A gorgeous new "Star Wars" game, where you can fight as Yoda against Darth Maul with freakin' lightsabers? Yes, really

Star Wars Battlefront 2

That's exactly what you can do in the upcoming game "Star Wars Battlefront 2," scheduled to launch on November 17 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

Here's everything we know about the game so far!

"Battlefront 2" takes place in the aftermath of "Return of the Jedi" (the final film in the original "Star Wars" trilogy).

The second Death Star has just exploded, and you're an Imperial soldier with revenge on the brain. Iden Versio's story is one of vengeance, seemingly set 30 or so years after the explosion of the aforementioned space base. 



Rather than a saber-wielding Jedi, you're a trooper. And that means guns instead of future-swords. This is a first-person shooter, first and foremost.

Since she's an Imperial soldier and not a Jedi, she has no Force powers to use on enemies. This is a game focused on shooting, and she'll apparently be shooting a lot of Rebel forces — she's "fighting for the future of the Empire,"according to "Star Wars" cast member John Boyega in a recent video.

The Emperor is dead, the Death Star is gone, and she's fighting for whatever's left. 



Through her journey of revenge, Iden visits a variety of stunning locals.
