Star Wars Battlefront 2
Star Wars Battlefront 2 was a decent enough action shooter on launch, but developers DICE, overly concerned this sequel wouldn’t capitalise enough on its predecessor’s success, opted to lock the franchise’s most storied heroes behind insurmountable pay-to-win progression. It took a year post-launch before Battlefront 2 became a welcoming prospect. All but gone were loot boxes, with these updates also decluttering customisation whilst bringing new, attainable heroes. Updates may have continued were it not for the pandemic but, as it was left, Battlefront 2 ticks almost all its boxes.
