Story and Gameplay
The storyline of Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron concerns
the two clone trooper brothers X2 and X1. Clones created using
Jedi , they were originally designed to aid in Order 66, the
great Jedi purge set in motion by Chancellor Palpatine as a
pretext to establishing the Empire. However, X2 chooses to
foresake this path and instead joins the rebel alliance, standing
sed to his brother, X1, who remains aligned with the dark
side and the plans of the revealed Darth Sidious.
An evolution of the Battlefront experience.
