Content Update: Conquest Mode, Capital Ships & Proximity Chat Fixed

Edited: 12/10/25 00:13 - Corrected several update notes.

CONTENT UPDATE

This update transforms SUPREMACY into CONQUEST– the large-scale mode inspired by Battlefield and the original Battlefront titles. It brings back capital ships, faster matches, and a refreshed strategic flow.

GALACTIC ASSAULT and CONQUEST have been separated into two unique rotations, both of which are available to play on separate servers via the SERVER BROWSER.

Proximity Chat should now be available again. Further tweaks to proximity chat will follow in a future update.
Additionally, we've heard your requests for a push-to-talk option. We'll share more about that in our next Development Update.

Please join us in thanking the amazing Battlefront Plus team for their dedication to Battlefront.

Battlefront Plus - Beta 101 - Update Notes

CONQUEST RETURNS TO BATTLEFRONT

• Supremacy reworked into Conquest, using a ticket-based system instead of percentages. Kills and captured posts deplete enemy tickets; more posts = faster drain.
• Majority capture rate decides control speed (e.g. 9 Clones vs 3 Droids = rate of 6).
• Capturing all posts triggers Overtime - the losing team has 60 seconds to reclaim a post or lose.
• Auto-captured posts: Two per team at round start (Prequel/Sequel) for faster variety.
• Capital ships return as limited “lives.” Losing on the ground sends your team to defend your ship once.
  • Win by either destroying the enemy ship after a ground win, or by winning two ground phases.

NEW MODES & CONTENT

• Autoplayers are now supported on all Galactic Assault maps.
• Added Conquest XL (cross-era heroes).
• Added Galactic Assault (era-locked heroes).
• Cross-era GA renamed Galactic Assault XL.
