "Iconic" Heroes
    Outer Rim also adds 2 new "Iconic" Heroes to play as, well one of them is a Villain. Nien Numb and Greedo. You may be thinking "Well they're not really iconic are they, in fact who is Nien Numb?" Well, in that case you are 100% correct. None of these characters are iconic, they just had a few lines in 1 movie (A New Hope & Return of the Jedi). If you still don't know who Nien Numb, he's the alien who sat next to Lando in Return of the Jedi. Actual iconic heroes and villains would be better. You know like Yoda, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan, Grand Moff Tarking, just a few examples of characters who did more than just talk.

    4. New Maps
    Outer Rim features 4 new maps to play on. Jabbas Palace and some factory on Sullust. Which is a total rip off since Jabbas Palace was already in Battlefront II at launch, and they promised us new planets. Sullust Factories doesn't count as planets, EA.

    5. 1 New Mode
    Outer Rim also gives you a new gamemode to play on! It's called Extraction. It's basically just like TF2's payload gamemode. The only difference is that Extraction is already dead.

    That's pretty much all that Outer Rim offers. Some weapons, star card, maps, a gamemode and 2 "Iconic" characters from the Star Wars universe. So no, this really isn't worth your money. It also made the base game worse by adding a forced playlist.    … Full Review »

    Outer Rim has a great play mode – Extraction.
    And it comes with a great new location – Jabba’s Palace. I love exploring this palace, even    Outer Rim has a great play mode – Extraction.
    And it comes with a great new location – Jabba’s Palace. I love exploring this palace, even when I’m not fighting – sometimes I’ll wander around just looking at things.

    Worth it for sure – and I anticipate the same from Bespin and the Death Star – get the Season Pass, I did.    … Full Review »
