Improve your Battlefront knowledge with these top-down views of maps

The Falcon on Rebel Depot in Battlefront.

If you like looking at top-down views of maps, you’re in luck.

Battlefront unfortunately doesn’t have top-down views of maps in-game. However, Redditor u/nerd-is-the-word recently uploaded a slew of maps from the Prima digital guide for the game.

An example of Outpost Beta on Hoth is below:

Here’s the link to the Imgur album of all the maps; it’s certainly worth checking them out.

Note that not all of the maps are correct; for instance, the SoroSuub Centroplex’s first uplinks in Walker Assault are mislabeled. This is probably because the designers of the overhead maps were working with non-finalized versions of the maps.

Additionally, there aren’t top-down views of DLC maps, or the free maps that were added in the months following the game’s release. While this is unfortunate, at least being able to see the original base maps is still pretty cool.

I’ve always loved looking at maps, so it always bugged me that Battlefront didn’t have this built-in. Looking at top-down views of a map can help you learn choke points and determine the best locations to attack from. A live, in-game map also lets you generally locate your team, which allows you to plan a better strategy. While it certainly isn’t my No. 1 request for Battlefront 2, I do hope we’ll get in-game maps for the next Battlefront.
