Star Wars: Battlefront 2 Age Of Rebellion Update Patch Notes
By ESR on 27 februarie 2020
Star Wars: Battlefront II developer DICE has detailed the next major update coming to the game. The Age of Rebellion update, which launches on February 26 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, includes new co-op locations, the Ewok Hunter and ISB Agent 4 characters, four new weapons, improvements for Hero characters, and two new Heroes vs. Villains maps, among other notable changes. [Update: The new patch is now available on all platforms.]
The Age of Rebellion update is themed around the original Star Wars trilogy. Starting with the new special units, the Ewok Hunter is a special version of the Ewok who carries a bow (with dual firing modes) and can use a “Valiant Horn” that can be blown to improve attacks and increase damage resistance. The Ewok Hunter can also throw Wisties at enemies to burn them.
The ISB agent, meanwhile, is a dual-wielding character who carries two RK-3 blasters. The character can also run extra fast and receive limited damage when the Assault Training ability is activated. She also has an Imperial Intel ability that scans the nearby area and reveals the location of the closest enemies.
Outside of the new characters, the Age of Rebellion update introduces seven new locations for co-op, including Yavin, Death Star II, Endor, Hoth, Tatooine, Kessel, and Jabba’s Palace. The new weapons added in the update include the E-11D medium-range blaster, the DL-17 short-range pistol, the T-21 heavy blaster, and the Cycler rifle for long-range shooting. These four weapons can be unlocked by completing certain challenges in co-op.
The Age of Rebellion update also makes changes to a range of heroes, most notably to Leia, and specifically her E11 blaster. This weapon has been buffed with increased start damage from 32 to 36 and end damage from 17 to 19. The weapon’s recoil has been reduced, too, while the blaster fire spread is also reduced.
The two new Heroes vs. Villains maps, meanwhile, are MC85 Star Cruiser and Resurgent-Class Star Destroyer. This is just a small sampling of the high-level changes. You can see the full Battlefront II Age of Rebellion patch notes below, as posted by DICE.
