Star Wars: Battlefront II May Finally Be Getting a Conquest Mode

3.8
While Star Wars: Battlefront II has seen its fair share of controversies, it’s also gotten a pretty stable audience of players, particularly on the multiplayer side of things. The developers at DICE is going all out to satisfy them – and that may include re-introducing a classic mode from its previous games to enjoy in its latest effort.

Design director Dennis Brannvall recently stopped by the Star Wars: Battlefront II forums to talk with fans about upcoming content for the game. Nothing major was confirmed during the discussion, but there was an interesting point that was brought up and explored – Conquest Mode.

Fans of Battlefield will be quite familiar with this mode, which works as an open-ended type of game, and it’s one that devotees truly recognize. Back in November, Criterion producer Pete Lake noted that the mode was a possibility, but it depended on community demand.

Apparently, the demand is there. When a fan by the name of HypergamerMk2 asked about the possible debut of the mode in Battlefront – or a variation of it, at the very least – Brannvall noted the team was looking into it.

Nothing was confirmed mind you, but he did say that DICE is “definitely working on satisfying that request,” and the developer is more than aware that fans want it.

In addition, Brannvall was asked about possible customization options for the game, which were once again confirmed but not given any sort of release date. An upcoming playlist based on The Clone Wars is also being worked on, but, again, not yet dated.

Finally, the progression system was discussed, as some fans were wondering if loot crates would be dropped entirely and the option to just buy content would be available. Brannvall simply noted, “We’re working on an overhaul of the progression system,” although EA has made it known in the past that it intends to bring back Microtransactions to the game, although it hasn’t given a time frame for that just yet.

We’ll have to see what happens over the next few months, but hell yes, we’ll take a Conquest mode. Make it happen.

Star Wars: Battlefront II is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Origin PC.

Craig Conquest was always my fav gamemode on BF games of recent years. So this is a must imo for a game of this size.


It was perfect and if it's baksnced it has huge potential. Sadly I do not own the 2nd.

That1kidv2 If you've played the original battlefronts, you'd know conquest was really fun. I haven't bought this one, and was dissapointed from the first one, so hopefully if they do add conquest I might have to buy it


I played it before, that's pretty much all I ever played. Was pretty cool. Not sure why it wasn't added at first.

Conquest was usually my go-to game mode back in battlefront. It also is my go-to game mode in battlefield but im really shocked to see it finally may get added, probably why a portion of the community didnt like this game was due to not having it.

I bought it because I thought it was going to be as fun as the first one.. I was dead wrong.

I am not really a fan of the Battlefront series. I couldn't see myself picking this up unless something drastic really changed. But, I am sure people who are fans will love this.

QTPosted:

Biwwy Not the biggest fan of this game.

So not really excited.

Hope people who play the game enjoy tho!


I liked the first one more. Played this a couple times and got annoyed...

Nothing is confirmed yet but the director of the game has hinted at it multiple times but also shot it down too
