It doesn’t take long for the winds to change in the games industry.
One minute, Star Wars Outlaws is the talk of the town.
The next, it’s Concord, Astro Bot, a ridiculously priced PlayStation 5 Pro … There’s always a new talking point lurking around the corner.

I want to circle back to Star Wars Outlaws though.
While I’m personally actually quite enjoying my time with the game, so too do I realise that it’s not the mass critically-acclaimed success Ubisoft was perhaps hoping for.
Well, I’d like to use this as an opportunity to remind you what a stellar little series Star Wars: Battlefront is.
It was back in 2017 that the last entry landed, with Star Wars Battlefront II but with EA now solely focused on the sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, it’s pretty unlikely we’ll see a follow-up.

That’s somewhat okay though because naturally, fans have taken matters into their own hands.
Unfortunately, it’s playable for PC users only but Star Wars Battlefront II: Order and Peace is a wonderful conversion mod that infuses the game with a new lease of life.
Yet to try Star Wars Outlaws? Take a look at the game in action below.
Created by ModDB user Grand_Max, Star Wars Battlefront II: Order and Peace focuses on the final years of the Galactic Republic, phasing into the rise of the Empire.

It combines elements from both the Legends and Canon timelines, with the mod last updated just last month.
In the latest update, Commander Keller and Clone Snowtroopers were added whilst snowy planets were made the focus of graphical improvements.
The ‘Fall of the Republic’ and ‘Dark Times’ eras were added as options on Hoth plus the use of AT-ATs was made available in both of those eras.
And that’s simply scratching the surface of what’s on offer in Star Wars Battlefront II: Order and Peace.

Boasting additional characters, locations, droids and more, there’s plenty included here for even the most well-versed of Battlefront II players to discover something new.
It’s available to download for free now on ModDB.
