When Star Wars Battlefront launches tomorrow, it brings with it six distinct heroes and villains: Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Boba Fett, Luke, Leia and Han Solo. You can see all of them in action in the video above, as well as start to get a handle on their individual powers (which aren't particularly well-explained in the game).

We’ve sunk a lot of time into Battlefront over the last four days, so you may be curious which hero we prefer. Well, it’s a difficult question to answer, requiring plenty of nuance and paragraphs worth of comparative statistica — just kidding, it is Boba Fett. It’s always Boba Fett.
