Star Wars Battlefront 2: 10 Playable Heroes It Must Include

"Come get it."

Never mind Rey, Finn is the hero that Battlefront 2 needs.

Not that Rey is a bad character by any means, on the contrary she's one of strongest aspects of the Force Awakens. Despite this, Finn isn't really given as much attention as he deserves. He's definitely got one of the best personalities in recent Star Wars memory, harkening back to rogues like Han Solo and Lando Calrissian. His backstory and image as a 'traitor' also make him an endearing character, making viewers all over the world fall in love with FN-2187.

Besides his fantastic character, Finn also has a lot of gameplay potential. His marksmanship skills have been noted by characters like Captain Phasma as being extraordinary, which would make him one of the only new characters who focus on using blasters rather than Lightsabers.

Of course, his brief stint on Takodana showed that he was no slouch when it came to close combat. This could play into his appearance in Battlefront 2 by allowing him to briefly use a Lightsaber in close proximity to other players. His true talent would be his use of a rifle however, meaning that Lightsaber use wouldn't necessarily be recommended.

Finn would certainly be much higher up if his appearance wasn't so likely. If he wasn't in Battlefront 2, it would practically be a crime.
