Light sabers, Jedi’s, and storm troopers fill the exciting and action-packed game, “Star Wars Battlefront III.”
“Star Wars Battlefront III” is overall an exceptional game with jaw dropping graphics despite some quirks such as its lack of a story mode. This addition to the Star Wars games series has lived up to its lofty expectations, pairing together with the release of the new Star Wars movie.
The game is the third installment in the Star Wars Battlefront series and features new game modes such as walker assault and heroes vs. villains where a player can play as iconic characters like Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and Boba Fett.
“Star Wars Battlefront” stands out because of its superb graphics, which make for very detailed characters and maps. The extremely realistic graphics make the game stand out because it is much higher quality than other games in the genre which makes the gameplay more fluid and satisfying.
Additionally, the online multiplayer modes are very action-packed and diverse, taking place on a variety of maps and ranging from 8-40 players. “Battlefront” has a lot of content due to its 13 different game modes which gives it a lot of replay value and makes it difficult to get bored of.
Despite this, “Star Wars Battlefront” doesn’t have a single player story mode which can be a big turn off for many buyers because it is limited to just multiplayer game modes. The lack of a story mode limits the scope of the game by only letting gamers play the online multiplayer.
The game features iconic stars such as Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and Princess Leia which is a big feature for Star Wars fans, adding interest and authenticity to the game. The problem is that these heroes and villains are unreasonably overpowered because they have too much health and strong weapons, making them hard to defeat. The high degree of difficulty makes it harder for newer gamers to play the game because it is more geared towards more experienced players, limiting its appeal.
“Star Wars Battlefront III” is a necessary purchase for any Star Wars fan. “Star Wars Battlefront” is an outstanding game with stunning graphics and enough variation to keep the buyer occupied for hours.
“Star Wars Battlefront III” is rated T and is available for purchase at $59.99.
