Most of this story is driven by the ongoing conflict between Iden and Hask, but even that isn’t given the chance to really develop before it is quickly snuffed out. They are mere backdrops instead of things that drive the story forward. It glazes over Starkiller Base destroying multiple planets, and then again over the actual destruction of Starkiller Base. None of Resurrection’s biggest moments have time to hit home. While I understand it’s a free addition to the game, the story suffers as it is sped along across three all too brief missions. A sad tale of loss, we’re treated to some dramatic irony where the player knows that Del is dead, yet Iden and her daughter set out to find him anyway. No, that daughter wasn’t Rey, as some had thought might be the big reveal.Īfter he gets the desired information, Ren lets Gideon Hask (the other member of Inferno Squad who remained with the Empire) kill Del Meeko and a lay a trap for Iden. This fills in some holes and sets up the backstory for the opening of The Force Awakens, and it is implied that Del and Iden were married and had a daughter. The final mission of the launch game sets players into the mask of Kylo Ren, on a journey through Del Meeko’s mind to find information on the whereabouts of Lor San Tekka. Resurrection doesn’t stand alone as as a good series of missions by itself, but being a free addition, it works great as an epilogue chapter, following up on some of the character development we got to see across the main Battlefront 2 campaign.
