This appears to be regular server maintenance so don’t expect to boot the game up and find a new update crammed with content.
DICE only just launched its Age of Rebellion update for Battlefront II, released on February 26th. This chunky new content drop added a slew of co-op maps as well as two new playable reinforcements including the Ewok Hunter and ISB Agent.
There’s currently a double XP in game event running right now and it is going to go on for quite a while, lasting until the end of the month on March 27th. If you do not feel that is long enough then do not worry as straight afterwards there will be a triple XP weekend.
That gives players plenty of opportunity to level up the various classes and reinforcements, effortlessly climbing the ranks. If you’re looking for the most efficient way of XP farming then make sure you check out our handy guide.
