Summary
Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionhas released its first patch, just days after its controversial launch. The update toStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionbrings a host of fixes across both titles, including changes to the two new Heroes, Kit Fisto and Asajj Ventress.
The launch period ofStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionhas been tough for developer Aspyr. Right out of the gate,Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionwas review-bombedon Steam thanks to a multitude of problems on launch night. Many of these issues were not in the original games, leaving players extremely frustrated about the collection they had received. However, Aspyr has acted fast in getting out the first patch for the collection, which hopefully should alleviate a lot of the worst bugs gamers have been experiencing.
Details of the firstStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionpatch were revealed onAspyr’s site, confirming that the patch is live on PC, but is still in the submission and certification process for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo platforms. The update brings a bunch of important fixes to the game, including resolving a ton of crashes across various situations. In Hero Assault, the two newHeroes inStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, Kit Fisto and Asajj Ventress, have received a few changes of their own. Ventress' abilities have been re-balanced, while Fisto’s lightsaber will now animate as intended.
Overall, the patch brings an extensive list of changes, and it’s a solid start to bringingStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionup to the standard expected at launch. However, there’s one thing the patch doesn’t quite address. It recently emerged thatStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionmay still be using a fan-made mod, with proof provided by the modder despite Aspyr’s claims to the contrary. While this change isn’t featured in the official patch notes, it’ll be interesting to see whether the developer has quietly addressed this via the update.
As part of the patch notes, Aspyr did confirm that planning was already underway for Update 2. While no time frame was given, it does seem that Aspyr is dedicated to makingStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionthe best way to experience these iconic titles. Recentimage comparisons highlighted the hugeStar Wars: Battlefront Classic Collectionimprovements, so if the studio can make it a more stable experience in the near future, the launch period struggles will likely become a distant memory for most.
