Star Wars fever is still present! And while some people have yet to see the movie, many of them enjoy the Star Wars phenomenon by using branded merchandise, or even by playing one of the most popular same-name games ever – Star Wars Battlefront 2.
Battlefront 2 was released in 2005, and Microsoft released a couple of Windows OS versions since then. As a result, some compatibility issues might arise.
So in this article, we’re going to talk about getting Star Wars Battlefront 2 to work in Windows 10.

If there is an exclamation mark next to particular drivers, right-click on the respective drivers and select Update.
We also strongly recommend dedicated third-party driver update tools, such as PC HelpSoft Driver Updater, to automatically download all the outdated drivers on your PC.
This is optimal since it will periodically scan for updates and will keep your system healthy and safe, as you can manually download and install the wrong driver version.
Once you install the tool, you only have to hit the Scan button and allow it to go through the entire system. By the end of the process, you’ll know exactly what drivers need updating, as well as available options.
