As wells as being able to leave the frantic action of the battlefield to take to the skies in a fighter, Battlefront also offers players the chance to step into the shoes of a mighty hero at various points. You can even practice getting the best out of these iconic heroes in designated challenges, providing some of the most carefree fun that the game has to offer.

The hero mode challenges are a great way to experience the power of the likes of Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader but without sacrificing the scale of the game's battles. Players enter the fray as vastly superior warriors, and can enjoy cutting down scores of enemies on the way to securing an unlikely victory in the face of overwhelming odds.

These hero modes provide great practice for getting the most out of your heroes in online battles, but more importantly than that they are just tremendous fun. If games like The Force Unleashed suffered because their lightsaber-wielding action got tiresome too quickly, Battlefront thrives because the game itself offers this as a bonus rather than an essentiality.

Stepping into the hero's boots in Battlefront is a great diversion, but it's biggest strength is the fact that it is a choice you don't always have to make.
