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. Enter Hero Starfighters, a new game mode that made space battles more than just background noise. The setup was clean and brutal: It…
Star Wars: Battlefront
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…
Star Wars: Battlefront II – Swap the Default Intro with Niamos Vibes
The galaxy’s seen its fair share of epic intros, but let’s be honest—after your 187th login to Star Wars: Battlefront II (2017), that default game intro hits more like a wet sponge than a hypersonic Star Destroyer flyby.

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.

On This Day in Battlefront History: The Star Wars Battlefront Official Trailer Dropped 11 Years Ago at E3
Eleven years ago today, the galaxy held its collective breath as Star Wars Battlefront made its triumphant return with an official trailer at EA’s E3 2014 conference.

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

Star Wars Battlefront 2 Is Poppin’ Off Again—But EA Would Rather You Join EA Play Than Make a New Game
So, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is suddenly one of the hottest games on the galaxy’s radar again. Eight years after launch. Four years after official support ended. Two years after everyone said “RIP” and moved on to other shooters. And EA? They’ve noticed the party… but instead of bringing cake, they brought a subscription plug. A Long Time Ago in a Dead Game Far, Far Away Let’s talk timeline. Battlefront 2 launched in 2017 and, well, let’s just say it wasn’t smooth hyperspace travel. The microtransactions drama alone could fill a HoloNet crime report. But after some serious patching and a progression overhaul that didn’t feel like it was written by Jabba the Hutt’s accountants, the game turned things around. Support officially ended in 2020. DICE (the developers) pitched Battlefront 3. EA rejected it. Something-something about licensing costs, something-something lightsaber-shaped dollar signs. DICE moved back to Battlefield. And that seemed…
