Back on Tuesday, Xbox and EA treated us to a surprise in the form of Battlefield 1 Revolution at a 100% discount, meaning anyone with an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (or EA Play) membership could claim the game for free.
At the time, we mentioned that more games could follow before the promotion wraps up on December 26th, and the second has arrived today! For all of Thursday, EA is giving away Star Wars Battlefront 2 for free on Xbox consoles.
This is also the "Celebration Edition" of the game, which includes a whole bunch of in-game goodies.
You probably remember all the controversy that surrounded Battlefront 2 back at launch in 2017 (it was all to do with lootboxes), but the game was massively turned around in the years that followed, and almost a decade later it remains a fantastic multiplayer experience. There's a proper single-player campaign that's well worth checking out too.
Hopefully this isn't the end of the free games from EA, as Titanfall 2: Ultimate Edition seems to have been teased as well... that's another one that you should definitely add to your library. We'll let you know if it becomes available!
