STAR WARS Battlefront II is a DICE-developed shooter from Electronic Arts that drops players into massive, galaxy-spanning battles across three eras—Prequel, Classic (Original Trilogy), and the Sequel trilogy—on iconic planets. The package also features an emotional single-player campaign that spans thirty years, letting you rise as a new hero amid the ongoing conflict between the light and dark sides, with multiplayer supporting up to 40 players in large-scale battles. This blend of epic battlefield action and a cinematic campaign defines the game’s core appeal. More details about the era scope and campaign are provided by the official Celebration Edition overview. The Rise of Skywalker content and multi-era gameplay are highlighted in the official release notes.

The Star Wars Battlefront II: Celebration Edition bundles the base game with the complete collection of customization content available up to the Rise of Skywalker release, including a wealth of appearances, emotes, and victory poses across all three eras. It includes more than 25 Hero appearances (six Legendary), 125+ Trooper/Reinforcement appearances, and 100+ emotes/voice lines, with Rise of Skywalker-inspired options for Rey, Finn, and Kylo Ren. The edition also introduces new Rise of Skywalker content on December 17, 2019, such as a Jungle planet and new Reinforcements, while noting that content released after December 20, 2019 is not included. Existing players can upgrade to Celebration Edition for a discounted price. Official Celebration Edition details and Rise of Skywalker rollout are documented by EA. Steam’s listing reiterates the included content and era-spanning multiplayer experience.
