    Why am I seeing so many remastered Star Wars games coming out? First Battlefront 1 & 2 and now this? I mean, I’m not mad and definitely excited. Just confused because I thought EA and Disney had exclusive rights when it came to the Star Wars games, or was I wrong?

    Also do Dark Forces 2 next that game is my jam.

      Higher profit on low investment + moderate returns, makes sense to ship them non stop. Higher investment projects could mean more profit but it also means higher risks.

      Iirc EA lost the exclusive game rights after Battlefront 2 (2017).

      That’s also why Ubisoft is making an open-world star wars game

        I hate EA as much as the next guy… But I think I’d rather have them make a Star Wars game over Ubisoft

      SW JK: DFII was my first online multiplayer experience. I remember the first map I found, was a big pit thing that had a castle like entrance at the bottom of the pit that I think turned into a casino. Great times trying to figure out how to play that on my dad’s work Sony Viao laptop with DSL.
