For the upcoming multiplayer shooter Star Wars Battlefront, there is now a developer video diary with a clearly promotional nature. It shows how much effort Dice is putting into giving players the “Star Wars feeling”.
In the video, there is a moment when the Design Director of Dice, Niklas Fegraeus, says they want to capture the wonder they felt when they first saw the Star Wars films. This is probably the key moment in the video. It otherwise shows the immense resources and possibilities they have and apply to “capture” that feeling.
They were at the original filming locations of the movies, had access to the Star Wars archives, and dealt with the original music. Everything in Star Wars Battlefront, according to the message, is supposed to fulfill the childhood dream: finally diving into the movies. The lightsaber in the game has to sound and feel just like it did in front of the TV or in the cinema when they first heard about that ominous power everyone is talking about again.
Star Wars Battlefront, an online shooter, is set to be released in mid-November for PC, Playstation 4, and Xbox One, about a month before Episode 7 will usher in a new Star Wars era in theaters. Here are our other news about the game.
