Play Star Wars: Battlefront II as Matt the Radar Technician

The funniest thing to arise in the wake of The Force Awakens in 2015 was the SNL skit Undercover Boss: Starkiller Base, in which Kylo Ren disguised himself as a radar technician named Matt to find out what the crew of his First Order ship thought of him. Two years later, you can play Star Wars: Battlefront II as Matt the Radar Technician.

A cluster of links about the mod can be found at the YouTube page. Matt the Radar Technician isn't the only new mod that's cropped up in Battlefront II. When EA CFO Blake Jorgensen had this to say, 

One way EA isn't considering is leaning in too heavily on character-based cosmetic items, since it could interfere with the canon of a renowned franchise like Star Wars. "If you did a bunch of cosmetic things, you might start to violate the canon," the CFO said. "Darth Vader in white probably doesn't make sense, versus in black. Not to mention you probably don't want Darth Vader in pink. No offense to pink, but I don't think that's right in the canon."

Players, of course, took that as a challenge. Yes, there's now a pink Darth character. And a white Darth is coming soon. -via The Mary Sue

BTW, I don't see why Matt couldn't be canon. After all, the actor is right there and available. He should make a cameo in episode IX.
