Star Wars Battlefront II Confirms Final Credit Price for Upcoming Heroes

It was announced back at EAPlay that Star Wars Battlefront II will be bringing in new playable heroes Obi-Wan Kenobi and General Grievous, but a lot of people were skeptical as to how much the heroes would cost in once they were available. The good news is, they come fairly cheap, and you could probably unlock both of them by playing a solid number of hours in a week.

According to a Dev Post on Reddit:

Back at EA Play when we announced that Obi-Wan Kenobi, General Grievous, Anakin Skywalker and Count Dooku were set to arrive in Star Wars Battlefront II, one of the common questions we received revolved around their pricing.

Today, we can confirm that we are targeting a price of 35,000 Credits for each of the new heroes.

It's worth noting that 35,000 is the same price that was required to unlock Lando's version of the Millennium Falcon from the Solo season. It's actually a pretty cheap price, and the most expensive items in the game remain to be Legendary skins.

DICE also explains how they came up with that number:

We came to this price by using our in-game telemetry data to determine the speed in which players are earning credits, as well as the average amount of credits that each player has saved up. What this tells us is that for newcomers, or players with a credit balance of 0, it shouldn't take too long to earn the credits needed and for veteran players, you most likely have enough credits already or are very close to reaching that amount.

Though BF2 may not have had the best launch, the game is slowly starting to pick up steam as the improvements are being added. Shame is, some fans still aren't aware of the fixes that have been implemented and is still viewing the game as some EA cash cow.

Hopefully DICE has something planned to get everyone back on the Battlefront 2 boat. No Man's Sky launched a successful ad featuring their fixes; why can't Battlefront II?

Star Wars Battlefront II is now playable for Xbox One, PC, and PS4.
