Whether you’re fighting on the ground with a blaster in your hands, cutting down troops with a lightsaber, or dogfighting in space, Battlefront 2 is an immensely entertaining ride through a galaxy far, far away.Ĭrucially, DICE absolutely nailed the basics. Most of them play wonderfully and they all ooze that classic Star Wars look and feel on an unrivaled scale. Setting aside the overly safe, short, and disappointing single-player story, there’s a wealth of wave-based co-operative maps and a litany of online competitive multiplayer modes. Taking in all Battlefront 2 now has to offer at once is honestly a bit overwhelming. After over two years of updates and changes, EA and DICE have redeemed this gorgeous shooter and turned it into one of the best multiplayer adaptations of the Star Wars universe to date. So, in an ironic sort of way, Battlefront 2 is a better Star Wars game because of its initial fall to the dark side and subsequent journey back to the light. Almost since the beginning, Star Wars has been a story of redemption from darkness.
