Star Wars Battlefront DLC: 10 Specific Things Fans Demand
10. More Heroes And Villains
This is a bit of a no-brainer, but this season pass simply has to have more heroes and villains to add to the game's current roster of 6. Luke, Han, and Leia face off against Vader, Fett, and The Emperor, but these confrontations are already beginning to get a bit repetitive. Critiques of actual gameplay aside, all the heroes have their own unique abilities and can influence the battlefield in different ways.
So, in order to make any new hero feel fresh and worthwhile, DICE are going to have to make variety paramount to their design process. This isn't to say that we shouldn't see similarities in classes, but there should be enough to make say Obi-Wan feel different to Luke, or a potential appearance of Chewbacca feel unique when compared to Han Solo.
These two aside fans have been particularly vocal about seeing characters like Lando, Kylo Ren, Rey, and Poe Dameron as well, with The Force Awakens' success serving as a good indicator of where Battlefront may venture next.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
