Star Wars Battlefront 2 has experienced a resurgence in popularity, reaching over 35,000 concurrent players on Steam years after its last update. The surge is attributed to the celebration of Star Wars Day, the 20th anniversary of Episode III's return to theaters, and various Star Wars-themed events. The community rallied to break previous player records, animated by both nostalgia and current events in the Star Wars universe, demonstrating the impact of the franchise and its loyal fanbase on the game's revival.
"While us devs are a bit scattered across the galaxy I am sure I can speak for all—it's a great feeling to see players of all ages rediscover the game, especially during such an exciting time for Star Wars."
"The renewed excitement shows how strong the Star Wars brand remains and how community-driven movements can revitalize interest in a game long abandoned by its developers."
