Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection brings back the original games with multiplayer

During today's Nintendo Direct, we got another surprise Star Wars announcement, and it is one that is bound to make a lot of people happy. Aspyr is now releasing remasters for the original Star Wars: Battlefront games, complete with support for online multiplayer. 

The Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection is launching for PC, Xbox, PS5 and Switch on the 14th of March. The game will support up to 64-player online matches, so players can jump straight back in and relive the glory days prior to EA's Battlefront reboot series.

While the game will support modern resolutions don't expect a huge visual upgrade. It is still the old-school game complete with the older art and textures in place, but it will look sharper on modern displays.

The collection includes Battlefront 1 & 2, as well as bonus maps for both games and two new bonus heroes for Battlefront 2, including Asajj Ventress and Kit Fisto.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
