Landspeeder Tour of Star Wars Battlefront & Force Awakens Jakku (Battle of Jakku DLC) Feedas Saadeed. Star Wars Battlefront - Trailer DLC Battle of Jakku. How To Download Battle Of Jakku DLC For Star Wars Battlefront PS4. STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT battle of JAKKU DLC trailer.
The first add-on pack for Star Wars Battlefront will arrive on December 8, and it will be free for anyone who owns the game. Set on the desert wasteland seen in Episode 7’s teasers, and taking place one year after the assault on Endor, Battle of Jakku bridges Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. The DLC includes two new maps.
“This really ties in what we’re doing with the Original Trilogy era with The Force Awakens,” Producer Craig Mcleod told IGN. “The Battle of Jakku takes place a year after the Battle of Endor, and the only way you can experience or see it is in our game. That battle essentially leads to that battle-scarred landscape you see in the trailers. What’s even better is we’re delivering it for free to every player who owns the game. I think Kathleen Kennedy summed it up best: Star Wars is all about the fans.”
Pre-ordering Star Wars Battlefront unlocks the Jakku planet a week early, on December 1. Otherwise, it launches wide for everyone just a few weeks after Star Wars Battlefront’s November release date.
“The only post-launch we’re talking about now is Battle of Jakku, the free-for-all expansion,” DICE General Manager Patrick Bach told IGN. “It takes you beyond the Original Trilogy, but not far enough that you go into the New Trilogy era.”
At Star Wars Celebration, Bach also told IGN that Star Wars Battlefront would not ship with any Prequel Trilogy content whatsoever, nor would it feature space combat.

Jakku is a setting in the 2015 Star Wars film The Force Awakens,[1] and its novelization.[2][3] The homeworld of main character Rey, it is a harsh and inhospitable desert planet on the outskirts of the galaxy.[4] In the film, Resistance X-wing fighter pilot Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) comes to Jakku seeking vital information held by explorer Lor San Tekka (Max von Sydow).[5] Poe is captured by the First Order but leaves the data behind with his astromech droidBB-8. He escapes with the help of turncoat stormtrooperFinn (John Boyega), but Poe is presumed dead when their ship crashes in the desert. Meanwhile, BB-8 has befriended local scavenger Rey (Ridley); pursued by the First Order, she and Finn flee Jakku with the droid aboard the Millennium Falcon.
The planet was first seen in the 88-second The Force Awakensteaser trailer released by Lucasfilm in November 2014.[6][7][8]The Force Awakens writer/director J. J. Abrams first mentioned its name at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California in April 2015, identifying Jakku as the setting in the trailers and revealing that it is where the character Rey lives.[6]
The scenes on Jakku were filmed in the Rub al Khali desert near Abu Dhabi.[9][10] In early concept development stages, the planet was conceived as a 'junk planet' which would have 'wreckage from the previous Star Wars movies'.[11]

Jakku was first introduced in two novels released on September 4, 2015: Chuck Wendig's Star Wars: Aftermath (2015) and Claudia Gray's Lost Stars. The latter depicts some of the Battle of Jakku, the final confrontation between the forces of the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance over the planet.[6] The battle is also depicted in the final book in Wendig's Aftermath trilogy, Empire's End (2017),[12][13] which explains that Palpatine kept an observatory on the planet to map the Unknown Regions, where in the event of his death, the Empire would re-form as the First Order.[14] The reference book The Force Awakens: The Visual Dictionary establishes that this battle occurs one year and four days after the Battle of Endor depicted in Return of the Jedi, and is the last major stand of the Empire and battle of the Galactic Civil War. 29 years later, around the time of The Force Awakens, the debris field in the desert is called the Starship Graveyard.[15]
Jakku appears or is mentioned in multiple other works, including Rey's Survival Guide (2015) and The Weapon of a Jedi (2015) by Jason Fry, and the 2015 short stories 'High Noon on Jakku' (2015) and 'All Creatures Great and Small' by Landry Q. Walker.[6]
