The Wii U version of the game will release on December 17 for $30. The Wii U version will include six add-on content packs, as well as a "Festive mash-up just in time for the holidays." Additionally, 16 more packs will be available in the eShop when the game launches.
EA: Battlefront ‘May Not Have the Depth’ Hardcore Gamers Want
Electronic Arts' CFO Blake Jorgensen has acknowledged that Star Wars Battlefront "may not have the depth" experienced players want in the sci-fi shooter.
Talking at the Nasdaq Investor Conference in Europe, Jorgensen said that the game was intentionally designed to be accessible for those new to first-person shooter games, or kids wanting to play with their parents.
"Star Wars Battlefront is a first-person shooter, but it is
the only teen-rated first-person shooters," said Jorgensen. "We had designed it to be a much more accessible product to a wide age group.
"So, an 8-year-old could play with his father on the couch, as well as a teenager or 20-year-old could play the game and enjoy it. It is more accessible.
