Being developed by DICE, ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’ is an FPS experience which also allows players to gain control of several vehicles featured in the movies including AT-STs, Snowspeeders, Speeder Bikes, and more.
MakingStarWars reports that the game will allow players to choose some of the characters featured in the movie – both from the Republic and Empire sides.

Coming to the game’s story, it is reportedly based on the original trilogy, but the campaign may bridge the gap between Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and Star Wars: The Force Awakens accompanied by a few scenes from the movie.
Lastly, Star Wars: Battlefront will feature around five DLC packs – 2-3 of which will be based exclusively on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In addition to this, some of the vehicles scheduled to make an appearance in the movie will also appear in the game. Excited?
