Star Wars Battlefront II is a singleplayer and multiplayer first-person and shooter game in the Star Wars: Battlefront series.
The game was released on November 17, 2017, and was heavily criticized by early adopters for its loot box system, calling it a "pay-to-win" system, due to its close tie to multiplayer progression.[2][3] Players who did not want to pay to unlock the game's lootboxes, which contained important items that was crucial to multiplayer progression, was forced to grind for hours to unlock their desired hero characters and multiplayer-specific items.[4] This issue was publicized and led to a government investigation revolving around the game and lootboxes as a whole,[5] forcing DICE to reduce hero costs[6] and disable microtransactions temporarily.[7][8] EA's response regarding the matter was also very controversial and led to more negative press about the game.[9] Lootboxes in Battlefront II would eventually be disabled in a March 2018 update,[10] tying game progression to experience points earned through playing online. In addition, the game's currencies were repurposed so they can only be used to buy in-game appearances.
The game's last major update was an update released on April 29, 2020[11] when DICE thought the current state of the game at the time was greatly improved compared to launch,[12] with a final minor update released on August 26, 2020, which fixed minor bugs.[13]

Freezing and stuttering on Windows 10

Use DirectX 11[citation needed] |

Stuttering issues
Instruction[22] |
---|
While this fix is intended for Battlefield 1 and V, this fix may work for Battlefront II as it also uses heavy caching to load maps and characters[citation needed]. Once the free memory is exhausted, performance takes a big hit - games with heavy caching like BF1 suffer horribly. The only way to fix it previously was restarting the computer (thus clearing the memory), which explains why it was only happening after a while and not on a fresh boot.

Unable to move mouse in Main Menu
Disable Discord Overlay[citation needed] |

|
White artifacting on shiny surfaces with AMD Graphics Cards
Set Post Process Quality to Low[citation needed] |
---|
|
Long loading times
Limit FPS[citation needed] |
---|
|
Excessive Bloom/HDR brightness issues
Disable full-screen optimisation[citation needed] |
---|
|
Lost connection to the EA servers (error 721) on launch
Reconnect to the servers (click "CONNECT" next to social bar, denoted with your Origin profile picture) until you are able to connect. This is a known issue on PC and this fix should take multiple tries until it lets you in.[23] If you have the Celebration Edition, do not go to Collections as it will reset the chosen skin (tied to the issue where Celebration Edition content is only available when connected to the servers).[14] |

VR support
3D modes | State | Notes | |

Technical specs | Supported | Notes |
---|---|---|
Direct3D | 11, 12 |
Executable | 32-bit | 64-bit | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Windows |
- DirectX 11 is required for the Nvidia 3D Vision mod (see above).
- Since an August 2019 update, DirectX 12 implementation in the game is broken and can actually lead to worse performance than on DX11.[24]
Middleware
Console commands
- Launch console with ~.
- You can have these commands run automatically whenever you start the game by entering them in
user.cfg
in the Battlefront II installation folder (the file won't exist by default, you can create it through a Notepad and save as a .cfg file).[27]
Command | Description |
---|---|
PerfOverlay.DrawFPS 1 | Show FPS counter |
PerfOverlay.DrawGraph 1 | Show performance graph |
GameTime.MaxVariableFPS # | Limit frame rate (where # is a positive number) / '0' unlocks framerate beyond 200FPS
|
RenderDevice.TripleBufferingEnable 1 | Enable Triple-Buffering (only recommended if Vsync is on) |
RenderDevice.ForceRenderAheadLimit 1 | Force rendering only 1 frame ahead (can remove stutter, default value is 3) |
Screenshot.Render | Take a screenshot (into %USERPROFILE%\Documents\STAR WARS Battlefront II\Screenshots\ )
|
Mods
- Relatively large modding community with wide variety of mods ranging from character swaps and cosmetic improvements, both for characters and environments, to even granting access to the pre-order skins (should you not have them) and bringing new modes to the offline Instant Action mode.
- While considered to be safe, playing online with mods of any kind, even cosmetic mods, poses a risk of being banned. Mods that are not multiplayer-safe will be listed in the mod's page; do not use these mods online as they will definitely get you banned. Also, beware of outdated mods that change things like visual effects. It is best to obtain updated mods that are guaranteed working with the newest version of the game.
- All mods are available from NexusMods and require Frosty Mod Manager (some mods require the Alpha version of Frosty).
Battlefront II has multiple mods that improve or change the game experience.
Pre-order skins
- Unlocks the pre-order skins if you don't have them, replacing Rey's Scavenger and Kylo Ren's Scarred.
- Last tested just after the Scarif patch and it is not known if it is safe with the August patch or not.
UI improvements
SmallerHUD
- Adds a smaller UI, options to scale the UI and turn off more HUD features.
Aviator's Galactic Spawn Screens/No Holograms Remastered
- Overhauls the spawn screens.
GameModeInfo and Improved Starcard Layouts
- In addition to showing more info on the spawn screen, it improves on and unlocks the unfinished Star Card Loadouts feature.
Gameplay improvements
Soundtrack Replacement Suite
- Replaces the default in-game music with a collection of music taken from all kinds of Star Wars media.
Related to Instant Action
- Expands the Instant Action mode in many ways.
- Do not play online with them enabled as they will get you banned.
Instant Action Improvements
- Brand-new reinforcements, appearances and general improvements.
Instant Action Tweaks
- AI overhaul, cross-era heroes and more general improvements.
- Excludes the new reinforcements, though can be downloaded separately.
Instant Action Overhaul
- An overhaul to the Instant Action mode, including new game modes, cross-era heroes and an overhaul to the game's implementation of AI.
- Excludes the new reinforcements, though can be downloaded separately.
- Requires Frosty Alpha.
