New Star Wars Battlefront mode detailed

Star Wars Battlefront will feature a territory control game mode called Supremacy.

In this mode, teams will be tasked with capturing and controlling five strategic points dotted across the map. Each team starts with two points in their territory and under their control and will wrestle over the fifth.

Once that point is captured, the control points will need to be captured in a specific order for each team. So it sounds like you won’t be able to go rogue and sneak behind enemy lines to capture lesser defended points.

While it’s played on Battlefront’s largest maps, players will be spawned close to the action. This focus on one point at a time, according to Lead level designer Dennis Brännvall, means that players will have to play the objective rather than camping on some hill.

Supremacy will let players use vehicles like X-Wings and TIE fighters, as well as heroes and villains.

“Using a character like Darth Vader to secure control points is great, as he can take increased damage before going down," Brännvall explained.

"Luke Skywalker and Boba Fett are great for moving swiftly between attacking and defensive positions, and giving you the edge against opponents in battle."

Star Wars Battlefront will be released on November 19 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
