When the original Battlefront I and II released in the early ‘00’s, while I was playing many video games at that time as I transitioned from grade school to high school, these Star Wars gaming classics consumed much of my time. I tried revisiting Battlefront II on PC (I played them on PlayStation back in the day), ahead of Battlefront II’s (2017) release, and it didn’t quite click like it used to, but it might’ve been more me than how the game had aged. Regardless, they have a special spot in my heart and the announcement of the Battlefront Classic Collection has me excited to try them again when they launch on March 15, with tons of extra content and the multiplayer servers open and ready for battle again. I might not have as much time as I did in 2004/5 to play these now, but if you’re on PlayStation, I’m a trusty fighter to have by your side so make sure to friend me: BrushYourTeeth. Head below for more details and a few screenshots of the updated action!
