DICE Releases Patch Notes for Age of Rebellion Update on Star Wars: Battlefront II

Star Wars: Battlefront II is getting a major update and it looks like DICE has finally given the details about the next patch to the action shooter video game.

DICE is integrating the Age of Rebellion update to Star Wars: Battlefront II on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on February 26. The new Age of Rebellion patch is themed around the original Star Wars trilogy, giving gamers new special units like the Ewok Hunter ( a special version of the games Ewok with a bow and dual firing modes) and the ISB agent, a dual-wielding character that brings two RK-3 Blasters.

The new patch also provides other great updates to the game. Thanks to Age of Rebellion, Battlefront's Heroes vs. Villains mode is going to be made available on the Resurgent-class star destroyer and the MC85 Star Cruiser. Hero Showdown will be made available in new maps, Trooper classes will get new weapons, and default appearances for certain units like the Rebel Rocket Jumper, the Wookie Warrior, and the Imperial Rocket Trooper are going to get updates.
