The free update will go live for all platforms on Wednesday, April 29 and includes several new locations to the Supremacy and Instant Action game modes.

The Age of Rebellion section contains locations of Hoth, Tatooine, Yavin 4, Death Star II, and Scarif, which first appeared in 2015’s Star Wars Battlefront.

All the new locations will be fought exclusively on the ground in Supremacy, but some will have access to pilot starfighters.

Meanwhile, Scarif and Crait will be added to the Heroes and Villains game modes and the Co-op mode will now be playable in offline solo play.

The update also adds new cosmetics and outfits for Rey, Kylo Ren, Emperor Palpatine, and Darth Maul.

Star Wars Battlefront II originally launched in November 2017 and received 25 content updates, including completely overhauling the game’s progression system to minimize loot boxes. DICE said it is transitioning the game from regular content updates to individual events such as double XP and in-game challenges after The Battle on Scarif update.

The studio also announced last week that the final content update for Battlefield V will be coming this summer.
