Looking Back: EA’s Star Wars Battlefront II and Its Bold Promise of New Movie Content

Rolling Back Time: Celebrating Five Years of Star Wars Battlefront II's Celebration Update

It’s been nine years since EA first announced Star Wars Battlefront II, promising content from the ‘new movies’ and a release just around the corner. The excitement was palpable—after all, this was the sequel to one of the most iconic Star Wars games ever made. But did it live up to the hype? Let’s take a trip down memory lane and see how that ambitious announcement shaped up. A Bold Announcement Back in 2016, EA made waves by confirming Star Wars Battlefront II would feature not only content from the Original and Prequel trilogies but also from the new movies. At the time, that meant The Force Awakens and the upcoming The Last Jedi. For Star Wars enthusiasts, this was the ultimate selling point—battles on Jakku, fights with Kylo Ren, and maybe even a chance to take down the First Order on Starkiller Base. The trailer dropped with epic visuals,…

Star Wars Battlefront II: Saw Gerrera’s Rebel Partisan – The Resistance Just Got Gritty

Star Wars Battlefront II: Saw Gerrera's Rebel Partisan – The Resistance Just Got Gritty

Saw Gerrera is a name that’s become synonymous with rebellion—real rebellion. If the Rebel Alliance is the face of organized resistance, Saw Gerrera’s Partisans are the underground brawlers, the ones doing the dirty work on the frontlines. Andor gave us a gritty look at how these fighters operate, with no frills, no mercy, and certainly no compromise. Now, thanks to the Saw Gerrera’s Rebel Partisan Mod for Star Wars Battlefront II (2017), you can step into that role and bring a little bit of Andor-style chaos to the battlefield. This mod replaces Finn with a fully-realized Partisan soldier, complete with the iconic scout helmet and custom portrait.

Star Wars Battlefront II: Crimson Dawn Maul Mod – Star Cards and Text With a Side of Dark Side Sass

Star Wars Battlefront II: Crimson Dawn Maul Mod – Star Cards and Text With a Side of Dark Side Sass

Darth Maul didn’t just survive The Phantom Menace. He thrived. Spider legs, Mandalorian alliances, and eventually, a glow-up into the stylish crimelord of Crimson Dawn. So naturally, it was only a matter of time before a mod brought that dark swagger to Star Wars: Battlefront II (2017). Enter the Crimson Dawn Maul – Star Cards and Text Overhaul, a mod that swaps out the Sith assassin’s original content with a fresh coat of “Syndicate Boss Realness.” This one doesn’t change Maul’s outfit or animations, but instead retools the star cards and all related text elements to match his Crimson Dawn persona—just in case you wanted to pair lightsaber violence with mafia-level cool. It’s sharp. It’s slick. And it’s surprisingly immersive for a text-based mod. What Does the Crimson Dawn Maul Mod Actually Do? Let’s get into the meat of it. This mod replaces Darth Maul’s in-game star card names, descriptions,…

The mod transforms her in-game appearance to reflect the Zygerrian slave outfit from the animated series. If that sentence alone raised an eyebrow, buckle in. A Quick Refresher: When Ahsoka Got Captured If you’ve been deep into Star Wars movies, books, comics, or video games, you probably remember the Zygerrian arc. In Season 4 of The Clone Wars, Ahsoka Tano infiltrates a Zygerrian slave market during a tense undercover operation. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t go great. She ends up…
