Star Wars Battlefront III Legacy Gets New Open Beta

While EA’s modern iteration of Star Wars Battlefront is closer to the Battlefield games – both developed by DICE – than the third-person tactical shooters that we got in the first two games in the series, fans have been hard at work creating their own alternative third game, inspired by footage of Free Radical’s abandoned Star Wars Battlefront III that emerged a couple of years ago. Star Wars Battlefield III Legacy aims to fill that void. A mod for Battlefront II, Legacy introduces ‘space to ground’ combat – a feature planned for the original third game – which allows players to move seamlessly between fighting soldier-to-soldier and jumping in a spacecraft to join a dogfight occurring above you.

The new open beta introduces the planet Cato Neimoidia, plus new classes, such as Droideka, General Grievous’ Magnaguards, and a mysterious Jedi known only as “The Legend”.

The developer says:

“Cato Neimoidia, new heroes and classes…A fixed HUD and a few more things. One step closer to the final version and still a large gap between this and the final release. It’s been time to update this beta due to delays and thing which came in between. The mod is still in development, more maps are planned to be made as well as a campaign. This brought me to decide: Let’s give you something more. You can now play as all available classes in Clone Wars, fight on two space to ground maps: Coruscant and Cato Neimoidia. Both support TDM, 1 flag, ctf and supremacy.

Cato Neimodia’s Supremacy mode can also be played online. Don’t expect this beta to be bug free. There are still bugs, some still from the first beta. Some new bugs sneaked in and some others were fixed.

It’s the same game at all. But better to be buggy now THAN in the final release, right? Still I tried my best to keep most of the game-breaking bugs out. Feel free to give feedback, constructive criticism, suggestions…or simply ask something you don’t know yet.”

To play the new Star Wars Battlefront III Legacy open beta you will need the PC version of Battlefront II. Battlefront III Legacy can then be downloaded from ModDB as an add-on for that game.
