New Star Wars Game Info Leaked Online: First Assault

Lisa Clark

Star Wars: First Assault footage was leaked to Kotaku and is supposed to be the predecessor to Battlefront III. While we’re reading that this game could also be in limbo (like 1313), we’re hoping it’s still going to production. Some say it’s just another generic shooter game but there are fans who had high hopes for the potential of Star Wars: First Assault . As Kotaku posted on March 11th: Today, Kotaku can reveal that Star Wars: First Assault is a downloadable multiplayer shooter that was originally slated for release this spring. The game supports up to 16 players—one eight-person team of rebels and one eight-person team of Stormtroopers—as they face off on Star Wars worlds like Bespin and Tatooine. And according to one person familiar with the project, First Assault is “step zero” to the heavily-rumored, highly-anticipated Star Wars: Battlefront III. If First Assault sells well—assuming it is released at all—the third Battlefront could be next. They go on to describe the game in…

Star Wars Battlefront II Update Fixes Error Code 721 — Finally, a Stable Connection to the Galaxy

gingetattoo

After years of players mashing the “Retry” button like it was a QTE on Mustafar, Star Wars Battlefront II has finally fixed Error Code: 721 — the infamous message that turned online matchmaking into a Sith trial. If you’ve ever tried logging in, only to be greeted with “Failed to connect to the EA Servers,” you already know the struggle. But as of this week, a new update has resolved the issue, and galactic peace (or at least stable matchmaking) has been restored. 🛠️ What Is Error Code 721 in Battlefront 2? In technical terms, Error 721 is what happens when your game refuses to connect to EA’s online services. In emotional terms, it’s the equivalent of Darth Vader Force-choking your internet connection. For some players, this meant retrying the login screen five, ten, or twenty times before finally loading into a match — if they were lucky. It affected…

Play as Cassian Andor in Star Wars Battlefront II – Mod Inspired by Andor Season 2

Star Wars Battlefront II Cassian Andor Mod – Strike Back Against the Empire in Rogue Style

Novara Skuara

Cassian Andor isn’t the flashiest rebel in the galaxy, but he’s arguably one of the most compelling. He doesn’t wield a lightsaber, doesn’t wear flashy robes, and definitely doesn’t wait around for destiny to call. He just gets the job done. So it’s fitting—and, frankly, long overdue—that modders brought him into Star Wars Battlefront II (2017) with the Fight the Empire as Cassian Andor mod. This mod lets you bring Cassian’s gritty, grounded energy straight into the heart of the battlefield. Whether you’re storming Imperial bases on Endor or holding your ground on Scarif, you’ll finally be able to do it wearing the jacket of one of the Rebellion’s most effective (and morally conflicted) operatives. And now that Andor Season 2 just launched a few days ago, what better time to relive the show’s tension-filled espionage, but with a lot more blaster fire and respawns? Let’s take a closer look…

Star Wars: Republic Commando

Star Wars: Republic Commando – Celebrating 20 Years of Tactical Squad Action

gingetattoo

Two decades ago, Star Wars: Republic Commando dropped onto the gaming scene, offering a completely new take on the Star Wars universe. Released on February 28, 2005, by LucasArts, this tactical first-person shooter put players in the boots of Delta Squad, an elite team of Clone Commandos operating behind enemy lines. Unlike the lightsaber-swinging, Force-powered heroes of other Star Wars games, Republic Commando focused on the gritty, boots-on-the-ground warfare of the Clone Wars. A New Take on Star Wars Combat Before Republic Commando, most Star Wars games revolved around Jedi, Sith, and space battles. This game, however, took a different approach, dropping players into intense, squad-based action. As RC-1138 (a.k.a. Boss), players led a team of elite clones—Fixer, Scorch, and Sev—each with distinct personalities and skills.

Star Wars Battlefront II: The Chosen One Update Turns Six

Soeren Kamper

Six years ago, Star Wars Battlefront II players witnessed the arrival of one of the most highly anticipated updates in the game’s history: The Chosen One Update. This patch didn’t just bring any Jedi—it introduced the legendary Anakin Skywalker, alongside the elite 501st Legion and Coruscant Guard.

Star Wars: X-Wing Turns 31 – A Look Back at the Game That Made Us Rebel Pilots

gingetattoo

On this day in 1993, Star Wars: X-Wing launched players into the cockpit of one of the most legendary starfighters in sci-fi history. It was the first game that truly made players feel like Rebel pilots, dodging TIE Fighters, protecting the fleet, and taking on the Empire’s deadliest warships in deep space.

The Ethics of Clone Armies: Politics and Morality in the Star Wars Universe

The Ethics of Clone Armies: Politics and Morality in the Star Wars Universe

Soeren Kamper

Few elements of the Star Wars universe spark as much moral and philosophical debate as the clone armies of the Republic. Born in test tubes and bred for war, the clones raise thorny questions about autonomy, rights, and the ethics of creating life solely for combat. This isn’t just a Star Wars problem—it’s a deep dive into politics, morality, and the gray areas in galactic ethics. Let’s journey to a galaxy far, far away and unpack the ethical and political implications of the Republic’s reliance on clone armies. Spoiler alert: things get messy. The Origins of the Clone Army: A Political Gamble The clone army wasn’t just a military decision; it was a political maneuver. Commissioned by the Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas (though with some suspicious Sith meddling), the Republic’s reliance on clones was meant to solve an urgent crisis—the threat of the Separatists. At first glance, the plan seemed genius….
