The Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection is a mess at launch, but you don't need to buy it right now to experience the classic games it features.
Contents The new package contains some of the best Star Wars video games ever made, which are all now widely available with multiplayer support across all modern platforms. Star Wars: Battlefront II is my favorite game of all time, so I was ecstatic about its announcement at February’s Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase.
“At launch, we experienced critical errors with our network infrastructure. The result was incredibly high ping, matchmaking errors, crashes, and servers not appearing in the browser,” a message posted on Aspyr’s support site shortly after this collection’s release explained. “Since launch, we’ve been working to address these issues and increase network stability, and we will continue our efforts until our network infrastructure is stabilized to prevent further outages.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is still worth playing Don’t let all this dissuade you from trying Star Wars: Battlefront II specifically; it’s my favorite game of all time for good reason. I consider the Battlefront games to be the ultimate Star Wars sandboxes. They offer up a multitude of different Star Wars locales to fight in, and plenty of Republic, CIS, Rebel, and Empire units to choose from.
Star Wars: Battlefront II’s shooting might be a bit dated compared to modern games, but I don’t mind when the rest of the package is so strong. I consider it a must-play for any Star Wars or shooter game fan, so it’s disappointing that Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection isn’t a great product. Thankfully, you still have other options if you’re on Steam or Xbox.
