"Star Wars Battlefront's" three Battle Station phases will be depicted in "Death Star" DLC, in which a return to a classic space battle as Rebel alliance will head the A-Wings and X-wings against the Imperial Star Destroyer. The last phase leads to the "Death Star" trench, where Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker race towards the climactic conflict.

"Star Wars Battlefront" new details will include "Death Star" DLC and the new characters that were featured to the playable roster of the game. A new gameplay trailer was also  launched by DICE showing a preview of how the players would either defend the "Death Star" as the Galactic Empire or attack it as the Rebel Alliance. Based on this, they will take the battle on space or inside the Imperial Star Destroyer.

The "Death Star" DLC is also reported to feature two additional playable characters from "Star Wars" mythos, the bounty hunter Bossk and Wookie Chewbacca. The latter is a tank player and has more health than the rest of the characters, with a small number of armor that makes him absorb more damages.

Bossk, on the other hand, is equipped with a Relby-v10 while his Trandoshan Regeneration trait will return a percentage of his health with every soldier killed or high damage to a hero. "Star Wars Battlefront" is now available for Xbox One, PS4 and  the PC, Yibada reported.

Meanwhile, the previously unseen video of the cancelled game "Star Wars Battlefront III" appeared online. According to reports, the footage was shared by YouTuber FuZah, who described it as the game's unfinished alpha version, which was recorded in 2008. However,  FuZah confirms that they do not have the actual build of the game.

Based on the shared footage, there are more than 13 minutes of videos that show a tutorial mission gameplay. Also, the visuals are evidently below the standard level, with frame rate drops from an in-development game.

Complaints were also reported due to the several lines of on-screen texts, displaying errors that would not normally appear in the proper game, Game Spot reported.
