BB-8 joins the battlefront in January 2020, bringing bravery and a fast-paced playstyle to the roster.

It’s great to see that Star Wars Battlefront II is being supported this well even after all these years. Even to this day, it’s one of the best-looking games on Xbox One X due to its 4K resolution and 60 frames per second presentation.

Star Wars Battlefront II ignited a microtransactions controversy which a lot of foreign governments cracked down on. While EA eventually changed the business model of the game, it still left customers with an uneasy feeling about the future. Not only did the microtransactions impact the review scores, but they overshadowed anything positive about the game, like its short single-player campaign.
