Critic Reviews for Star Wars Battlefront: Death Star
Easily the best Battlefront DLC so far, although it’s still only scratching the surface of what can be done in the Star Wars universe.
In short, there are highs and lows to Death Star. With a few expansions down and only one left to go, I was expecting something greater. If not more from the headliner, Battle Station, than at least more mode compatibility with the new maps. There's no excuse. I came in thinking it'd be an easy sell -- and it probably still will be for some given its inherent nostalgia -- but I'm coming out of it feeling let down. Taken with the rest of the season pass, Death Star helps round out the wider experience, but I would have a hard time recommending it as a standalone purchase. At this point, I'd go all or nothing.
Death Star is the best expansion so far for Battlefront, but the way the DLC as a whole is presented only further segregates the player base.
I'm sure some might enjoy taking on the Death Star, but I felt it was a disappointing DLC pack.
