PSVR X-Wing Mission studio Criterion is working on Star Wars: Battlefront II

Electronic Arts hasn’t confirmed whether Star Wars: Battlefront II will have a virtual reality mission, but the team that made the first game’s VR companion experience is working on the sequel.

Criterion Games, the studio best known for the Burnout arcade-style racers, is working on the vehicle elements of Battlefront II, which publisher EA revealed as part of the Star Wars Celebration fan event over the weekend. But Alex Mole, Criterion tech director, says the team is also working on “something awesome” for the Star Wars shooter from developer DICE. Since EA has already revealed Criterion is working on the combat for land and air vessels, it seems like Mole’s tease is potentially referring to something else, and if that’s VR — it’s possible EA will roll the content out to the PC’s virtual reality headsets instead of just PlayStation VR.
