Battlefront II design director Niklas Fegraeus confirmed the game will include microtransactions in an interview with GameSpot . You'll be able to progress and unlock content using earned in-game currency, but "if you want to accelerate that, if you can't play for a week, you can purchase that," Fegraeus explained."The important thing is everything can be earned [through gameplay]. If you're someone who spends time on the game, we love you, do your thing, do what you want to do. If you don't have the time, you can spend money and we love you as well. It's your choice," he added.Fegraeus also went on to note that the microtransactions won't create a pay-to-win system. "No, it's not about buying the winning item," he explained. "No one can say, 'I'm going to spend my zillion dollars and then I'm going to dominate.' That's not how it works."Yesterday, during EA Play, Electronic Arts announced that Star Wars Battlefront II will feature themed "seasons" as free content updates . The first of these seasons will be available in December and feature content based on The Last Jedi.You can pre-order the digital version of Star Wars Battlefront II now and secure early access to the Beta.
