At last month’s E3, EA Games revealed a new Star Wars game and also the brand new Clone Wars-era content coming to Star Wars Battlefront II — a couple of days ago on their Twitter feed, EA gave us more details of the Clone Wars content and how it will arrive during the remainder of 2018.

Here’s a summary of the announcement from PC Gamer: –
Both Anakin Skywalker and Count Dooku will come to the game in the winter, as will the new location Geonosis, where the Clone Wars began.
Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and the many-armed General Grievous will arrive in the autumn alongside an updated squad system and a “new large-scale mode”, which is presumably the sandbox-style mode announced at E3 that puts the focus on capturing command posts and attacking and destroying capital ships.
Some Clone Wars content will be added in both July and August, as you can see from the full roadmap below. A new four-on-four PvP ship combat mode is up first, and will arrive next month alongside a number of gameplay changes, such as being able to turn your lightsaber on and off at will. Clone trooper appearances, new emotes and victory poses are due in August.
We expect more news later this week!
