‘Star Wars: Battlefront II’ open beta begins October 6th

The beta includes Galactic Assault on Naboo, the 40-player troops and vehicles brawl shown at E3, which seems to operate in stages like the first game’s Walker Assault. But it also features another multiplayer mode that we’d seen teased in the Star Wars: Battlefront II‘s trailer, Starfighter Assault. Details are scarce, but it will be an “objective-based, multi-stage battle” with an assortment of familiar ships.
