DICE’s Star Wars Battlefront received some new content this week with Outer Rim, its first paid expansion, along with a new update that added new weapons and features like Hutt Contracts. Unfortunately, the update also had a bug which would let you instantly level to the max cap of level 60.

The problem is that anyone who was affected by this bug would see their game crash after each round was completed. A new hotfix has reset the rank for players affected by the issue. Speaking on the forums, DICE’s community manager said, “We apologize for any inconvenience but this step is necessary so that you can properly gain levels again and avoid crashes at the end of rounds.”

The Outer Rim is currently available for Season Pass owners. It will be available for general consumers on April 5th with other add-ons like Bespin and Death Star out later this year. The final expansion will release in early 2017.
