A glimpse of the all-era spanning sequel includes a glimpse at the Raider Corvette!
Star Wars Battlefront 2 (videogame) Trailer Features Raider Corvette
More than a glimpse, I would say!
It looks like you play as an Imperial (and perhaps even a crew of that Raider). Wow!
How I wish EA was capable of publishing games worth buying
Maybe I will get to WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS this time

Battlefield has been my favorite title of games for more years than my middle schooler has been alive.
Yay for all eras!!
Are we certain this is genuine and not some fan made fake?

Put on your best uniform, throw the prisoners out the airlock, and make room for the blue champagne! We'll be canon captains soon!

Yeah, if only they actually made Battlefront like Battlefield (and ironically akin to what it was originally)

A Battlefront Battlefield would be amazing.
Same kinda grainy textures and everything.
Battlefront was much too shiny, I like my Stormtroopers COVERED IN BLOOD AND MUD.
Well if that isn't the prettiest thing I have seen all day...
So happy to see the Raider on screen. I wonder if someone at EA plays X-wing or if the story group suggested they use it. So many questions.
Looking forward to the SP campaign and it's great to see the Raider being officially recognized as canon. Whoever designed it at FFG should be feeling good about themselves right now:D
Yeah the campaign looks great mainly because it's filling in some post ROTJ gaps from the canon reset. I hope there's some other campaigns from other factions/eras as well.
Pumped! I just did a video talking about it but man that's just awesome! Hopefully more space combat in that game. Want more ship variety.
>Game that follows an Imperial soldier
SOLD PRE ORDER TIME
Man, first the Thrawn book mentioning the Raider and now this? Our little epic ship is moving up in the world!
gunboat?
please?
How the hell i missed this trailer....
Back to the topic: Raider is really well designed ship. Both aesthetics are nice (little blend between wedge shape od imperial fleet and Tie Fighters design pattern) and it fill little niche of dedicated anti fighter craft empire was missing (ok then had lancers in Legend but 1) Lancers were ultra ugly compared to Raiders,
2) They are not canon anymore
Hmm looks like they are but in just 1 book for now.) No reason why Disney should not include new nice ship when someone gave it to them on a plate.
Now all we need is to see it in Rebels and in one of the Disney movies and it will be fully initiated.
Almost makes the Raider look cool!
Almost...
It's going to have a campaign mode? I will actually buy it then. I really e noted the most recent ones demo, but I don't have the time or desire to play the same maps over and over in Multiplayer.
Guys, please, please do not pre order. Wait, observe. Don't let the hype overtake you. After the SW: Battlefront disappointment, EA needs to be sent a message. Players, fans must tell EA, "do not fu*k with us again" .

So much this. No preorder bonus is ever worth giving up your ability to be an informed customer.
Wait until after release. Buy when it is statisfactory . Otherwise don't. I bought the initial reboot that way knowing I could have fun with the drop pod mode as a simple arena-ish thing and that the large scale battles were good for a laugh once in a while. Had I preordered expecting an actual Battlefront game (of whom I am very fond) I would have been thoroughly dissapointed.

On Rebels Recon Pablo Hidalgo has the ghost mini on his desk, and some other shots have X wing games in them - I think it's safe to say they are aware of it. Surely someone at DICE plays X wing, videogames and tabletop games are fairly closely related.
