In Star Wars Battlefront 2, you'll have the opportunity to play as many of your favorite characters from around the galaxy—from Darth Maul to Anakin Skywalker, and many more.
In general, characters are free to play upon launching Battlefront 2. However, players can only unlock new characters by spending Battle Points, an in-game currency acquired simply by playing the game.
Players will gradually accrue Battle Points for in-game actions, like:
- Killing enemy players
- Completing in-game objectives
- Claiming a position point for your team.
According to Kotaku, EA decided to install a new patch in 2018 that fully unlocked all heroes and villains for online play using the Battle Points system.
In the game's early 2017 launch, however, players were forced to acquire a currency called Credits. After accruing Credits, players needed to return to the main menu, and click on the Collection tab up top. After clicking the Collection tab, players could purchase new characters using Credits. Fortunately, EA heard fan criticism and reverted the decision to lock new characters behind a paywall.
To review: All characters, ships, and droids are free for game use so long as players have earned the required amount of Battle Points while playing the game and completing objectives.
