    Great game for quick fast fun, just like the old days of Unreal Tournament. Highly recommended if you like that game-style. Coupled with beautiful graphics and superb sound, this game is unbeaten.

    After playing this game for the last week or so, I can see why some people were disappointed with it but I can say that I am loving it. It looks amazing, it plays just fine and there is plenty to do. It's probably one of the most ambitious games made recently and it maybe doesn't fire on all cylinders but it's the best Star Wars games ever.

    Okay, this game is more like a 8/10, but because so many people are giving this a 0/10, I want to make it fair. After playing for a few hours, it is not that bad. I do not recommend it at $60, but if you got it at $40 like I did, I think that is fair.

    Its the shooter of the year for me. Graphically, its pretty good, but the textures really arent that great. But, its the gameplay that really drives the game. Sure, I'd like more content, like a conquest mode, but its fun. Much better than BO3.

    Most fun I had in a fps/shooter in years, graphics are phenomenal. But campaign and space battles not being in the game is a gaming sin, and missing content obviously may ruin the game for some people, but to me its tolerable since I can afford buying the season pass.

    This game isn't perfect but it comes close in certain areas and is very lacking in other areas. The graphics are beyond amazing and the sound is unbelievable through my surround sound system but its lacking depth in parts of the game. The "campaign" is lacking in every possible area on the only reason it gets mentioned is because there is somewhat of a story.

The "campaign" is lacking in every possible area on the only reason it gets mentioned is because there is somewhat of a story.

    This game does not go beyond the title, in terms of game depth, because it is really a battlefront and heavily focuses on the various battles that are happening during the rebellion. I wish it had more of a story line but I can settle with this. I imagine the next installment will have a story based on the new trilogy.

    This game is a lot of fun, and the sound and visuals are simply top-notch. My only gripe is that I can't engage in split screen online multiplayer games. Playing against the AI gets boring after a while.

If you are on the fence about this game this review is for you. First of all the graphics and sound design are phenomenal(playing on PS4). EA has absolutely nailed the Star Wars universe here. The dense forests of Endor, the snow covered hills and valleys of Hoth have been painstakingly recreated to perfection. You are transported to a galaxy far far away like never before. In terms of game play, its very solid. It is not quite as hardcore as Call of Duty or Halo and leans more toward an arcade experience but the same gun handling skills that rack up kills in CoD and other major shooters will work here as well. Those claiming that this is Battlefield with a Star Wars skin are way off base. Naturally there are similarities since both games share the same developer but as a long time Battlefield vet I can tell you that this is a different animal. There is a wealth of modes here and while some are better than others the sheer amount of options is very welcome. I suspect most people will gravitate toward Walker Assault and Supremacy. These are both big team battle modes which focus on controlling specific areas of the map. If you are interested in a slightly more intimate experience there are plenty of modes which offer smaller player counts and cozier maps. However, the force is not entirely strong with this one as it could be and I do have a few gripes with the title. Respawns can be a bit problematic. I have spawned in the middle of an enemy battalion countless times. Some of the gun play can be erratic at times. In some instances a few laser bolts will put an enemy down for good while other times two dozen will have no effect. This does not happen very often and these could be connection issues or something that could be addressed with a patch but it is worth pointing out. My other issue with the game is that lack of maps at launch. The game ships with 4 planets and while they are all rendered beautifully and a blast to play a larger variety would have been most welcome. With all of that said this game is an absolute blast. Controls feel great and there is enough mode variety here to keep you busy for a long time. I do wish there was a dedicated campaign included but the multiplayer is so well designed that I can overlook the omission. I do want to point out that Star Wars fans will get a little more out of the title than non fans due to the fantastic sense of place which Dice has created here. There are plenty of Easter eggs throughout the maps that will tickle your nostalgia and put a big smile on your face. This game was made to allow players to relive their Star Wars fantasies and while there is still plenty here for shooter fans with no interest in the Star Wars universe, fans will get the most bang for their buck. I’m having an absolute blast. I hope that folks interested in the title give it a try and not be turned away from a great gaming experience by all the hate and misspelled reviews from people who have not even played this title. Most major review sites are giving it an 8 and I would say that is spot on. A well made and insanely fun shooter with a few minor shortcomings which are overshadowed by the fun factor. Expand

There are many different game modes, so you can choose if you want to play close quarters ( blast), capture the flag(cargo), capture bases (supremecy) or one of the other 6 modes. the pace is right, non stop gameplay for domination. yes there is no single player campaign, but im in it for the online :) and oh ya, the graphics are insane

Also, people say that the flying parts of the game are terrible, I have to admit, they are not fantastic but they are good.

