They choose the latter, and participate in a starfighter attack on Star Destroyers and satellites above Naboo, but the Empire sends ships to the surface to attack Theed. He provides them with two X-Wings to leave and start a new life… or says they can help stop Operation: Cinder at Naboo. Having defected from the Empire, Iden and Del decide to inform the Rebellion about Operation: Cinder, and they are brought on board the Restoration to meet with General Lando Calrissian. They sneak (and fight) their way through the city, eventually boarding the Corvus and rescuing many along the way. Realizing that Iden and Del are nearing treason, Hask raises his weapon but Iden shoots him in the leg, giving her and Del time to escape and rescue civilians. Iden storms off and travels with Inferno Squad to the surface, but after rescuing Gleb Iden and Del want to rescue others, but Hask makes it clear that they had their orders to only rescue Gleb. Iden is furious and confronts her father about Operation: Cinder, but Garrick explains that it is necessary to keep the Empire’s reign going. When they arrive, however, they see the satellites they had helped steal at Fondor being used for a horrible purpose: to destroy Vardos. He offers Del a choice to be better and the two part ways.ĭel regroups with Inferno Squad, who have a new mission: to retrieve Protectorate Gleb from Iden’s homeworld of Vardos. Del reluctantly oblidges, and Luke subtly persuades Del not to blow up the observatory. Inside, Luke searches for something and finds it – a compass – and asks if he could keep it. Del disables the security, but Luke is required to open the doors with the force – which bewilders Del, as he ponders why the Emperor would have an observatory that could only be opened by the force. Luke frees him, and the two work together to fight off the bugs and infiltrate the observatory. He finds Meeko stuck in the amber created by the native bugs. Play shifts to Skywalker, who fights off stormtroopers as he makes his way into a cave. Also there, however, are Luke Skywalker and R2-D2. Iden and Gideon Hask (another member of Inferno Squad) infiltrate a Rebel ship and disable the canons as part of their defense, which was successful.Īfter their success at Fondor, Del Meeko (the third member of Inferno Squad) is sent to Pillio to destroy the Emperor’s observatory there.
Inferno Squad is instructed to head to Fondor to protect the Star Destroyer Dauntless, which comes under attack from the Rebels. There she talks with her father, Admiral Garrick Versio, who shares a Messenger Droid with Iden regarding Operation: Cinder. They particpate in a fighter battle in the skies amidst the debris of the Death Star, but Iden is instructed to head to the Eviscerator rather than to the Corvus (Inferno Squad’s ship). To their shock, the Death Star is blown up – killing the Emperor – and they wipe out some more Rebels before escaping the planet. She escapes and meets up with the rest of Inferno Squad, and they soon after wind up on the forest moon of Endor, working to repel the Rebel attack.
She makes her way through the ship (including past a holographic message from Gial Ackbar discussing the imminent attack on the second Death Star), and Iden erases an intercepted message that would have alerted the Rebels to the Empire’s knowledge of their attack – and the looming trap. We first meet Iden onboard the Rebel ship Invincible Faith as a prisoner, but she escapes with the help of her trusted droid, and we learn that Iden actually wanted to be captured. The campaign centers around Iden Versio (played by Janina Gavankar), who is the commander of Inferno Squad, the Empire’s elite special forces unit. My review follows, but be warned that story spoilers are ahead. Motive Studios developed the single-player story in accordance with the Lucasfilm Story Group, and I think the campaign is the strongest part of the Battlefront II. Perhaps the most anticipated part of this newest addition to the series, however, was the campaign mode – something noticeably missing from the first one. The visuals are stunning, the maps and heroes have been expanded, and the gameplay is fun – while acknowledging that it’s still not re-captured the feel of the previous Battlefront 2 game. The game was released with a mess of a progression system via loot boxes, and EA still doesn’t seem to get what fans are truly looking for with a Star Wars game. Star Wars Battlefront II was released last month, and to say it’s had terrible feedback would be an understatement.
