GameSpot has posted a first look at Star Wars Battlefront 2, which they say should be officially announced soon. The multiplayer shooter sequel (again in development at Pandemic Studios) will feature new gameplay modes, more locations to fight in, Jedi combatants, Episode 3 content and more. Also mentioned several times in the article is that fan feedback has been used to improve various parts of the game. Six screenshots are included, and there's also a developer video interview.

Battlefront 2's gameplay modes will feature some fan-requested tweaks, as well as offer a deeper, more narrative-focused single-player campaign. Furthermore, it will add to the already robust online multiplayer mode of its predecessor. The single-player game will offer open-ended mission-based objectives that will obviously owe a thing or two to the six Star Wars films. The game will have a broader feel thanks to the different approach Pandemic is taking toward the planets you'll fight on. Whereas the planets in the first game had multiple maps set on different parts of the world, Battlefront 2's 12 planets will only offer one map each, providing more variety overall. Expect to see some planets taken from Episode III, such as the crater world of Utapau (General Grievous' hideout) and the volcanic lava world of Mustafar (where Anakin gets the skin peel of a lifetime).
