How it plays
Up to 16 troopers drop onto one planet, split into squads of four, and the missions only work when squads cover each other: some build walls and ammo stations while others escort, scout or heal.
A big group of friends can fill a whole mission, and smaller groups are topped up with other players.
Each player needs a copy, and PC, PlayStation and Xbox play together.
