We here at the site have been relatively pleased with Respawn Entertainment?s single player romp in the Star Wars universe when we saw it at a press event and when it was released to the general public. Since it?s release the team has added features and content free of charge bucking the nickel and diming trend that their parent company EA has been known for.
Today we received news that the team has released a patch which will focus on backwards compatibility on next generation consoles. A summary of which can be found on the following blog post which has been transcribed below.

- Improved framerate on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5
