The long awaited update for Battlefront 2 that not only introduces new content and balancing changes, but the complete progression overhaul goes live today.
Beyond the progression changes which you can find the details on here, updates include:
- All Heroes and Hero Ships are unlocked for everyone (as you now level each unit individually).
- A new map has been added in Bespin which is available in Blast, Heroes vs. Villains, and Jetpack Cargo.
- All Star Cards and Weapons have been upgraded to Epic level in Arcade mode to further enhance the sandbox play.
Our Take
The dust has settled on the controversy surrounding Battlefront 2 and it seems it has paid the price. Hopefully EA has learned something from these decisions but we’ve talked about that extensively. With regard to these changes, they are a big step in the right direction and we hope that the players who have been enjoying Battlefront 2 benefit from them. As for new players, and the eventual tie-ins to the upcoming Hans Solo movie, we hope this will make Battlefront 2 more inviting.
