Star Wars Battlefront 2 Review: 5 Ups & 5 Downs

3. The Sound Is (Mostly) Terrific

As with the visuals, Battlefront 2's aural department is second-to-none in terms of replicating the sound of the Star Wars universe, and as low-effort as much of the game seems, that certainly doesn't apply to the stellar audio work.

From the iconic blaster sound effects to the unforgettable orchestral score and even the incidental dialogue during multiplayer, it all sounds incredibly faithful to this world, and played with a great set of headphones, the feeling of immersion is absolutely incredible.

Sure, some of the soundalikes in the campaign mode are pretty suspect (especially the hilariously unconvincing Luke Skywalker), but for the majority, it sounds magnificent.
