Not only that, but it's also detailed the abilities, powers and playstyles each character will have when the game ships in November. Although only nine playable characters have been confirmed by EA so far, a recent leak has filled that number out to a solid 17. Thankfully however, the studio seems to have righted the ship with the upcoming Battlefront 2. Unfortunately, by then it was too little, too late. With huge omissions like Chewbacca not included in the initial set of heroes, the devs and EA attempted to make the selection more substantial in the months following the title's release by dropping DLC packs full of new characters.
And you can see why with only six playable heroes at launch, the paltry roster of iconic characters DICE created for the first game was a gigantic step back from what fans were expecting.
