Moreover, to entice new players, EA is promoting the original DLC packs for free if players log in today until Sunday, Nov. 20. Players can play the original games of the Star Wars: Battlefront DLC packs for free this weekend, including the Outer Rim, Bespin and Death Star as reported by IGN.
Disney also developed a mobile game, called the Star Wars Arena. There are no official details available as of yet, but a screenshot photo suggests that the new game will make use of toymaker Kenner's mini-rigs.
The Star Wars mini-rigs came out in the eighties and have been very popular with Star Wars fans. These are small one-manned vehicles that Kenner designed, believing that the Star Wars franchise need more vehicles. From affordable plastic toys, these Star Wars spin-off vehicles are now priced collectibles.
