Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is more than 12 years old, but it has received two patches in the past four months, leaving fans of the old Pandemic Studios-developed shooter wondering who exactly is behind these updates. It turns out that although Disney isn’t making console or PC games anymore, it’s still working with partners to maintain older titles.
LucasArts originally published Star Wars: Battlefront 2, and Disney took control of the game when it acquired LucasArts’ parent company, Lucasfilm, in 2012. (Note that 2005’s Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is unrelated to the similarly titled Electronic Arts-published game Star Wars Battlefront 2, which was released in November 2017.)
