Star Wars Battlefront II takes one Imperial-walker step forward with all-new space combat, playable Jedi, and never-before-seen environments straight out of the Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith film. Enjoy an all-new single-player experience that takes players through an epic, story-based saga where every action the player takes impacts the battlefront and, ultimately, the fate of the Star Wars galaxy.

Release Date: Q4 2005

The big addition is space combat. Perhaps now, finally, we can relive what I feel is one of the high-water marks of

It isn't often that galactic combat is truly displayed on an actually galactic level. Generally, a player involved in said galactic combat only participates in single battles, leaving the overall planning and strategy for the war effort as a detail taken care of behind the scenes.
