Star Wars Battlefront 2 On Xbox Scorpio Will Deliver An Experience Like Never Before, Says Microsoft’s Major Nelson

'Between EA Access and Project Scorpio, Xbox will be the best place to play your favorite Star Wars heroes.'

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 may be one of the most anticipated games of this year, and Sony may have advertising rights for it- but Microsoft isn’t going to let any opportunity to promote the Xbox version of the game pass, either. In this week’s ‘This Week on Xbox’ video, Xbox’s Larry Hryb Major Nelson gave an overview of why Xbox will be the best place to play Battlefront 2.

‘With Project Scorpio coming this Holiday, I can’t wait to experience the Star Wars galaxy like never before,’ he enthused, alluding to the fact that the game is far likelier to be better on the more powerful system. ‘If you are a member of EA Access, you will be able to start playing the game on November 9, before the game releases on November 17. Between EA Access and Project Scorpio, Xbox will be the best place to play your favorite Star Wars heroes.’

He’s probably right, actually- for a graphics intensive multiplayer shooter, Xbox Scorpio, which is powerful hardware and which is backed by Xbox Live (which, let’s face it, is far superior to PSN again at this point) is probably the better place to go to. The question is- will that alone be enough to make PlayStation owners want to make the switch?
