The August 26th Patch is a minor update for DICE's Star Wars Battlefront II.[1][2][3] The patch contains bug fixes, tweaks, and improvements to various elements introduced in the Battle on Scarif Update.[2][3] It is the final update to Battlefront II.[4]
Notable changes and fixes include:
- Change to General Grievous' Claw Rush ability that disallows it from hitting an opponent multiple times.
- Fixed an issue where Darth Vader's damage reduction can be built up; this would eventually make him invincible to most attacks.
- Fixed a bug with Darth Maul being unable to block after using Spin Attack.
Opening comments
Hello there,
We have a small patch for STAR WARS™ Battlefront II arriving this Wednesday. The focus on this patch is a small number of fixes for several issues that are affecting heroes.
Most notably of which, is the issue where it was possible to build up Darth Vader’s damage reduction traits. A fix has also been implemented which will stop General Grievous’ Claw Rush ability hitting more than expected within a short space of time. We have also fixed an issue that would cause Darth Maul to become unable to block, after performing a Spin Attack.
Stay safe, be excellent to each other, and we’ll see you on the battlefront.
May the Force be with you, always.
The Star Wars Battlefront II Team[1]
