Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection Announced, Includes Online and New Content

Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection

Developer Aspyr, the studio behind the recent Tomb Raider Trilogy Remastered, has just announced that they’re releasing yet another classic collection of games, and it’s from a galaxy far, far away. That’s right; Star Wars Battlefront is back in an all-new classic collection, which sees the original two Battlefront games brought back in their full online glory for modern consoles. 

Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection

Talk about a massive surprise for Star Wars fans! Never did we expect to see these two come back, especially when you consider EA has its own Battlefront series. 

The return of these two isn’t the only exciting thing either, as Aspy is restoring the bonus content for both games, as well as adding achievements/trophies, and other modern-day features. 

Here’s a breakdown of what’s included:

Star Wars Battlefront (Classic)

Battlefront Classic: 17 total maps

  • Includes Bonus Map: Jabba’s Palace

Star Wars Battlefront II

Battlefront II: 22 ground maps, 6 space maps, and 9 more space maps exclusive to the single-player campaign and galactic conquest

  • Includes Bonus Maps: Bespin: Cloud City, Rhen Var: Harbor, Rhen Var: Citadel, and Yavin 4: Arena 
  • Includes Bonus Heroes: Asajj Ventress & Kit Fisto

64 Players Online and Modes

Conquest: Capture control points and deplete the enemy resources

Capture the Flag (CTF): Play with 1 or 2 flags, on the ground or in space

Hunt: Clear the battlefield as soldiers or defend your planet as native species (yes, you can play as an Ewok)

Assault (Space): Pilot legendary starships: TIE fighters, X-wings, and more in space and air dogfights

Hero Assault: Originally only available on Tatooine, hero assault pits heroes against villains in an arena battle for the highest score. We’ve expanded Hero Assault to be playable on all ground maps, which means you can face off on the Death Star, Kamino, Naboo, and many more locations.

Offline 2-Player splitscreen is included. Cozy up on the couch because 2-player splitscreen is included. And it feels like an offline blast from the past.

Solo Experiences

XL mode premiers on PlayStation 

Storm the sandy beaches of Kashyyyk, survive the dusty dunes of Geonosis, or relive the iconic Hoth battle, complete with AT-ATs, snipers, mounted guns, snowspeeders, and tow cables.

The return of Galactic Conquest

Craft your own Star Wars story in Galactic Conquest. Devise your strategy, recruit your troops, and execute your tactical vision for conquering the galaxy. Will Luke Skywalker kneel to the might of the Empire? Will Mace Windu defeat Lord Sidius? The galaxy’s fate is in your hands.

And the classic single-player campaigns

Relive iconic battles from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope,  Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi in Star Wars Battlefront I’s campaign mode, where you’ll be at the center of the galaxy-shaping events. 

PLUS

Join the elite 501st Legion of Stormtroopers and experience the rise of Darth Vader in Star Wars Battlefront II’s campaign mode. 

The Star Wars Battlefront Collection will be available on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox, and PC (Steam) starting March 14!
