The Original Star Wars Battlefront 2 now has Multiplayer Again

Disney made a surprising move this Monday by updating the classic Star Wars Battlefront 2 to enable multiplayer once more. 

The game is now registered on Steam under the name Star Wars Battlefront 2 (Classic, 2005) in an effort for the game not to be mixed with the soon to be launched Star Wars Battlefront 2. 



Along with a name change was an update that reinstates multiplayer, a feature that's been missing from Battlefront 2 for quite a while now. The announcement came in the form of a Steam discussion post that reads:

Star Wars fans rejoice! Multiplayer support has returned for Battlefront II. Now you can draft your friends to the 501st legion and join up to 64 other players in a heated online battle for control of the galaxy.

The post has over 6,000 up votes and near 4,000 comments.

Some if not most people have been having trouble with getting the multiplayer. Constant time outs and connection errors are ruining players experiences.

It's unclear whether Disney will continue to update the original Battlefront 2 however if you want to experience a taste of the new sequel you can play the open beta until the 9th here.
