Star Wars Battlefront: 15 Brand New Features You Need To Know About

15. Han Solo, Leia & Palpatine Are Playable

Joining Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader from the beta - alongside Boba Fett who we saw in action months ago - are Han, Leia and Palpatine. The latter is set to deploy with all his fork-lightning powers, whilst Han and Leia will essentially be suped-up blaster characters. Their abilities are as follows:

Han: Shoulder charge - Dash attackLucky shot - Charge-up. Good vs. vehiclesSix shooter/Hair Trigger - Pull trigger as fast as you canCombat roll - Dodges incoming fireLeia:Trooper Bane - One shot most enemies for limited timeSupply drop - Help your allies with special powersEnhanced shield - Set up a shield to protect alliesCombat roll - Dodge incoming firePassive: Alderaan Honor Guard can start on youPalpatine:Chain Lightning - Powerful lightning attackBlock - Deflects blaster fireImperial resources - Drop powers to your followersForce Dash - Quickly leap to escape corneringForce lightning - Harness the power of the Dark sideMind trick - Outwit your enemies, reveal your true locationPassive: Shock Troopers can spawn on youBoba Fett: Jetpack - Hold to fly but monitor fuel level!Rocket Barrage - Launch a rocket at your foesFlame pack - A powerful burst of flame

Leia's Trooper Bane (where she can 'One shot most enemies for limited time') ability looks to be one of the most infuriating to go up against, as like Destiny's Golden Gun, it essentially means one player can easily dominate the entire opposition if they stay on the move. Han and Boba on the other hand, have only have a paltry selection of options, although Han's 'Hair Trigger' might as well be called 'Shoot First' - something that depending on where you lie on the matter, could've been pretty divisive.
