Star Wars: Battlefront data mining shows Leia, Palpatine, Han Solo will be playable

Users who’ve data mined the Star Wars: Battlefront beta have uncovered new playable Heroes and Villains.

The data mining has allegedly uncovered Leia, Han Solo and Emperor Palpatine as playable characters in-game.

Leia acts like a support character, offering supply drops and shields for your team. Palpatine embraces the Dark Side of the Force, using a lightsabre, lightning attacks and Sith mind tricks. Finally, Han Solo seems to possess a shoulder charge ability alongside a quick draw blaster.

You can head to this Google Docs document for a full list of the data mined modes and characters.

EA hasn’t commented on the data mined content.
