While EA gave us a brief outline on what to expect in terms of DLC for Star Wars Battlefront, an anonymous Star Wars Battlefront forums user (and Redditor) has revealed the specifics on what EA is planning. Of course, until EA/DICE confirms this information – it's all hearsay. With that in mind, the leak reveals, DLC release dates, new heroes, modes, maps and more.
EA has already stated a March release for Outer Rim, a paid DLC pack that's part of the Season Pass, but the leak suggests a more specific date of release, two new games modes and new weapons.
*Bolding and brackets included by the author of the article.
Star Wars Battlefront 'Outer Rim' will be released on March 12th, 2016. Fight among the factories of Sullust and battle within Jabba the Hutt's Palace on tattooine. Two new game modes will be introduced in this Expansion pack, along with new weapons and abilities.
Invasion [game mode]: Will be the the largest multiplayer mode in the game. In this 30v30 match, Players will fight as Rebels or Imperials on the outskirts of Sullust. This game mode will be similar to Walker Assault but include more vehicles for the Empire and New Vehicles for the Rebels. The objective for the game is for the Empire to recapture the factories of Sullust that have been overrun by Rebels. The Empire will have 4 on rail AT-AT's, two will be playable at the start of the match with another two joining the match based on the rebels ability to defend.
Scramble [game mode]: In this 12v12 Match, Fight as Rebels and Imperials through the secret passages of Jabba the Hutt's Palace. This game mode will be introducing new Star Cards and both sides may use traps to fool the enemy. But be careful, Jabba's Rancor will be hostile to both sides.
Another paid DLC pack that was detailed by EA last month was Bespin, this DLC was set to be made available to Season Pass owners on Summer of 2016. According to the leak, Bespin will include two new heroes (Chewbacca and Lando Calrissian), render one hero unplayable (Han Solo) and a new game mode.
Star Wars Battlefront 'Bespin' It's hunt or be hunted in this action-packed experience set in the Cloud City of Bespin.
That will be released July 17th, 2016. In this expansion pack, you will see two new heroes introduced, Chewbacca and Lando Calrissian. All previous Heroes will still be playable, except for Han Solo. As all game modes are set after Han Solo was frozen in Carbonite.
Bounty Hunt [game mode]: Play as iconic Bounty hunters in this hunt or be hunted. Locate Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker before the escape. (More details about this Expansion Pack will be added in March).
One of the last DLC packs EA detailed in January was the Death Star DLC pack, set to be available to Season Pass holders in Fall 2016. It was detailed to include "one of the most iconic locations in the Star Wars," but no other context was given. The leaker didn't have the full set of details on this DLC, besides a release date and the knowledge that a new game mode will be introduced to the game that will recreate the 'Famous Destruction of the Death Star.'
Star Wars Battlefront 'Death Star' That’s no moon! One of the most iconic locations in the Star Wars universe makes its debut in Star Wars Battlefront on November 12th, 2016. Full details about this expansion are not known to me, as I have not been updated with the chosen pathways.
What I do know is that there will be a new game mode that is a space related battle, reenacting the famous destruction of the Death Star as seen in the movie.
This expansion pack will support all of the smaller game modes
