Star Wars Battlefront Review
Editor's note: As explained last week, Polygon chose to review Star Wars Battlefront based on time spent with the title via EA Access, which provided 10 full hours of the full game to subscribers starting last week. To get a broader range of input with a game aimed at a massive audience, we tapped Polygon editors Justin McElroy and Dave Tach, who exhausted their "Access" periods and then some.
For starters, Battlefront is primarily an online multiplayer title, hence the reason we're not giving the game our usual full review treatment. Instead, Battlefront plays out in a collection of modes not unique to the game itself, essentially layering a Star Wars skin on top of contemporary multiplayer tropes.
Survival mode is, as you might expect, a wave-based mode where you and a friend fight off Imperial forces for fifteen rounds. Before starting, players can select one of two preset Star Card hands, and select from all of the blasters whether they've unlocked them or not. It's a nice way to preview some of the later abilities. You begin with a shared pool of two lives, and it's not possible to revive a teammate, so careless play will be punished.
