What Parents Need to Know

About Star Wars Battlefront

Parents need to know that there is nothing more violent in this game than in the movies. But it's battles, and nothing else -- lots of shooting, zapping, etc. all with the sounds from the movies. This can be either a third- or first-person shooter. This is a game that doesn't spawn much conversation -- it's just battles, battles and more battles.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the lack of context. Do you enjoy focusing narrowly on the action? Do you prefer games with more storytelling? Do you think the game company assumed people were familiar enough with the Star Wars story to hit the ground running?

    this game is fine for ages...11 and up, maybe 12 & up

    this game was very fun, nothing that will make normal parents freak out. it's a star wars best game, you shoot and walk around, not realistic like socom or call of duty 4 modern warfare. this game is fine for anyone 11 & up. very fun

    Fun Game

    This is a great game. The controls are relatively simple and the graphics are good. It is a relatively violent game. Soldiers yell out when killed. I think it's appropriate for ages 12 and up.

    Being a Star Wars fan, I think this is a great game. My only complaint is its horrible AI.
