Star Wars Battlefront 2 Reviews
Star Wars Battlefront II is the epitome of taking a step forward, shooting yourself in the foot and then falling backwards in pain.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a game on par with its predecessor in terms of quality, but that is hard to see when it is covered in garbage business decisions.
Star Wars: Battlefront II feels like a big step forward, but instead of following that with a number of steps back, it's actually a trip-up leading to a sprained ankle. This is a beautiful, fun game with huge ambitions for being an important part of the Star Wars universe as it is today.
There's a good game buried somewhere beneath too many cons. I just hope that Motive, Criterion, and DICE can right the starship before too many players launch their escape pods.
Star Wars Battlefront II is a game rich of contents and extremely close to the Star Wars Universe. Graphics are impressive and the gameplay is simple and solid. Iden is not the character we expected, but the campaign has the power to brings all the Star Wars Experience directly to the player, taking him to the different planets and giving him eventually a limited perspective of what happened from Episode VI to Episode VII.

So, does Star Wars Battlefront II fulfill the Star Wars fantasy? I believe it does, but it's a very Empire Strikes Back fantasy; it's not all lightsabers and Force-using. Sometimes it takes a blaster or two to get the job done or some fancy flying. It may require some frustrating moments of Dagoba-style training. At the end of the day, no matter who gets frozen in carbonite or loses a hand, you've got your squad to think about. Only together can you overcome the odds stacked against you.
With a predictable story and an in-game economy that's extortionate, we cannot recommend Star Wars Battlefront 2 to anyone at this juncture.
The shroud of the microtransactions cloud everything in this game and that certainly drags the game's final score down. I really hope you read this review instead of jumping to the score because if microtransactions and a pay-to-progress loot box system don't bother you, this game is certainly for you.
on the outside, Star Wars Battlefront 2 looks like a true AAA title, but in the inside it's not that different than freemium mobile games. it doesn't matter how accurately the world of Star Wars has been rebuilt or how realistic the graphics are, the game is a mess at it's core.

A few neat ideas a sprinkled throughout the latter half of Star Wars: Battlefront II with the story being competent in going through famous areas in the universe, the game is solid at the core but the needless microtransactions and terrible locked content keep it from being outstanding. I wanted to love it but left feeling used and abused despite fun times had
Star Wars Battlefront is a perfect example for those who treat gamers like EA does. The game itself is gorgeous and nobody can deny that! But EA's miserable mistakes and some other things don't let it be better. This isn't something new. It's happened before and today we still see it happening. Looks like EA doesn't want to stop. Star Wars Battlefront is still something you can enjoy playing but you can easily hate its guts at the same time.

Star Wars: Battlefront II is a wasted opportunity. The game was totally on track, fixing everything the first title did wrong and keeping the gorgeous graphics and perfect sounds. In the end, we have a mediocre single-player campaign, an ordinary Arcade mode and a varied multiplayer that suffers with lag, balancing, and a progression system tied to randomness.

Star Wars Battlefront II features a lackluster campaign, but there's a great multiplayer game here that is unfortunately held back by its progression system and, in turn, balancing issues. Regardless, it's worth experiencing for its engaging multiplayer space battles alone.
I honestly don't want a game to turn out bad or anything but Battlefront 2 is a huge disappointment that carries the Star Wars brand just to sell more. Even if you're a huge Star Wars fan, don't go buying Battlefront 2 cause it's an empty, shallow and boring experience made by people who can't portray this world with style and substance made just to make EA profit from a big franchise

when it comes to Multiplayer Star Wars: Battlefront 2 offers exciting and enjoyable elements, but the story doesn't add up to the game it could be finished in less than 4 hours, no need to say how much loot boxes affected the game progressions, but when you put everything negative aside Star Wars: Battlefront 2 still a mediocre game.

Although an improved sequel, there is both good and bad in Star Wars Battlefront II. Class-based troopers and a smart reinforcement system are hindered by horrid progression. The large modes succeed, when there are no bottlenecks or balance issues. And if the single player cared about its main character, then it would have complimented the game's astounding presentation.
Star Wars Battlefront II's progression system may indeed be piss poor and too loot box centered, but that doesn't stop it from being a mighty fine way to spend your time.
If you love Star Wars and want to play online with friends, you be better off picking up the Ultimate Edition of the original Star Wars Battlefront or just wait until this embarrassment is in the bargain bin. The Force is not with this one.
Star Wars Battlefront II gets a lot of things right. The presentation is absolutely top-notch, the gameplay is fun and well-executed and the choice of property is among my fall-time favourites. Where Star Wars Battlefront II has hurt itself is in a lack of care around the ability to play with your friends and a progression system structure around microtransactions.
