Players of "Star Wars Battlefront II" can now channel their inner Boba Fetts, as the latest update has been introduced and has added a new game mode involving jetpacks and rockets.

Patch 1.07 of "Star Wars Battlefront II" is out now and will bring with it an all-new Jetpack Cargo game mode that lets players use jetpacks in order to stay mobile in the map. The patch is now available for download on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 (PS4) and the PC version of the game.

The patch notes explain what the new Jetpack Cargo mode entails: "This fast-paced mode sees players jumping around in jetpacks wielding rocket launches for the entire round. This mode will only be available for a limited time so check for availability and make sure to jump in and give it a try." This means that players will only be able to play the said mode until the developers decide to pull it off the game, though they could also decide to retain it should it prove popular enough.

The said game mode consists of eight players per team in which all will wield rocket launchers. This makes it different from a standard game mode in which blasters are the staple weapons of each side save the heroes in the map. To compensate for this and for players to be able to maneuver out of harm's way, jetpacks are also included for every player, ensuring a frantic multiplayer session where skill and calculation can eventually prove to be the determining factors.

Fans of the famous fan-favorite "Star Wars" bounty hunter Boba Fett can now live out their cosplay fantasies with the new mode as the jetpack is a signature gear of the said character in the movies. Along with the exciting and limited new game mode, the update will also be introducing balance and optimization changes for the game in orrder to ensure a smoother experience during gameplay.
