A new batch of free content inspired by Solo: A Star Wars Story is coming to Star Wars Battlefront II in the game’s Han Solo Season.
The stars of the new content are new skins for multiple heroes, including Han Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, and Leia. The two new skins for Han and Lando feature the appearances of the young actors from the new movie, Alden Ehrenreich and Donald Glover.
Not only that, but one of Star Wars’ most famous “characters,” the Millennium Falcon, is also getting a fresh new look with the Lando’s Millennium Falcon skin. All of the new skins are available in-game via either Credits or Crystals.
The new content also includes new locations including the Coaxium Mine from the movie and Jabba the Hutt’s Palace. Three new game modes—Hero Showdown, Extraction, and Starfighter Arcade—are also included.
“In Extraction, an infiltration squad must retrieve and escape with a critical payload while fending off enemy forces,” said DICE in a blog post. “Players will join as either attackers or defenders in this asymmetrical and intense mode.”
Hero Showdown was initially introduced a few weeks ago and features two-on-two Heroes vs. Villains battles. Starfighter Arcade features Starfighters from all eras in space combat, further deepening the experience offered by the game.
All of the new content will become available on June 12. DICE said to expect more from Star Wars Battlefront II at EA Play on June 9, where Extraction on Kessel will be available to play for the first time ever.
