Exciting New Improvements in Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection Update

Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection has rolled out its initial patch shortly after a rocky launch. This update for Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection includes a range of improvements for both games, focusing on adjustments to the newly introduced Heroes, Kit Fisto and Asajj Ventress.

The early days of Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection have posed challenges for developer Aspyr. The game faced criticism on Steam due to numerous issues on its debut. Many of these issues were not part of the original games, causing frustration among players. However, Aspyr has been quick to release the first patch, aiming to address major bugs gamers have encountered.

Aspyr disclosed the details of the initial Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection patch on their website, confirming its availability on PC. The patch is currently in the approval process for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo consoles. It brings significant fixes, notably resolving various crashes in different scenarios. Additionally, the update includes tweaks to the two new Heroes, Kit Fisto and Asajj Ventress, in the Hero Assault mode.

The patch encompasses a wide array of changes, marking a promising start in elevating Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection to meet launch expectations. However, one unresolved issue revolves around the potential use of a fan-made mod in the game. Despite Aspyr's denial, evidence from the modder suggests otherwise. It remains to be seen if this matter has been discreetly addressed through the update.

Within the patch notes, Aspyr has confirmed that preparations for Update 2 are already in progress. Although no specific timeline has been shared, it demonstrates Aspyr's commitment to optimizing Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection for players. Recent comparisons have showcased significant improvements in Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, indicating that with more stability in the future, the initial launch challenges will likely fade into obscurity for most players.
