Star Wars: Battlefront II multiplayer — Heroes vs. Villains features icons in action

Heroes vs. Villains is the ultimate Star Wars fantasy. In this multiplayer mode for Star Wars: Battlefront II, you can be a hero or villain. This is one of the reasons why Battlefront II is probably going to be one of the biggest video games of the year, as it takes that fantasy farther than the original Star Wars: Battlefront did in 2015.

It doesn’t matter which time frame you’re in or where your battle takes place. You can be one of the iconic heroes or villains from the Star Wars movies and then square off in a multiplayer battle of four heroes against four villains. I played the mode at an event at Electronic Arts headquarters in Redwood City as part of a demo of all of the game’s multiplayer modes. The game from EA’s DICE, Motive, and Criterion studios debuts on November 17.
