Do you need a multiplayer internet connection or Playstation + for star wars battlefront 2?

I thought about whether it would be possible to play multiplayer in star wars battlefront 2 without PS +. I have Battlefront 1 and I need PS + there for something like that. That's why I can only play to a limited extent there and that's a bit of a shame. Is it the same with part 2 or different?

Is also a plus you need for everything that is not Free to Play (the only exception here is Final Fantasy 14)
