While Star Wars Battlefront received a number of major DLCs, this will reportedly no longer be the case for its successor according to Electronic Arts.
With the DLCs for Star Wars Battlefront, many important innovations and content for the multiplayer part were introduced, including new scenarios and heroes. However, fans were not pleased with this, as essentially one only received the complete game if they purchased all the DLCs – either individually or in the form of the Season Pass. Publisher Electronic Arts responded to this criticism and announced a revision of the DLC model for Star Wars Battlefront 2.
No more Season Pass and less relevant DLCs
This means that there will likely be no more Season Pass. The relevance of the DLCs is expected to be lower than in its predecessor. Apparently, they want to orient themselves more towards the model of Titanfall 2 or Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege, with smaller DLCs containing content that can be unlocked within the game itself. However, EA’s Blake J. Jorgensen did not want to go into detail about the new plans during a conference call with investors. These are to be presented in more detail during the EA Play event in June.
Player feedback is being heard
With this change, Electronic Arts also wants to show that they place great importance on player feedback and take criticism to heart. All fans of Star Wars Battlefront 2 can be curious about what the plans for the DLCs will look like. EA refers to this as event-driven live service gameplay. Now, speculation can run high about what all of this might entail.
