At EA Play, we announced that we’re bringing more Clone Wars era content* to Star Wars™ Battlefront™ II. We also said we would provide a Roadmap for Battlefront II after the end of the Han Solo Season, in an effort to increase transparency to our players and fans as to what updates will come to the game and when.

Today, we’re giving you that overview of the road ahead.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: More content and features to be confirmed in future roadmap updates.

The Roadmap covers new content such as modes, heroes, appearances, maps, features, and other game improvements. It doesn’t include specifics on ongoing efforts such as bug fixing, balancing, map rotation, matchmaking, or improvements to daily challenges, as these happen constantly.

This marks a new way for us to communicate and provide transparency as to what is coming to Star Wars Battlefront II. While we try our best to stick to the Roadmap, adjustments do happen, and updates might get brought forward or back. We will communicate changes as quickly as we can. And as a rule of thumb, we will try to update the Roadmap on a monthly cadence.
