DICE’s Star Wars Battlefront will be receiving some new DLC today in the form of Death Star and even if you’re not all that keen on partaking in the new maps or Battle Station mode (which recreates the epic trench run from the first film), there will still be some new features to avail.

For instance, the level cap has been increased from 70 to 90. Traits have been updated with new levels but they’ve also been tuned in a variety of different ways (Bounty Hunter no longer offer “50 percent power up chance on kill & Kills shave off 80 percent of cooldown” at level 3; instead, it now offers “50 percent faster card cooldowns”).

Fighter Squadron now has bot-controller A-Wings and TIE Interceptors flying around and Red 5 and TIE Advanced X1 have been added as hero vehicles. Private matches in Drop Zone have also been changed to accommodate 12 players.

Check out the full patch notes here and let us know what you think of the Death Star DLC in the comments.
