Star Wars Battlefront II updated its online record on Steam several times amid a 90% discount

The number of concurrent players was almost 36 thousand.

Online Star Wars Battlefront II on Steam began to increase sharply after June 19, when the sale of EA games started on the platform: for example, the multiplayer shooter received a 90% discount.

Over the past few days, the game has updated its online record on Steam several times and on the evening of June 22 reached 35,892 players.

Before the sale, the best result for the shooter on Steam was recorded on May 26 - 18,635 concurrent players. EA, DICE or Disney have no plans for the next Star Wars Battlefront title yet. The publisher's next game in the franchise will be the tactical Star Wars Zero Company, which will be released in 2026.

The sale of EA games on Steam will end only on July 10, so you probably shouldn’t expect any new offers from the publisher in the coming days.

A new comic book series has introduced a new character to replace Kylo Ren as the leader of the Knights. TheStar Wars: Legacy of Vaderline has been released since February, showing events up to the ninth episode.

Kathleen Kennedy showed unedited Star Wars - Han Solo shot first

Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy showed the "first attempt" of the 1977 Star Wars film, which was surrounded by myths. One of its most famous features is the scene with Han Solo.

This copy, which was considered lost for decades, was presented at the BFI Film on Film Festival in the UK. It turned out that a copy of the very first film was kept in the archives of the BFI (British Film Institute), which found a version and approached Lucasfilm to organize a screening. BFI chief executive Ben Roberts called the discovery a "miracle", particularly as its condition allowed for public display.

The appearance of Kathleen Kennedy at the film festival was unexpected, confirming the originality of the version. According to her, most likely there is no other very first copy.
