Gaming Did Major Nelson announce online multiplayer for the original Star Wars battelfront 2 on xbox?

As we all know, Microsoft has shut down the servers for the OG xbox games. Making it impossible to play online without the use of Xlink.

However, on the official xbox channel, Major Nelson has posted an announcement of Games With Gold titles for the new month. During the Star Wars Battlefront 2 segment, he mentioned that the players can enjoy "Multiple Online Game modes". You can check the link below to see the video for yourself. Unless this is some sort of mistake, or April fool's joke, this sounds like online multiplayer will be a thing for Star Wars Battelfront 2 on the xbox one. Maybe Disney will revive the servers for this game, maybe there are plans for other OG xbox games to get the same treatment. Who knows?

What OG xbox games would you like to play online again?
