Today at EA’s E3 Press Conference, EA dropped some massive details about the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront 2.

Battlefront II’s content will be three times as big as the original Star Wars Battlefront on PS4 and XB1. It will also feature content from across all eras of Star Wars that includes Prequels, Original Trilogy, and New Trilogy. Battlefront II sets out to bridge the gap between

Battlefront II’s single-player campaign sets out to bridge the gap between Return of the Jedi and Force Awakens.

The game’s multiplayer will include a thing called Battle points which acts as an in-battle currency to buy things like weapons and vehicles. You will start each match with 0 Battle points and they will accrue as you continue to play any given match by doing various actions.

EA also took the time to announce that Battlefront II multiplayer will feature 20 vs 20 matches. To showcase this, they showed 30 minutes of multiplayer map Theed, which is new to BFII. You may know Theed from Episode I where it appeared as Naboo’s capital city. While on Theed, you’ll be able to pilot the various starships seen in Episode I’s battle of Naboo.

BFII’s multiplayer will include multiple Force Awakens Characters such as Rey, Kylo Ren, Finn, and Captain Phasma.

Finn and Captain Phasma were announced to be available later as DLC, but luckily EA also announced that all post-launch content will be available via free updates to Battlefront II. The pair will be included in Decembers DLC drop which will come with the map Crait as well. Crait is the planet seen you may have seen in the trailer for The Last Jedi and I’m sure it will be a delight to play on.

Now, enjoy the Battlefront II trailer EA so pleasantly dropped at the end of their presentation:

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
