Star Wars Battlefront 2 for Free on Epic Games Store
Starting today, you can get Star Wars: Battlefront II in Celebration Edition for free on Epic Games Store. You can pick up the game until next Thursday.
Another free game appeared on Epic Games Store. As previously announced, this is Star Wars: Battlefront II Celebration Edition. Those interested in getting the title have a chance to add it to their accounts until January 21, at 8:00 AM PT. At the same time another free title was revealed. It will be Galactic Civilizations III.
Star Wars: Battlefront II is a multiplayer-focused FPS/TPS set in the Star Wars universe. The title met with huge criticism shortly after launch, resulting from the invasive microtransaction system. This translated into a moderately warm reception - on Metacritic the average rating for the PC version is only 65%. Over time, however, EA withdrew from the aggressive lootbox system, introducing the ability to purchase only cosmetic objects.
It is worth remembering that recently there has been a lot of commotion related to Star Wars games. A few days ago, information appeared that may suggest that Star Wars: Battlefront 3 is in development. Additionally, Disney decided to resurrect Lucasfilm Games. It was also announced that Ubisoft is working on a game set in this universe. As a result, EA has lost its monopoly on publishing licensed Star Wars games.
