Boba Fett gets nerfed in upcoming Star Wars Battlefront Xbox One, PS4 patch

Au revoir auto-lock!

Last week, the PC version of Star Wars Battlefront was updated with a patch that increased AT-AT health on Endor, tweaked some weapons and altered Boba Fett's missile. This patch came along with news that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One users could look forward to an update for Battlefront in the near future.

Well, the patch is coming on December 16th to the Xbox one and PS4 and it's bringing the same changes to the console versions of the game.

That means that Boba Fett's missiles will no longer auto-lock. Yup, auto-lock is gone. 

Unfortunately, this patch won't address horrible matchmaking issues players are encountering, but you can check out what the patch will address below. EA and DICE say they are working on a fix for the matchmanking though, so keep your heads up.
