In an interview with Gamesindustry.biz, DICE?s very own Dennis Brännvall, Design Director on Star Wars Battlefront II, opened up about the game?s long journey in gaining back fans? trust. ?Not a week goes by without us thinking, ?Imagine if we hadn?t launched with loot boxes the way we did,'? Brännvall said. Star Wars Battlefront II came under fire due to loot boxes paired with the in-game cards that granted various buffs to each class when equipped.
Just 24 hours before the game launched, EA removed the controversial loot boxes from Star Wars Battlefront II. Looking at the game today, there is a premium currency, however, it only allows for the purchase of in-game cosmetic skins for various heroes and soldier classes. DICE made the promise early on that all of Star Wars Battlefront II?s future DLC would be free for all players, as they didn?t want to fragment the community like the first game. They?ve delivered on this promise as Star Wars Battlefront II is in a healthier place than ever with tons of new content and even more coming down the pipeline for Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker.