With that said, this game has amazing sound, spot on visuals, and while the gameplay is rather average and "point & shoot" simple, it still manages to be fun most of the time and though I stated it is "point & shoot" simple, it still takes a level of skill and quickness to get kills consistently opposed to other fps's. Vehicle use is disappointing, as previous battlefront and even battlefield games you had to first learn how to fly under control before learning how to dogfight, this game it's far too easy to control vehicles and getting kills in vehicles is far too easy and less skillful. Not every game mode is great but it's still fun (though having no galactic conquest is downright confusing). And in defense of this game having no campaign, they warned us consumers about that, so if you buy this unaware of no campaign and it being online only.. then my guess is you're mentally lacking and you need to do your research before dropping $60+ dollars on a game. Anyway I give this game an 8 for reasons that the sound and graphics are amazing, the ability to play as star wars heroes is cool, and while gameplay is simplistic and is more of a "point & shoot" fps, it still takes much more skill and quickness to get kills consistently than other fps's... i.e. Call of Duty! And the maps are big, interactive, and much more detailed than other repetitive fps's out there. Expand

Drop zone is smaller 10 v 10 fights to control drop pods all over the map. Finally is heroes vs villains this is a fun and chaotic 6v6 mode where 3 people control the hero pickup characters and 3 serve as bodyguards in a search and destroy type mode first to get 5 points wins. The only negatives are the lack of a story and only 2 people in a party at a time overall the game is great no questions asked Expand

The lack content really hits the game the hardest here only offering a fun survival mode that will have you fending off waves of enemies. Survival entertain you for the first handful of times you play it. The other notable offline mode is battles similar to survival being that it does not have much replay value. Battles is a mode similar to kill confirmed in the Call of Duty games. Star Wars Battlefront is one of the better multiplayer with one of the best looking games that is out there but once you run out of things to do there isn't much reason to keep playing it. Finally Star Wars Battlefront is a good game that i enjoy 7.5/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Battlefront is everything I've ever asked for from star wars and it really does make me feel as if Im in the Star Wars Universe. Beautiful game, well made, quick to learn and just all out fun to play. However, EA said they wanted to replicate the star wars battles yet there is a lack of space battles which sort of defeats the point of star wars. It would of been great if we had both battles of the death star in the game. There are also other maps they could of made that were in the original trilogy. Im also very disapointed with the amount of playable maps that are available. Playing these maps over and over again will eventually become boring. So hopefully they will add maps in future dlc. The fact that there isn't a single player doesn't bother me at all, star wars isn't the only game to not have a single player. Overall the game is great fun, love playing it, community is friendly and I highly recommend it to people who just want to feel like they are a kid again and fly the millennium Falcon. Good Job EA.

Dice has done a great job with transferring the atmosphere and gadgets from the saga into this action packed nostalgia trip. Nothing but stunning graphics and awesome sounds makes Battlefront a game that will suck you in in no time!
    The setting aside, the game plays wonderful. Controlling an infantry trooper or vehicle alike, the controls are fully responsive and feels natural at first, but in order to really shine, you must of course master everything. The game modes, although limited in numbers, will keep you playing this game for a long time. I've had a hard time trying to stop play Fighter Squadron and try out all the other modes, it really is that good. Controlling a tie fighter in the middle of a raging aerial combat really is a cool as I've always expected.
    Many of the reviews state that the lack of content should be rewarded with a close to 0 score. Well, if you are a hardcore Battlefield grinder and enjoy the confusion of hundreds of guns and gadgets, I get your point. Myself, I really like what Dice did here: kept it simple and understandable. Unlocking everything will keep you busy for a long time, and most importantly, every unlock MEANS something. In Battlefield, you get tons of stuff throughout the game which actually creates an inflation.
    There is off course flaws to this diamond as well, but the pros out-weight the cons in so many ways that I do not see any other way to finish this review than a big applause to Dice for delivering the game of the year.

