It's already been a huge weekend for the Star Wars franchise at this year's D23 Expo. So why shouldn't its most anticipated game be a part of the festivities. Star Wars Battlefront made an appearance during this year's Disney gaming panel, with panel attendees getting a fresh chance to check out the latest footage. But the big news came afterwards, with PlayStation's Adam Boyes revealing that a Darth Vader-modeled PlayStation 4 console would release in November as part of a bundle for either Battlefront or Disney Infinity 3.0.

"The bundle also includes Star Wars Battlefront Deluxe Edition, as well as a digital voucher to download four classic Star Wars titles – Super Star Wars, Star Wars: Racer Revenge, Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter and Star Wars Bounty Hunter – playable for the first time on PS4, and sporting enhanced graphics and Trophy support," explains the PlayStation.Blog entry.

The bundles are expected to launch on November 17. A Wal-Mart exclusive bundle with the Darth Vader-inspired 500GB PS4 system (CUH-1200 series), Dualshock 4 Wireless Controller, and the Disney Infinity 3.0: Star Wars Edition PlayStation Exclusive Hardware Bundle Kit will also be released on that day.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
