Meanwhile, DICE has silenced all by answering in a negative on the question of microtransactions in Star Wars Battlefront. The speculation arose since the game uses two-tier currency system of points and credits, which is normally used to make way for microtransactions, reported GameSpot.
Niklas Fegraeus, Battlefront design director at DICE, revealed in a recent interview with GameSpot that microtransactions were "not part of the core design of how it works. This is a progression system based on your gameplay performance."
Star Wars Battlefront will be released on 17 November for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
We will also have the JJ Adams movie titled Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens releasing on 8, December, 2015.
