Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection storms consoles and PC today

Head back to the famed galaxy for a revisiting of two multiplayer (and solo) classics with the Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection.

Blast ’em!

Yes, it’s been a while since the name “Star Wars Battlefront” was used in regards to a new game release, and while we guess today’s launch isn’t exactly that, it’s still pretty cool. If you don’t know, Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection is a bundle of the first two games in the legendary series, with a few updates.

For one thing, fans can dive into 64 player online battles now, plus discover all of the “previously released” DLC, and “expansions to Hero Assault mode”.

Relive intense battles from across the STAR WARS galaxy in the STAR WARS: Battlefront Classic Collection. Jump into thrilling firefights across massive battlefields on the ground, in the air, and in space as the Empire, Rebellion, Republic, and Separatist Alliance. Choose from an array of unique classes, pilot a multitude of vehicles, and play as legendary heroes and villains from multiple eras of the saga in solo, local, and online play.
