As the release of the first paid DLC for Star Wars Battlefront looms ever closer, a new image from the next batch of content teases two new hero characters coming to the game.

Fighting in what appears to be an assault on Jabba’s palace, we not only have the Rodian Greedo fighting on the side of the imperials, but also Nien Nunb, Lando Calrissian’s Sulustan co-pilot from the Battle of Endor, fighting on the side of the rebels.

Greedo, despite having an exceptionally short role in the films, has been a fan favorite ever since he tried to shoot Han Solo in A New Hope and met with a smoky demise instead.

Posting on the game’s forum’s DICE teased fans, telling them to look for “details on more maps, weapons, star cards, heroes, level cap increase, and an all-new multiplayer game mode” to come in the Outer Rim DLC.

Just last week, Battlefront received a free update, adding new maps and even a new co-op survival mission.

As we learn more about Nien Nunb and Greedo in Battlefront, you’ll find it right here on Gamespresso. But until then, what do you think of the character choices? Let us know in the comments.
