Over on Facebook, fans are uniting to ask the question on most people’s minds, will there be a Star Wars Battlefront III. With Disney taking over Lucas’ Empire, our guess is anything is possible.
Is Star Wars Battlefront 3 coming? Well, the correct answer is yes, no and maybe. It’s been six years since the second instalment, and fans are still waiting for confirmation of another sequel.
Game companies are not mature enough to handle this concept without turning it into a casino.
The remakes of battlefront should have been more simular to the originals. CoD/battlefield reskinned as Star Wars was not the anwser.
Someone has just revealed images proving that there was supposed to be a Star Wars Battlefront III for PSP.
Oh yea battlefront games were on the psp weren't they? And force unleashed as well. Great "handheld" versions those were.
Battlefront III in PSP is just Elite Squadron, was never cancelled. The start up menu is even the same same with X1 and X2.
Clever Star Wars fans have uncovered yet another piece of Free Radical's Star Wars: Battlefront 3, exploring the game's tutorial level.
After all these years, Free Radical's SWBF2 is still the best overall Star Wars game to me. It had everything you could want in big fun team battles, Jedi vs Sith and the space battles were extremely well done giving you the ability to land inside a capital ship's hangar to sabotage and take it down from within.
Free Radical didn’t make Star Wars Battlefront 2. The long defunct Pandemic Games developed the original Battlefront 2.
Thank you sir, I appreciate the correction. Pandemic also developed Mercenaries I believe, right? That game too is a classic!
I wish that IP would make a return. The original was better but its the second one had its moments. You could pretty much level anything in those games if you had the right armaments.
This is just Battlefront Elite Squadron. Cancelling it was the right move, very few changes to Battlefront 3 except for a new forgettable campaign.
well, i used to be positive i would never see another star wars film in my life time, and im not even a quarter century old. after disney bought lucasfilms i basically had to eat my words. so ruling out that battlefront 3 won't get made doesn't seem as valid a statement anymore. my prediction, lucasarts or disney higher ups now in charge of lucasarts might see the potential profit in making battlefront 3 next gen and decide to make it. if not next gen, then who knows.
I would love this.
Since Disney bought Marvel, they have done great things - the marvel universe has really come to light.
Now we should be on for the same thing with Star Wars.
New films, and a barrage of new games I'd imagine.
Looking forward to seeing how this all pans out.
I do I do! it has been far too long.
Definitely would be great. Just keep Mickey Mouse out of it please >_>
For the films the Disney take-over might be good, but I am not so sure about the games.
AFAIK there isn't going to be a major overhaul of the companies. At least for now.
The biggest problem has been LucasArts itself IMO. Very poor decisions led to horrible game after horrible game, with a few exceptions. It seemed as though LA's focus was milking the franchise rather than making or supporting good games.
My hope is the franchise leaving the prequel era. This alone gives me hope for good SW games.
