  • Fixed an issue where text would have bad line breaks in the account sign-up flows.

  • Fixed several clipping issues that would occur during the campaign.
  • General stability and performance improvements.
  • Fixed several collisions issues.

While the patch itself has no relevance to Battlefront 2’s troublesome loot crate progression system, it did inadvertently cause a few problems shortly after release. Several players reported instances of lost Star Cards and levels after matches had finished, but that problem appears to have been resolved. The progress itself was not actually lost, but the items and numbers related to it simply didn’t show.

This 1.03 update is one of Battlefront 2’s biggest post-launch updates that doesn’t concern microtransactions. Its intent, of course, is to squash the initial bugs that were frustrating players. While not quite as fractured as Call Of Duty: WWII, many Battlefront 2 players have said the game feels unpolished. These fixes will hopefully ease that negative gameplay perception.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is available now on PS4, Xbox One and PC. This update should be live across all platforms.
