Heroes & Villains
Battlefront Plus adds 21 new heroes across all factions, each with their own unique abilities, Star Cards, and appearances. From iconic, fan favorite characters to more obscure ones, new heroes come from every corner of the Star Wars canon.
Heroes
Ahsoka Tano
Ahsoka Tano was the Jedi Padawan of Anakin Skywalker and commander of the famed 501st Legion during the Clone Wars until she lost faith in the Jedi Order. When the tyrannical Empire superceded the Republic, she played a crucial role in forming a network of rebel cells prior to the outbreak of the Galactic Civil War.
Cal Kestis
As one of the few Jedi who survived the purge that destroyed the Jedi Order, Cal Kestis lived in seclusion for years until a confrontation with the Inquisitorius compelled him to openly resist the Empire's rule. Hunted across the galaxy by the Empire's Jedi hunters, Kestis embraced his connection to the Force once more.
Captain Rex
CT-7567 "Rex" was a veteran Clone Captain of the famed 501st Legion. Throughout a highly successful military career in both the Clone Army and the Rebel Alliance, Rex maintained a great bond with his Jedi leadership and fellow soldiers, making himself a fiercely loyal and strong-willed companion.
Commander Cody
CC-2224 "Cody" was a Clone Marshal Commander who commanded the 7th Sky Corps - including its renowned 212th Attack Battalion. His skill as a military strategist and fighter was equally matched by his friendship and loyalty, as Cody maintained a strong bond with his Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi and fellow troopers.
Maz Kanata
Maz Kanata had resided at her castle for over a thousand years, witnessing the Dark Side take many forms, when the First Order emerged from hiding. The destruction of the Hosnian System and subsequent subjugation of the galaxy prompted the "Pirate Queen" to take a stand against this new threat.
Merrin
Nightsister Merrin is one of the very last of her people following the Separatist invasion of Dathomir. Since her initially hostile encounter with Cal Kestis, a Jedi Padawan who had also lost his people, she has become an explorer and a most dependable ally to Kestis, his crew, and those in need across the galaxy.
Villains
Asajj Ventress
Prior to being betrayed by her master, Count Dooku, Asajj Ventress was a fallen Jedi who served as commander of the Separatist army and the Sith's personal assassin. Throughout much of the Clone Wars, she gained a reputation as a skillful warrior whose power was rivaled by her arrogance.
Captain Cardinal
Inducted into the First Order as an orphan child from Jakku, Archex was handpicked and personally trained by Brendol Hux, eventually becoming his personal guard. Highly skilled and infinitely loyal, Hux ceremoniously gifted him a personalized set of red armor, for he said it was a color of power, and henceforth called him Cardinal.
Dagan Gera
A renowned and ambitious Jedi Master of the High Republic, Dagan Gera discovered the hidden planet Tanalorr and set to use it as a bastion for the Jedi Order on the galactic frontier. When the High Council gave the order to abandon Tanalorr to invading marauders, Dagan turned against his fellow Jedi, costing him an arm.
Grand Admiral Thrawn
Mitth'raw'nuruodo, better known as Thrawn, is a Grand Admiral of the Imperial Navy, commanding the 7th Fleet. Despite being non-human, an extreme rarity in the Empire's military, he was promoted by Emperor Palpatine for his brilliance and ruthless efficiency. Thrawn believed that in order to achieve victory in war, one must know their enemy.
Gideon Hask
Orphaned as a child by a Rebel attack, Gideon Hask became zealously loyal to the Galactic Empire, eventually joining the elite Inferno Squadron. After his squadmates defected to the Rebellion during Operation Cinder, Hask maintained his allegiance to the Empire and later its successor state: the First Order.
