Developed by DICE and published by EA, Star Wars Battlefront II faced controversy upon release due to its implementation of loot boxes and their potential impact on gameplay fairness. Despite the initial reception, reflected in its Metacritic score of 66, the game achieved considerable sales, leveraging the enduring popularity of the Star Wars franchise before its extensive expansion by Disney.
The free download available on Xbox is the Celebration Edition, which bundles the base game with extensive bonus content. This includes over 25 Hero Appearances, more than 125 Trooper and Reinforcement Appearances, over 100 Hero and Trooper Emotes and Voice Lines, and more than 70 Hero and Trooper Victory Poses. This edition offers a comprehensive Star Wars Battlefront II experience.