    But they did not only nail the visuals and sound. The game also FEELS like Star Wars. Time to kill is relatively high, ammo is unlimited and most weapons are fairly inaccurate. So lasers are flying everywhere,all the time, hitting stuff. Those lasers aren't just from small arms off course. AT AT's, AT ST's, Laser turrets and Aircraft are also blasting away. Not to mention the orbital strike, and if you look up you might even see a battle going on in space. It is epic and it is Star Wars. If you like Star Wars, you need to play this game. Period.

New game modes, new customization options, a new weapon system, and a great power up and "star card" system set this game apart from what we've seen in Battlefield - and that's not a bad thing. What I looked for in Battlefront was a new and exciting Star Wars game - EA did not drop the bar (in this aspect). The actual game modes were just so fun - especially fighter squadron, heroes vs villains, blast, walker assault and supremacy. I cant stress this enough: vehicles are great. It's just so fun to step into an AT-AT or X-Wing and go berserk on the enemy. Long story short, the game is great. Get it. Expand

    I'm really shocked I love this game as much as I do. Of course, I love Star Wars... I'm a 27 year old man living in the Midwest. The graphics are absolutely stunning, the score is so on point I'm actually shocked it wasn't scored by John Williams himself. The game play is fast paced and brutal, but not so crazy you couldn't sit down with your 9 year old son and blast some Troopers. ThereI'm really shocked I love this game as much as I do.

    Be prepared for some fast-paced action. There is no such thing as "think before you shoot". You have to go for every shot and every opportunity. Really fun!

    Also: as a beginner the game is hard because the "pro's" have a) more experience and b) better weapons / cards. But this challenges me to become even better!

This isn't your normal FPS, and even though some say it's dumbed down. Those who are very talented at FPS will do better than those who aren't, but it still gives you a chance to become better overtime, and is a fun learning curve.

    With aerial battles being one of my highlights. I'm a tad disappointed that they removed the space battles, but I'm sure one of the DLC's will contain this.

    Visually one of the best console games I've seen. Especially in the forest scenes. Game play wise it's great. There are a lot of complaints around un-intuitive controls.

However I will admit learning the hero (Vader, Luke, etc.) specials are odd, but they are evoking powers that are not common to shooters, similar with the aviation. Once you learn a hero or a ship, it's fine.

    Main reason for this review is to counter the people who are reviewing this game for what it is not. It does not have a story mode. If you want a story mode do not get this game. If you do not like playing online shooter games, do not get this game. It's amazing in my opinion for what it is, but obviously it's going to suck for what it is not. There is a local game mode, but it's minimal. I've had a good time with a buddy on split screen with a couple of the scenarios, but mainly this game is built for online shooter fans.

    If you are a Star Wars fan. This game is fun. They did a good job of catering to the movies and creating the feel of the Star Wars world. There is something pretty awesome about walking out onto the battlefield as Darth Vader and using your light saber to deflect the enemy shots back at the enemies. Even for a short term novelty experience, I think this game is worth it.

    - Many different game modes to choose from. Walker assault - fighter squadron - heroes vs villains are my personal favorite.
    - Fast paced game play. Instant re-spawns
    - Nice level design
    - As of today servers are populated and reliable.
    - You can easily get in and out of matches and do not have to dedicate time to enjoy the game. What i mean is if i only have 30 min to kill i can play a few matches and have a great time. If i have 4 hours to kill i can still enjoy playing and work towards unlocks.

    The Bad
    - Easy skill level may turn off more serious gamers.
    - Most blasters do not feel unique.
    - Some game modes are very short when i would like them to be a bit longer.
    - No character customization or weapon mods.
    - An AI to shoot at during multiplayer.
    - Becoming a hero requires a random pickup instead of being a reward to a skillful player.
    - I would like more heros and villains to choose from. #whereschewy

EA have been adding more content over the months since launch and the initial price tag has now been fully justified.

    The lack of weapon customisation and small gains obtained from upgrading star cards I see as overall very positive because it ensures the most hardcore gamers don't get big advantages over those who don't have so much to play. It maintains some level of balance, keeps matches close and engaging. The hero power ups enable even the worst players to get a load of kills and top the table at the end of the match. The training and single player missions are a very good way to practice before jumping into the online matches and I am very glad they are there.

