Star Wars Battlefront 2 will fly in next year

I really enjoy playing Star Wars Battlefront, sure it has a few faults (like the DLC not downloading on the PS4. Grrr, I will get that sorted), but on the whole it is a good game to whack on and fight other people in a galaxy far, far away.

The current game only features characters from the original films, but EA have confirmed that there is a sequel heading our way.

EA CFO Blake Jorgensen said during an earnings call that Battlefront 2 will have “bigger and better worlds” and use content from “the new movies.” Hopefully, we will also get some space battles.

I would also love for them to do a Battlefront based on the Clone Wars series. That seems ripe to be turned into this type of game.

What would you like to see in Battlefront 2?

Jorgensen said EA plans to release one new Star Wars game every year for the next three to four years. The Battlefront sequel will come out “next year.” It is not clear if that means calendar year 2017 or EA’s next fiscal year. Fiscal year 2017 just started on April 1.

There is also a Star Wars action game from Dead Space studio Visceral and Motive, while Titanfall developer Respawn are making a third-person action-adventure Star Wars game.
