Controversy is difficult to thing to shed, and it’s something that’s impossible to avoid when discussing Star Wars Battlefront 2 in any kind of depth. Microtransactions - or loot boxes as the cool kids know them now - are a fundamental part of the game’s progression system, so the advantage of paying real world money for better gear and abilities looms large.

However, it’s just as impossible to ignore how far Swedish studio DICE has improved on the 2015 original. Battlefront was the most authentic Star Wars game to date two years ago, even if a barebones approach to progression and core multiplayer systems left it feeling a little hollow in places. Not to mention the painful lack of any single-player content.