    Overall Star Wars Battlefront is one of the best games I have ever played and receives a well deserved 9/10 from me. This is a game I can see myself playing for a long time to come. I can't wait for the DLC!

    The gameplay can be extremely satisfying, and I’m no FPS pro. I’m a veteran of games like Doom and Halo, but never was good at ‘twitchy’ games like Battlefront or Call of Duty. Perseverance does pay off, with better side arms and accessories, and with gameplay experience that translates to a better understanding of why and how to attack a mission. That perspective gives a better gameplay experience than just running to the front, shooting, and dying, over and over. I’m a stats guy, and though mine are not good – I still take pride in improvement, and the fun moment of a plan being executed.
    Some missions will be more fun depending on the gameplay experience you want to have. Too much run and gun? Try Extraction or Cargo Run, where stealth can pay dividends. Playing as the heroes is always fun, though difficult at times. And the Starfighter battles are good. Not great – like the old X-Wing and TIE Fighter games on PC. They tend to be a big fur ball, like an old cartoon, but it’s still fun to drop in on every once in a while.
    If you like Star Wars, and like FPS at all, you will love playing Battlefront. Until you get hosed 1kill-9deaths in a mission. Then you will decide how much you like it – and do you want to improve. There is no wrong answer there, and I do look forward to a full single player in the next SW Battlefront.

    I must say the game has improved a lot since it's launch. At first I didn't care much for it, but this game shows its true colors the more you play it.

The new SW Battlefront is extremely well made and doesn't have nearly as many problems as people are claiming. My 'Cons' list might be drastically longer than the 'Pros', but make no mistake this is an excellent game that I am still playing constantly.

    Pros -
    Presentation: The game looks and plays incredibly. Not only as a Star Wars entity, but as a game on its own. It almost makes me feel like I'm a kid, playing at the arcade on some high-budget Star Wars game that will never in a million years make it to console. But this truly is that game. The musical numbers from the trilogy are well selected, and it sounds and looks about as much as Star Wars as you can get.

    Multiplayer: Playing with friends is easy to set up and endlessly fun.

    Cons -

    Overall Game Interface: The title screen and menus for this game feel like a damn Health Insurance website. Having to register for some worthless EA account isn't exactly a pleasure either.

    Imbalanced Game Mechanics: During flying mode (Flight Squadron) it is pretty obvious that the Imperials have a disadvantage. While Rebel ships are equipped with shields, Tie fighters only have a boost which doesn't do much good in a battle. Maybe it would if this were a race...(or a Pod race)

    Heroes: I do not care for Hero mode. Nostalgia is not as important as gameplay and these guys are nearly impossible to kill unless you gang up on them.

    Simplicity: It's a simple game. You start on a menu, you select a game, and then you shoot lasers at each other and that's pretty much it. If you want more out of your video games, or just a more in depth open world choice-based experience, you won't find that in Battlefront.

    Content Releases: 50 dollars is a little steep for just the first quarter of an expansion (which so far is only 1 new level). And the 'new heroes' are just characters we already had (Nien Numb and a Rodian), with different color clothing. It just reeks of 'Scammery'.

    Once again, this game will grow on you. At first it is very simple, almost too simple. You start with very little inventory, and basically no customization options. But the more you play, the more you are able to unlock and you start to see how in depth this game really is. There are far more items, weapons and fighting mechanics than what seems at first glance. And I can't stress enough how much more fun it is to play if you have a friend or two. That seems to be how this game was meant to be played. Being a major Star Wars nerd doesn't hurt either.

I understand there is very little depth to the game as it's just multiplayer but that is battlefront. There is a lot of DLC in the pipeline for release which looks good and now that more maps and turning point has been added it's great. I don't understand other users saying there is no plan to the game and they keep getting killed. It's all about not rushing in and gradually working towards the points if your going to take them. My KD is 3.37. Any way the game is brilliant and have never been so addicted to caring about KD since MW2. Overall the game is great in every way but more content is needed to give this game more variation. Better Customisation is also a must. Expand

    Looks amazing! Seriously, I mean WOW! You do feel like you are in the SW world. Unfortunately it goes downhill from here. Cons: 1. There is no story mode, so that limits your experience. The solo or co-op missions are severely lacking. It’s just do the same thing 15 times. No, seriously, that’s it. Really!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had never played a Battlefront game before this but I think that's the reason I like it so much. Ok I will admit it is kind of dull later on because the base game only has like 11 guns and only a few maps that are good but if you like Star Wars and Battlefield then I'm pretty sure you will like this.

