Star Wars Battlefront 3 was originally a sad tale of a franchise almost seeing a well-deserved sequel, only to be shut down just shy of a full release. However, near the end of May this year, following the Lucas Arts closure, EA was kind enough to promote it back to optimistically-rumored status. And now, during EA’s E3 conference, Star Wars: Battlefront was officially confirmed to be making its long-awaited return and on next-gen systems to boot.
Evidently, the game is still in extreme infancy, as we saw very little of the next Battlefront . However, EA has kept true on their promise, and has firmly demonstrated that they have no intention of letting their newly-acquired Star Wars IPs slip through their fingers, which bodes well for a few heretofore presumed-dead franchises as well.
Plus, they’re finally winning points back after the SimCity fiasco, which is a good thing.
