Some games fade out gracefully. Star Wars Battlefront 2 apparently missed that memo. For a title that launched back in 2017, got dragged for years, and officially stopped receiving major new support ages ago, it is still doing a remarkably good impression of a game that refuses to leave the party. And not in a sad, clinging-to-the-punch-bowl way. In a “why is this old shooter suddenly showing up everywhere again?” way. The clearest sign that this is not just recycled nostalgia came from Sony itself.

On This Day in Battlefront: The Darth Tyranus Update Dropped 7 Years Ago
If you were playing Star Wars Battlefront II back in its glory days, you probably remember exactly where you were when this happened: The Darth Tyranus Update released 7 years ago today. And it wasn’t just another patch — it was one of those updates that instantly changed the feel of the game, mainly because it finally brought in one of the most requested prequel-era villains. Yes… Count Dooku arrived. Count Dooku (Serenno’s Sith) Entered the Battlefield The update was headlined by Serenno’s Count Dooku, aka Darth Tyranus — smooth, brutal, and absolutely built for people who enjoy deleting enemies with elegant lightsaber swings and zero mercy.
