The end sequence is a neat insight into one of the main villains’ powers and of course sets up another piece of story that will be coming in a free DLC sometime in the future. The campaign is a pretty short one, coming in around only 5 hours without finding all collectibles and of course once the action and story starts getting interesting it ends with a massive cliffhanger.
Its best moments are when you’re going from ground combat to air combat within the same mission and particularly in one of the later levels this is done very well and is an utter blast.
That being said the campaign is still very fun to play through and while it doesn’t offer up anything very new to the shooter genre (oftentimes feeling like they are checking off the typical shooter segments) it is still enjoyable. Now I won’t go into any spoilers here, but I was extremely disappointed in the direction they went with the story. Unfortunately, what we get here is a cookie cutter plot with a very obvious love story thrown in there. Things that, as the player, you may object to. I was initially very excited to finally play a story that focused on an elite squad working for the bad guys where we might see the inner workings of the Empire and do some pretty questionable things. You will have the opportunity to play untold sections of some of our favorite heroes such as Luke Skywalker, Lando Calrissian, Kylo Ren, Princess Leia Organa, and Han Solo. The Story spans 30 years, beginning in the last few moments of the Galactic Civil War and concluding around the destruction of the Starkiller Base. Upon witnessing the destruction of the second Death Star, the Inferno Squad in disarray looks to their Commander for direction, who tells them they will avenge the Emperor. Star Wars Battlefront 2 follows the Inferno Squad, an Imperial special forces unit led by Commander Iden Versio. So has the Galactic EAmpire delivered their Death Star blow on the industry or has the Alliance fought the good fight? This review isn’t going to cover what Battlefront 2 once was or what it will be in 6 months when the Micro-transactions (MT’s) come back or even whether MT’s and Loot Boxes should even be in a full priced title, but it will cover the current state of the game. The Alliance fight and while the Rebels stood their ground and made a point that not all citizens are falling for their terrible ways, the Empire won’t be backing down fully. The fight between greedy practices in the gaming industry has finally come to a head and EA seems to have spearheaded this, which honestly doesn’t come as a surprise given how they have been operating lately. Star Wars Battlefront 2 has to have been the most interesting game launch in a very long time.
