EA has just rolled out some exciting news for Xbox fans: the Celebration Edition of Star Wars Battlefront II is up for grabs at no cost, but there’s a catch—this offer is fleeting. If you’re on Game Pass Ultimate or have an EA Play subscription, this is your shot to snag a free copy of this thrilling shooter and dive headfirst into unlocking those Star Wars Battlefront II achievements.
So what’s in store for members of Game Pass Ultimate and EA Play? Star Wars Battlefront II: Celebration Edition is what’s on the menu, fully loaded with a treasure trove of cosmetics, emotes, voice lines, and victory poses. But remember, this generous offer is ticking down to just a single day, so act fast if you want to secure it for your Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One.
Right now, the EA Play Holiday Countdown is serving up goodies, and this announcement follows on the heels of Battlefield 1 and its DLC becoming temporarily available for free. Just as with Battlefield 1, you can spot this offer for Star Wars Battlefront II as a ‘Just for You’ deal directly on the Xbox store.
This Celebration Edition bundles the base game with more than 350 cosmetic and customization goodies that would usually require tons of grinding to acquire—all unlocked from the get-go. While there’s no extra premium content included, this version does save you plenty of time in sprucing up your gameplay aesthetics. And who doesn’t love a good time saver, especially when it doesn’t cost a penny?
Star Wars Battlefront II’s reputation rides mainly on its extensive multiplayer component, featuring maps and characters that cut across the Star Wars saga’s various eras. However, the game also offers a brief, yet engaging, single-player campaign that pulls you deep into the rich fabric of the Star Wars universe—definitely a must-play if you haven’t experienced it yet.
If you’re eyeing those Star Wars Battlefront II achievements, be prepared to invest between 60 to 80 hours to capture the full 1,045 Gamerscore. While a significant share of these points can be achieved through the single-player campaign, the lion’s share is rooted in the multiplayer action.
