Star Wars: Battlefront 2 Reached 19 Million Players From Epic Games Store Freebie

The Battlefront 2 freebie on the Epic Games Store was a huge success for EA's sci-fi shooter.

The current version should have been the launch day version and it would have been one of the better games of that year.

Back when the game first released I was saying its actually a great game aside from horrible progression system that was designed for players to spend money on lootboxes. And granted, at launch they removed the ability to spend money, but they didn't change the progression system for a very long time after that.

But the gameplay was always really fun. The game should have released with the current progression system, and the only DLC should have been the new trilogy content.

And how many of them actually downloaded the game and even played it?

It's a damn good game now, and has been for some time.

It may have launched in a bad state, but they more than made up for it with the free DLC etc.
