As part of today?s Nintendo Direct (https://youtu.be/0ER2hl7HUWI?feature=shared), Aspyr and Lucasfilm Games have announced Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, a compilation of the two online multiplayer games.
The original Star Wars: Battlefront was released in 2004, followed by Star Wars: Battlefront II in 2005. Both were largely multiplayer affairs that generally followed the capture framework set by 2002?s Battlefield 1942, but with a Star Wars twist.

In 2015, EA would return to the series with the simply titled Star Wars: Battlefront in 2015 followed by Star Wars: Battlefront II in 2017. Video games, am I right? Whether or not these later games live up to the originals depends on who you ask. For those who prefer the classic PS2/Xbox/PC games, having them collected on modern platforms is a good get. They support 64 players online and include all the bonus/expansion content.
Personally, I preferred the Battlefield 1942 mod, Battlefield: Galactic Conquest (https://www.moddb.com/mods/battlefield-galactic-conquest). It was pretty janky, but being built on top of Battlefield 1942 makes it instantly superior. You heard me.
Still, this is pretty tempting. It?s too bad they couldn?t also fit in Free Radical?s Star Wars: Battlefront 3, which was canceled despite allegedly being mostly finished (https://www.destructoid.com/battlefront-3-killed-by-psychopaths-at-lucasarts/). Video games, am I right?
Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection will be available on Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 14, 2024.
