EA has revealed that the AT-ST will be a playable vehicle in Star:Wars Battlefront. Plus: no iron sights...
NewsJust a brief heads-up on some latest Star Wars: Battlefront news snippets. Developer EA DICE has been using the power of Twitter to drip-feed bits of information about its multiplayer shooter, and the latest juicy story involves one of the most recognisable vehicles from the Star Wars universe.
The AT-ST - short for All-Terrain Scout Transport - has been confirmed as one of the playable vehicles in Battlefront.
"Confirmed playable!" EA DICE's tweet read, with the words followed by a handsome picture of an in-game chicken walker:

They've chosen a bit of an odd angle for it, but that's clearly an AT-ST as we remember it from Return Of The Jedi.
In other news, EA DICE has revealed that Battlefront won't feature iron sights - an effort, the studio says, to distinguish its game from other shooters - not least the studio's own Battlefield series.
"There are no iron sights in Star Wars, on the ordinary blasters," Battlefront's executive producer told Official Xbox Magazine. "You have scopes on some rifles, but there are no iron sights."
We're still waiting for our first proper look at Battlefront's gameplay. With the game only months away, it can't be long - we hope - until we see something a little more concrete.
