Another free game appeared on Epic Games Store. As previously announced, this is Star Wars: Battlefront II Celebration Edition. Those interested in getting the title have a chance to add it to their accounts until January 21, at 8:00 AM PT. At the same time another free title was revealed. It will be Galactic Civilizations III.
Star Wars: Battlefront II is a multiplayer-focused FPS/TPS set in the Star Wars universe. The title met with huge criticism shortly after launch, resulting from the invasive microtransaction system. This translated into a moderately warm reception - on Metacritic the average rating for the PC version is only 65%. Over time, however, EA withdrew from the aggressive lootbox system, introducing the ability to purchase only cosmetic objects.
It is worth remembering that recently there has been a lot of commotion related to Star Wars games. A few days ago, information appeared that may suggest that Star Wars: Battlefront 3 is in development. Additionally, Disney decided to resurrect Lucasfilm Games. It was also announced that Ubisoft is working on a game set in this universe. As a result, EA has lost its monopoly on publishing licensed Star Wars games.
