Star Wars Battlefront II Comes Back Bigger Than Ever
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:
One player found an unusual way to roam Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s New York City as Venom again. However, intentionally crashing your game during a story segment requires nerves of steel, so we wouldn’t recommend it. Possible Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 spoilers!
UnderTheHood788 explained their method, which involves reaching a cutscene that switches players to Peter. They unplugged their PS5 when the screen blanked while switching to fidelity mode. As the game renders slower, fidelity mode was used. Players get Don’t Be Scared, a mission without an objective, after reloading the last save.
UnderTheHood788 advises, “Wait a bit and go to an unidentified target mission or talon drone mission to become Venom. Reload and become Venom, committing crimes against hunters, the flame, thugs, and even symbiotes. Bases are possible.”
If you like causing carnage, get a move on—Insomniac will spoil the fun in the next update. This indirect approach—what do you think?
On December 7, Ubisoft’s Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora hits PS5. Fans can expect new creatures, characters, and storylines that are influencing other Avatar projects as part of James Cameron’s canon.
Massive Entertainment director Magnus Jansén told IGN that the game’s new Western Frontier region—from plants to Na’vi clans—is now Avatar lore: “The Western Frontier is no less a part of the world of Avatar than what’s in the movies.” Jansén says one of their creations is in an Avatar exhibition, but most excitingly, “there is already some talk about maybe using some of the stuff that we did in the upcoming movies.”
Jon Landau, producer of the Avatar films, said: “I think clans are a perfect thing to someday try to weave into the movies. However, new environments follow. Go and say, “Okay, let’s explore what you did in the video game in the movie.” Frontiers of Pandora introduces the Aranahe, Zeswa, and Kame’tire Na’vi clans.
In addition, Lightstorm VP of franchise development Joshua Izzo teased: “I can say that there are going to be some future sequel elements in Frontiers of Pandora that will pay off when the movie comes out when Avatar 3 comes out in 2025. Because of ’25, careful Avatar fans may want to revisit certain things.
CD Projekt’s live-action Cyberpunk 2077 won’t arrive until 2025. In the company’s latest earnings call, the PM project was only mentioned as not expected in 2024.
During a call with IGN, chief commercial officer Michał Nowakowski stated that the company will continue to promote the game and develop the Cyberpunk IP through activities beyond the game.
Nowakowski said, “We’re not really discussing specifics here, but one of the obvious things that we have announced, not happening next year, but going to be developed or moved in the direction next year, is the project we have announced with Anonymous Content.”
Anonymous Content, which produced Crime & Punishment, True Detective, and Mr. Robot, seems like a good fit to bring Night City’s mean streets to life. We don’t know if the project will be a TV show, movie, game adaptation, or standalone story.
