Not only do other players pose a threat to you in space, but your environment does as well. Familiar vehicles from the first game are given new abilities. The steering controls are less tight than before, which takes a little getting used to.

Battlefront 2 has totally redesigned the Starfighter gameplay in a great way! Yes there are some similarities to the original (and one thing that I wish they left in), but it feels totally different and more polished. The team at EA has taken that experience, hidden it in a lock box, inside of a closet, in a house that has since been blown to smithereens.

Starfighter battles in Star Wars Battlefront seemed a bit clunky and sort of thrown in as an afterthought. Add some John Williams inspired music, and you have a cherry on top of that ice cream sundae of a game! EA has added true-to-life (is that even possible in a make believe world) TIE-Fighter flight sounds, X-Wing blasters, Clone trooper blasters, and even the great “Roger-Roger” from Battle Droids. If you love the sounds of Star Wars vehicles and just general sounds of blasters, lightsabers and droids, then this game is going to overpower your senses. The gameplay looks almost as good as the cinematic cut screens, and that is saying a lot! Seriously, there is no complaining on a standard Playstation 4. I have been playing the beta on a regular Playstation 4 console, so I am going to guess that the graphics will blow your socks off on a PS4 Pro or Xbox One X. Whether you are running through the streets of Theed or flying above Fondor, you will feel like you are right there in the worlds that Lucasfilm has created. Characters and environments look absolutely stunning. Like its predecessor, Star Wars Battlefront 2 delivers a knockout blow in the graphics department. So what has EA learned from the release of the first game two years ago? Will it pack more of a punch, giving gamers more a of a complete game than the previous release? Let’s dive in and find out! Star Wars Battlefront 2 Beta Pros and Cons Pros Star Wars fans and general gamers have been waiting all year, and EA has given us a little appetizer in the form of the beta release, before the main course in November. It is finally here! The granddaddy of all video games of 2017, Star Wars Battlefront II.
