If you're after a Star Wars game that didn't launch 16 years ago, check out our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order review. There's something quite lovely about this update, though: in somewhat sadder news, Star Wars Battlefront 2 (the DICE one from 2017, not the 2005 original) recently received its last content update, so it's almost as if things have come full circle. If you check out the Steam page for Battlefront classic, you'll notice that it's a) sitting pretty at an average user score of 10/10, and b) currently 50% off. This update is a curious one to say the least, arriving a whopping 16 years after Star Wars Battlefront initially launched, and almost entire year since the last official hotfix. The update also adds a variety of other changes to the game, including the addition of language support for French, Italian, German, and Spanish.
'Online multiplayer on Steam has been added to the game,' reads the official statement. Check out the official (ludicrous) announcement on Steam. The original Star Wars Battlefront game from 2004 was updated today, May 1, 2020, and afforded a fully-functioning online multiplayer server. Star Wars Battlefront, the original 2004 version, received an update today that added online multiplayer support.
