One cutscene in particular calls out the Nadiri dock yards while showcasing an MC75 Star Cruiser - the same model as the Profundity, commanded by Mon Calimari Admiral Raddus in Rogue One.

The culmination is an all-out attack on an enemy capital ship, which will require the destruction of key components, such as the shield generator and targeting systems, to bring it down.įleet Battles will also be available as a single-player mode, or a cooperative mode, against enemy AI.
Here players vie for control of an entire battlespace through a series of linked attack and defense missions. Multiplayer includes five-versus-five online gameplay in several different modes, but the most involved appears to be the mode called Fleet Battles. Outside of the PSVR system no other specific VR systems were mentioned, nor were alternate control devices such as joysticks and HOTAS (hands-on throttle and sticks) mentioned. The trailer also states that the entire game - start to finish, and including all multiplayer modes - can be played inside VR. Image: EA Motive/Electronic Arts and Lucasfilm
