A massive amount of new content was just announced for the popular Star Wars Battlefront II video game during Gamescom 2019.
Coming later this month, players of the game can look forward to the addition of the Separatist Dreadnought and Republic Venator capital ship locations making their way to Heroes Versus Villains as playable levels, some improvements to the second phase of Capital Supremacy, a new Contextual Spawning system that will allow players to spawn on locations in addition to teammates, three new B1 Battle Droid appearances, and the unlocking of the Geonosis Droid appearance on all locations.
In September, Star Wars Battlefront II is due for a major update that will add the new planet of Felucia to Capital Supremacy, a new four player online co-op mode, a new single player large scale combat mode, the Clone Commando as a new reinforcement, and a community event to unlock a fresh A New Hope skin for Luke Skywalker.
