Geonosis is an upcoming planet set to be featured in DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II. It was originally slated for a release in the fall,[1][2] but has been delayed to sometime in the winter.[3] Geonosis was the site of the first battle of the Clone Wars, the Battle of Geonosis.
Overview
Geonosis is a desert planet located deep in the Outer Rim Territories of the galaxy. It is the homeworld of the Geonosians, an incredibly productive bug species known for being experts on weapons design. Geonosis was home to droid foundries that manufactured the Battle Droids used by the Separatists, whom they had joined, in the Clone Wars, and it was the Geonosians that designed the original blueprints to the Death Star. Geonosis was a battleground between the Galactic Republic and the Separatists multiple times. The planet and its people were eventually sterilized by the Galactic Empire.
Maps and modes
A map will be released sometime this winter based on Geonosis. It will be the largest map in Star Wars Battlefront II yet. Likely, the unidentified large scale game mode will be playable on it as well as Galactic Assault.[2] Presumably, Blast, Heroes vs. Villains, and Hero Showdown will also be playable on it, as well as possibly other game modes.
