It's heartbreaking to see the state of the Battlefront series these days. (www.ign.com)

Between Battlefront 3 getting cancelled near the finish line, DICE abandoning BFII in favor of Battlefield 2042 (a misfire, to say the least), the Battlefront Collection launching in a piss poor state, and now the PC servers getting hacked (who knows if the same will happen on console), Battlefront is a truly cursed series.

The only positive is that EA no longer has exclusivity over Star Wars. which means Disney could have someone who actually cares make a BF3/spiritual successor.

after all, they'd probably want to emulate the success of Marvel Rivals with Star Wars

Every battlefield game older than the current one tends to be infested with hackers unfortunately. I was thinking about reinstalling BF1 but I don't really want to deal with it.

On the bright side, the new Battlefront is not particularly fun, so you aren't missing much. There really hasn't been a good Star Wars game in a decade or more...

Thank God for emulation, unofficial servers and mods, that kept the OG Battlefronts alive and allowed us to see near finished versions of the Free Radical Design's Battlefront III (the Wii version emulated through Dolphin seems to be the most complete build found so far).
