“So we’ve been in the Clone Wars for quite a while now, and we’re really viewing this mode as the culmination of this part of the live service for Battlefront II. More recently, the Clone Wars updates continued with Count Dooku and Anakin Skywalker joining Battlefront II‘s villain and hero rosters, respectively.Īs it turns out, the new mode announced at EA Play not only serves as a natural complement to the last several months of Clone Wars updates and additions, but a climactic celebration on that fan-pleasing path. “We’ll be delivering a large-scale multiplayer sandbox experience focused around capturing command posts and attacking and taking out capital ships,” shared the game’s franchise design director.īrannvall immediately followed the announcement with news he and his team would also be responding to fans’ overwhelming requests for Clone Wars content by adding heroes, villains, and planets from that “iconic Star Wars conflict.” As Battlefront II players are well aware, DICE began making good on that promise last fall, bringing General Grievous, Obi-Wan Kenobi, new clone troopers, and the planet Geonosis to the game. During last summer’s EA Play media briefing, DICE’s Dennis Brannvall took the stage to tease a brand new multiplayer mode for Star War Battlefront II.
