* We do get a bunch of references to this effect throughout the main campaign; Rae Sloane is mentioned in the Endor mission, Gallius Rax gets two separate namedrops, we see Shara Bey and Queen Soruna's starfighters on Naboo, the Jakku mission has radio chatter that references Wedge Antilles and Snap Wexley, among others.


[[WMG:Zay and Shriv were still in the middle of negotiations with the Resistance's allies in the Outer Rim during the events of The Last Jedi.]]
Their failure to respond to Leia's call to action was either because they were still busy talking, that they witnessed the utter curbstomp of the Resistance forces on Crait and were too scared to do anything, or both. The next DLC season will see the "new" Inferno Squad rallying support for the Resistance after Luke's climactic appearance on the battlefront (lol) inspired the galaxy toward rebellion.

Added DiffLines:


[[WMG:Iden will lose everyone close to her.]]
Her father will die when his Star Destroyer gets destroyed, Hask and some of the squad gets killed in combat, fleeing into the Unknown Regions means she can never see her mother again, and whoever is left of Inferno Squadron either [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope start to lose it]], are arrested, or have a HeelRealization[=/=]HeelFaceTurn and leave the group.

Despite being tired, jaded, and having lost everything, Iden continues her service to the Empire, [[GreaterNeedThanMine in belief that her personal life is not as important as the rest of the Galaxy's state]], though she's obviously hurting and miserable from losing her friends and family. This means that "I've waited thirty years for this. [...] The day the real war began." is ItsPersonal than just UndyingLoyalty.

If anyone asks about why she's still with the Empire/First Order, she'll claim its mainly because the Empire was a force of good and she wants to avenge it, but really, it's kind of both that and avenging her loved ones.

[[WMG:There will be some sort of reference to Thrawn, possibly hinting what happened to him after ''Rebels''.]]
It could even tie-in with something going on in ''Rebels'' Season 4, as the game will be released around the same time the season starts.

[[WMG:At the very least, characters from cartoons, comics, books, etc. will be namedropped and/or get cameos during the story.]]
For example, a General Syndulla could be mentioned as being a prominent leader in the Alliance, a Colonel Kallus could also be mentioned, propaganda works by "the Artist", etc.

[[WMG:The woman saying "Avenge your Emperor!" is Grand Admiral Rae Sloane.]]
It makes sense considering she helps lead the Imperial Remnant [[spoiler:and then becomes the founder of the First Order]] in the ''Aftermath'' trilogy.
* At the very least Admiral Sloane should appear as a supporting character in the game. Considering her pivotal role in the Empire [[spoiler:and the First Order]] after the Battle of Endor and the fact that the game's storyline both focuses on that time period and is canonical, it only makes sense she would show up.
* Gallius Rax and Brendol Hux could also show up with Sloane as well.

[[WMG:The TIE fighter pilot group from the trailer is Literature/InfernoSquad.]]
The book being called the titular group fits the naming conventions of ''[[Literature/BattlefrontTwilightCompany Twilight Company]]'' and ''Legends'' side games ''Renegade Squadron'', ''Mobile Squadrons'', and ''Elite Squadron''.
* It would serve as a parallel to ''Twilight Company''.
* It seems strange that Inferno Squad had to be commissioned by the Imperial Navy rather than the Imperial Army. Perhaps they're elite TIE pilots?
* British Amazon listing ''Inferno Squad'' with ''Battlefront II'' suggests that it might be an accompaniment novel if it isn't an error. As of this writing, the ''Inferno Squad'' book cover is not final, so perhaps they want to reveal its connection to ''Battlefront II'' later.
** '''Confirmed'''.