    A huge surprise for me! After around 2 or 3 years away from FPS games I really thought that I would never love a game of that kind as much as I loved this one.

    Battlefront is one of my favorite FPS's. The game is highly addictive and fun to play with friends. You don't need to have watched Star Wars to understand the game.

The controls are good and the multiplayer is well balanced, but the number of maps in the game is unsatisfactory. They keep making DLC add ons for the game, which you can access if you have a "season pass", that being said I'm not surprised, that a lot of players feel cheated right now, myself included. Despite this, the game is still a lot of fun. Expand

    Star Wars Battlefront have amazing climate from the Star Wars universe. The positive aspects of the Star Wars Battlefront is:
    - Original sound in the game, attention to detail, beautiful graphics, variety maps, fun in multiplayer and in single (split screen), and a lot of stuff to unlock.
    Negatives:
    - Price and too small content for people without season pass.

    Feels like that people that complain about the game actually never played the battlefront series before, I mean its a great game, a really battlefront tittle, with a few changes, the only thing that I think is a con for the game is the season pass that add maps that should be on the original game.

    I enjoyed it so much that even though I own it on Xbox One, I rebought it for my PS4 due to switching sides.

    Also, do NOT buy this game for a single player game/story. This was created and built as an online shooter.

    El mejor juego de Star Wars que he jugado. Es un shotter muy entretenido y cuando lo juegan dos jugadores mejora aun más. Pero los modos de juego son muy limitados y la campaña brilla por su ausencia

    One of the most unfairly maligned games for PS4. Simple FPS third person combat, beautiful settings, brilliant game modes, great progression systems, and just an all around fun game that stands the test of time.

    Lack of content? Sure. But that's why we have Battlefront 2! Can't wait.

    There is no denying that Star Wars Battlefront left a lot to be desired, it is quite a flawed game. But, as an avid Star Wars fan, I had a blast playing this game. The game looks so beautiful it definitely throws in the argument of quantity vs quality. Some say the quality of the game wasn't enough to compensate for the lack of content. I think it was, but it's completely up to you. IThere is no denying that Star Wars Battlefront left a lot to be desired, it is quite a flawed game.

    This game was one of the first games that I logged 500+ hours in. IMO, this game is the definitive Star Wars game, even though I can see all the arguments against it. You can tell at launch it was very rushed, as there were only about 8 game modes (of which only 3 were good), about 4 unique maps and no single player story. After all of the updates and making the DLC free, this game works.This game was one of the first games that I logged 500+ hours in.

After all of the updates and making the DLC free, this game works. If feels like Star Wars in ways that no game has felt before. I haven't even gotten into the graphics. This is, by far, one of the best looking games ever. It's now 5 years later and there is no game now that matches this games colours and models and just overall completeness in the looks. The heroes and villains and the starships are the most unique parts of these games, and they do not disappoint (except the fact that you have to run around the map looking for a pickup). If you get the chance to experience this game and it's DLC, the Bespin and Death Star maps are my favourite level designs, maybe ever. I might be biased cause I love Star Wars, but this game is just that good after 5 years. Expand

    It's not the most complex shooter, but it's the ideal pick-up-and-play experience for Star Wars fans. Stunning environments, solid shooting and immersive sound design mask the shortcomings. [Jan 2016, p.82]

    With the new film of the space opera saga finally on the big screen and the release of Battlefront's new sequel, both after a decade overdue, it is definitely the best time to be a Star Wars fan. The game itself is a dream-come-true for fans, and the Star Wars spectacle is strong in this one. However, if it is depth and longevity you seek... this is not the game you are looking for.

    Spectacular production values help to make this game enjoyable in the early going, but it soon enough shows that it is painfully lacking in terms of maps and depth in its current form. [Issue#265, p.72]
