EA is bringing Gambling into their universe by making us buy "crates" just to unlock heroes that should be available from the beginning without extra money spent. They said they have recently suspended the crystal buying within, but they WILL turn it back on later when sales have surged.

Can this game overcome bad implementations of microtransactions to be worth your money? Find out in our review of Star Wars Battlefront 2.

For a Star Wars fan, it is a good and a bad time right now. There are Star Wars movies releasing again, the shops are full of shiny things and the younger folk now know what a wookiee is.

Janina Gavankar; Graphics; Many varied maps and objective playing multiplayer

Multiplayer progression system; Lack of Star Wars movie music; Movie character facial models

Electronic Arts makes missteps at every turn in this fundamentally flawed follow-up.

"Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering." The words of Yoda were echoing in my head as I played Battlefront II. There is certainly no shortage of hatred circulating around this game at the moment and while I will mention that later on, right now I'm going to go the way of the Jedi and focus on...

The Force is back once again and you my dear friends can experience just how amazing it is to battle your way through the totally awesome Star Wars universe. EA Games brought the first game to life a couple of years ago, however the response to it was varied.

Really good graphics, has a proper campaign unlike battlefront 1 which is a great feature, online play is still good, new additions like more heroes. All in all, a very good game

I thought 2014's Battlefront was a fantastic game, and compared to most AAA first-person shooters, it was a lot more approachable for people who don't necessarily play a lot of competitive shooters. For most parts of it, it was as simple as point and shoot.

Approachable and Fun Multiplayer; Space Battles; A Good Amount of Content At Launch; Great Performances; Fantastic Visuals and Audio; Playing as Solo and Lando in Campaign

Confusing Progression System; Random Nature of Unlocks; Inconsequential Main Story; Lacking Mission Structure

This game simulates epic battles across the entire Star Wars saga, with graphics, sound and grameplay that would have you scratching your head and wondering if you're watching one of the movies. It is an incredibly fun romp across the galaxy.

Star Wars is one of those epic franchises that has a devoted following for a good reason. Considering that the series has lasted longer than many gamers have been alive, you can't deny that this galaxy far far away has some serious staying power.

Beautifully rendered planets; Solid campaign; Plethora of multiplayer modes

Progression system weighs game down; Some poor enemy models; microtransaction issue still unresolved
