Building on the impressive scope that the game brings to all of its battles, it's time to talk about the real jewel in Battlefront's crown: Walker Assault. Walker Assault is far and away the best of the best in this game's modes, bringing both classic third person shooter strategy and frantic action in spades.

Splitting players with the singular tasks of either destroying or defending one or more of the Empire's powerful AT-AT walkers, the battles revolve entirely around the vehicles' attempts to wipe out fleeing Rebels. Walker Assault brings everything that makes Battlefront great together into a simple formula, and it uses the action to highlight just why Star Wars fans should love this game.

One moment you could be dodging the falling trees of Endor's forest, while the next you can be clipping the tow cable of a T47 Snowspeeder to the legs of an AT-AT and trying to bring it crashing to the ground. Every moment of a Walker Assault battle is punctuated by action and energy, and it's wrapped in an atmosphere that's so quintessentially Star Wars-esque that you'll truly feel as though you're a foot-soldier in that galaxy far, far away...
