What This Mod Does

Instead of generic loading visuals, you’ll now be greeted by a 2K resolution artwork inspired by the Thrawn Trilogy era. The clean, crisp imagery is optimized for modern screens, meaning you’ll get a sharp, cinematic-quality splash every time you boot the game.

Ultra-clean 2K resolution for sharp details on any monitor
Thematic art based on the original Thrawn book trilogy aesthetic
Lightweight install – no performance hit
Perfect for Legends fans who want that old EU magic in their game

And because it only alters the frontend screen, it’s compatible with almost every other Battlefront II mod—so your Clone Wars reskins, cinematic lighting tweaks, or even that cheeky casino-themed HUD can stay right where they are.

Why It Hits Different for Thrawn Fans

The Thrawn Trilogy isn’t just another set of Star Wars novels—it’s the cornerstone of post-Original Trilogy storytelling. Timothy Zahn’s tactical genius of a villain brought a new flavor of menace to the galaxy, and his art appreciation meets military strategy vibe makes him a fan favorite.

Booting into Battlefront II and seeing Thrawn-era imagery sets a tone before you even pick a game mode. It’s a reminder that Star Wars is more than just blaster fights—it’s political intrigue, brilliant strategy, and yes… occasionally gambling on which fleet move will outmaneuver the enemy.

Perfect for Immersive Star Wars Roleplay & Esports Setups

If you’re the type to stream Battlefront II in an esports-style event or use it in a fan tournament setting, presentation matters. This mod adds a pro, thematic polish to your setup, making your load screens part of the show.

And let’s be honest—if you’re the kind of player who thinks strategically about every match like a sabacc shark at a Corellian casino table, you’ll appreciate the calculated calm that a Thrawn-themed intro brings.

When I was 7, I saw Star Wars: A New Hope in theaters a week after it opened. My parents were nice enough to take me and I have been a fan of Star Wars and almost all science fiction in general. I am an amateur writer who has been published for contributing flavor text to a RP game. I also have a copyright on a novel I hope to be able to publish sometime soon.
