Details On Star Wars Battlefront Fighter Squadron Mode

At Gamescom, Electronic Arts have released a brand new trailer featuring gameplay from a new Fighter Squadron mode which includes epic Star Wars scenes with Rebel and Imperial ships facing off in intense dogfights.

This mode features iconic Rebel X-Wings and A-Wings, as well as the dreaded Imperial Tie Fighters and Tie Interceptors, Fighter Squadron lets you engage in aerial battles with up to 20 players, and AI-controlled ships joining the fight. There is also playable well known vehicles such as the Millennium Falcon and Slave One which can be used by getting a special powerup, that gives you a few minutes piloting these recognizable ships. Your team’s objective is to destroy more fighters than the other team. If your team reaches the score limit of 200 kills or has the most kills when the time limit is over, your side wins!

Here is the new trailer:

And here are some new screenshots from the Fighter Squadron gameplay:

Associate Designer Peter Forsman has said “Visually, it’s extremely exhilarating. The sky is crawling of enemy ships, and you see sparks and explosions from ships about to be taken down. On top of that, you’ve got this great music, sound design, and gameplay, making the whole thing feel like an authentic Star Wars™ dogfight.”
