If you were to travel back in time and tell a six-year-old version of me that I’d eventually be doing this kind of thing in a video game, alongside up to 15 other gamers, while playing on a handheld console… well, I’d probably spill Capri Sun down my Ninja Turtles T-shirt. Force your way through to the reactor core, and you can start a chain reaction that will destroy the entire vessel if you manage to escape in time, you can then use your ship to fly back down to solid ground, where the struggle will continue. If you’ve managed to knock out the defenses on one of the massive Capital Ships, you can then dock with them and explore their insides on foot. At the start of a battle you might be fighting on the surface of a planet, but if you hop into an X-Wing, or another spacecraft of your choice, you can head into space for a spot of zero-gravity dogfighting.

In principle, it’s hard not to be impressed by the scale of the action in Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron.
