Star Wars Battlefront II features a story mode, a customizable character class system, and content based on the franchise's films, such as vehicles and maps based on the various planets that have appeared in the Star Wars trilogies, prequels, and sequels. It also features playable heroes and villains; the hero roster includes Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, Yoda, Rey, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, Boba Fett, Bossk, Iden Versio, Darth Maul, and Kylo Ren. Later additions included Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker for the heroes, and General Grievous and Count Dooku for the villains.
The game features a story mode, unlike its predecessor. The game's protagonist, Iden Versio, leader of an Imperial Special Forces group known as Inferno Squad, participates in multiple events in the 20 years leading up to The Force Awakens. There will be segments in the campaign where the player can control other characters such as Luke Skywalker and Kylo Ren. Players can also play in arcade mode: single-player offline or local co-op where players can choose which side to play on and which battles to participate in.
Instead of the paid Season Pass downloadable content (DLC) seen in its 2015 predecessor, this game expands with free DLC provided to all players with a free EA account. Lead actress Janina Gavankar stated that the DLC would be free for all players, using a seasonal structure similar to Overwatch and Rainbow Six Siege. The first season focuses on the film Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi, and includes Finn and Captain Phasma as heroes, the planet Crait as a map, as well as a space map on the planet D'Qar.
