Star Wars Battlefront 2: 10 New Gameplay Details You Need To Know

3. You'll Unlock Deluxe Content By Playing (No Need To Pre-Order?)

DICE need to walk and weave a fine line for the rest of this year. On the one hand - like many developers - they want nothing more than to please the fans, pulling out every last stop to not get labelled amongst the same money-grubbing likes of their very own publisher. Of course, said publisher are EA, and their goodwill only goes so far before cold, hard business realities set in.

To that end, we've got developer Christian Johannesén mentioning that you can unlock 'Deluxe Content' just by playing (what a novel thought!), yet doing so would completely nullify the existence and intent of pre-ordering.

Coupled with the abolition of the Season Pass, this seems way too good to be true, considering how wallet-pilfering EA's business models have been in literally every other game they make. Fingers crossed those who 'only' shell out for the 'standard edition' aren't left out in the cold in the long run, as for now, DICE and EA are getting everything right.
