10 Reasons You're Wrong About Star Wars: Battlefront 2

1. It's Not Over Yet...

Star Wars Battlefront 2
EA

In case you hadn't noticed, there's a new Star Wars film coming out this December. Given the releases of Battlefront and Battlefront II, it would probably be wise, then, to assume that a third entry in the series will arrive around the same time, right?

Well, maybe not.

The next Star Wars game on the horizon is Respawn's Jedi Fallen Order, which is set to release in winter 2019. As for Battlefront, neither EA nor DICE have indicated when a third game could arrive, and given how the first sequel's roadmap was delayed by major changes to the progression system, it would be wise to assume that Battlefront II has plenty more fuel left in the tank.

Anakin Skywalker is set to come in February, with additional game modes to come shortly after, but more content is rumoured to arrive later in the year too.

Either way, this could be the beginning of something new for DICE's much maligned shooter. It wasn't without its issues, but with enough TLC, Battlefront II has managed to turn its fortunes around and become something rather enjoyable.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
