The first reveal for the new Star Wars Battlefront game showed Rebel vs Stormtrooper action like never before, and the presentation that followed left quite an impression. Now at EA pre-E3 2015 press conference, we get a deeper look at what's in store this fall when the game releases on November 17th.

DICE revealed actual gameplay footage, revealing more of its Walker Assault game mode. Rebels could be seen scrambling inside their Hoth base, preparing for a Stormtrooper onslaught. AT-AT and AT-ST walkers could be seen patrolling, while a Star Destroyer could be spotted in the distance. Meanwhile, there was air combat up above, as well, with Rebal X-Wings and snow speeders taking on Imperial TIE Fighters and walkers. And yes, there was footage of the iconic tow cable wrapping up the AT-AT's legs.

The demo was soon joined by some iconic Star Wars characters, as each side had unlocked Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader.

All footage was captured on PlayStation 4, but Star Wars Battlefront is also set to come to PC and Xbox One on November 17.

During PlayStation's E3 showcase, an even newer video was shown of Star Wars Battlefront. Here's that video:

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
