EA Smashes Expectations Thanks to a Surprise Hero: Star Wars Battlefront II

Who knew a 2017 title could be EA’s secret weapon in 2025?

It’s thriving. That’s right. The same game once mired in controversy over loot boxes is now leading the charge in EA’s stronger-than-expected quarter. Sometimes, the Force really does awaken. A Strong Quarter with a Galactic Twist EA reported $1.671 billion in net revenue for the quarter ending June 30, far surpassing expectations. Net bookings came in at $1.298 billion, brushing the top end of guidance, even as net profit slipped to $201 million—a 28% drop year-over-year.

Better BB-9E Mod for Star Wars Battlefront II: The Droid Glow-Up You Didn’t Know You Needed

BB-9E droid in Battlefront II with fire and destruction in the background

BB-9E—aka the First Order’s answer to BB-8—has never exactly been the most intimidating presence on the battlefield. Sure, he rolls around zapping enemies and buffing teammates like a loyal space-Roomba, but let’s face it: his default design in Star Wars: Battlefront II felt like he was built in a hurry and approved by a middle manager with a clipboard.

Darth Maul in Battlefront II with Community Quest rewards "Vigilant" pose and "Kenobi" voice line (July 11–21).

Back in a galaxy not so far away—just five years ago, actually—DICE released one of Star Wars Battlefront II’s most unexpectedly fun updates. While it wasn’t a new hero or a map expansion, it was something that brought out the completionist in all of us: unlockable voice lines and victory poses through Community Quests. Yep, on this very day, Star Wars Battlefront II players were given a reason to grind together—not for credits or crates, but for the pure dopamine hit of hearing Palpatine drop a new line of sass or seeing Finn strike a heroic pose at the end of a match.

Rogue One’s Vader Hallway Scene Gets an Accidental Remake in Star Wars Battlefront II

A hooded figure wielding a glowing red energy weapon charges through a dark sci-fi hallway filled with smoke and enemies.

Some moments in Star Wars are so iconic, they live rent-free in the collective gaming subconscious. Case in point: the infamous Darth Vader hallway massacre from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. It’s cinematic brutality at its finest—dark corridor, panicked Rebels, and Vader igniting his saber like the embodiment of fear itself. Well, that scene just got a surprising revival in an entirely different medium: a spontaneous match of Star Wars Battlefront II. And no, it wasn’t some planned machinima project—it was pure chaos magic, captured mid-game by a Reddit user who had no idea what they were recreating until it was too late. From Steam Lobby to Sith Legend: The Accidental Recreation Reddit user u/NikolaMirzai recently shared a clip on the r/StarWarsBattlefront subreddit titled: “I accidentally recreated the hallway scene…but on Steam.” And yes—it’s exactly what it sounds like. In a hero-vs-troopers skirmish, the player (as Vader) storms a…

X-Wing and TIE Fighter engage in fiery space combat in Battlefront II’s Hero Starfighters mode.

Hard to believe, but it’s been seven years since Star Wars Battlefront II dropped one of its most beloved and underrated updates: Hero Starfighters. Released on July 3, 2018, this free content update didn’t just toss in a game mode—it gave players a reason to master the skies, go full throttle with iconic ships, and, yes, fly as Lando’s Sullustan co-pilot with style. The update was a turning point. Not in the “we’ve redefined multiplayer” way, but in that subtle, satisfying “hey, this game’s finally getting polished” kind of way. Let’s take a hyperspace jump back and unpack what made this update soar. Hero Starfighters: When the Skies Got Personal Before this patch, Battlefront II had solid starfighter mechanics—but no real way to make them feel personal.

8 Years Since the Battlefront II Alpha Stormed PC: Remember This?

Eight years ago, on June 29, 2017, a select group of lucky players got their first hands-on experience with Star Wars Battlefront II (2017) during its closed Alpha on PC. If you were part of that early wave, you probably still remember the sheer chaos of Naboo, the strangely OP Boba Fett builds, and the wildly mixed expectations hanging over EA DICE like a Death Star. It wasn’t just a test—it was a statement. And depending on who you asked, it was either a teaser of greatness to come or a glimpse of the Battlefront’s brewing identity crisis. What Was the Star Wars Battlefront II Alpha? The Alpha was a tightly controlled early-access test that gave PC players a bite-sized preview of what DICE and EA had cooked up for their next-gen Star Wars shooter. Unlike the controversial 2015 reboot, Battlefront II promised more content at launch, more eras, and—most…

Enter the NIAMOS INTRO mod — a cinematic replacement that injects some well-deserved swagger into your startup sequence. What Is the Niamos Intro Mod? This mod doesn’t change your loadouts, classes, or blaster fire—what it does is switch out the generic opening cinematic with a custom-rendered sequence straight out of Niamos, the techno-beach paradise introduced in Andor. It’s the one place in the Star Wars universe where stormtroopers walk past guys in neon shorts holding mojitos—and yes, that slaps. The mod replaces the intro video with a polished, stylized visual that captures the sunny, synthy…

A Comeback Story That’s Almost Canon-Worthy Let’s be honest—Battlefront II didn’t exactly launch as the chosen one back in 2017.
