General Grievous, the feared Separatist Supreme Commander and deadly Jedi hunter, has arrived in Star Wars: Battlefront II today. Trained in Jedi arts by Count Dooku, General Grievous is a skilled warrior and brilliant strategist. His ability to wield up to four lightsabers, all of which were conquered from their previous owners, makes him both an intimidating and deadly fighter on the battlefront.

General Grievous, donning his "Jedi Hunter" appearance by default, costs 35,000 credits to purchase and is not available via crystals. An additional "Battle Damaged" appearance will be available as well for 20,000 credits or 500 credits. The video below highlights General Grievous's gameplay style and abilities within the game. As you'll see, he's been designed with a large body frame in order to instigate fear and he can wield up to four lightsabers, all of which have been modeled after their appearances in  Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith



Hunt for Jedi as General Grievous in Star Wars Battlefront II’s latest Clone Wars update, available now! Combat with four lightsabers, drop to an unsettling crawl, and overwhelm your opponents as the feared Separatist Supreme Commander.

General Grievous was a relentless leader during the Clone Wars, leading droid armies in battles across the galaxy against the Galactic Republic. His numerous clashes with General Obi-Wan Kenobi formed an arch nemesis relation to the Jedi Master, which is fitting since Obi-Wan Kenobi will be the next hero to arrive in Star Wars: Battlefront II.

November's Battle of Geonosis Update is slated to arrive on November 28 and introduce Obi-Wan Kenobi and the planet of Geonosis to Galactic Assault. It will also bring another to-be-announced General Grievous appearance. Star Wars: Battlefront II 's November update will be the last of 2018, with more new content on the way as early as January 2019.

You see your boys been cast in the new Twilight Zone series. Doing a take on the classic “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet.”

@guyatadesk - Rambling Rose is a movie from 1991 where she fools around with a very very young Lucas Haas on camera. Creepy....

I really hate how you have to unlock characters in this game especially when they have alternate skins

Like I don’t mind having to unlock skins but having to unlock characters is such bullshit & ruins the fun for this game

Haven't switched it on for six months maybe. Such a shame.

To echo others: too little too late. It's a pity that such a nice looking game had to be butchered by EA.
