The company has announced that the Sony PlayStation 4 console bundle is going to be the only one for the game
Electronic Arts Inc.’s (NASDAQ: EA) Star Wars: Battlefront is an upcoming action-adventure game. The game’s trailer and screenshots were shown at the Star Wars Celebration at Anaheim in March 2015, and a month later the official release date of November 17, for North America was announced.
Last week, EA unveiled a special edition bundle for Sony Corp’s (ADR) (NYSE:SNE) PlayStation 4. It was confirmed recently that there won’t be a bundle for Microsoft Corporation’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) Xbox One. The news was announced by Star Wars: Battlefront’s community manager Matthew Everett. The PlayStation 4 exclusive bundle will include the console with Darth Vader on it, a controller with a Star Wars villain’s chest panel design, four digital Star Wars games, and a deluxe edition copy of the game. The price for the bundle has not been announced, but Sony will also release a standard console with a regular copy of the game.
It was a big announcement at that time when EA disclosed that it was working on a Star Wars: Battlefront game. EA should focus on making the game a better experience for all Star Wars fans and with the power of the new consoles, the game could look as incredible as the previous titles.
The last Battlefront game was released in 2005 and was a huge success, but there was no sign of the game’s revival until now. Apart from the single story mode, Battlefront will also feature a multiplayer mode that will unlock new levels and equipment as you progress further in the game. EA partnering with Sony is a solid strategy considering Microsoft and Lucas Arts teamed up for an R2-D2-themed Xbox 360 with a C3PO controller.
It’s a good strategy for Sony to handle the marketing of the game as this is a highly anticipated title and Star Wars fans will surely be eager to get their hands on the game.
