Für den Shooter Star Wars: Battlefront steht ab sofort ein neues Update zum Download bereit, welches nicht nur zahlreiche Verbesserungen und Änderungen mit sich bringt, sondern auch einen Offline-Modus.

Zum sogenannten Gefechts-Modus, der offline in Angriff genommen werden kann, steht ab sofort ein ausführliches Gameplay-Video im Anhang dieser Zeilen für euch bereit.

Zudem warten im weiteren Verlauf dieser News auch noch die Patch-Notes zum neuesten Software-Flicken auf euch, allerdings vorerst nur in englischer Sprache.
