Industry chatter is buzzing about the possibility of a new Star Wars Battlefront sequel. Fans of the series have been yearning for a return of the Battlefront series for years. A new sequel to Star Wars Battlefront is being discussed by Electronic Arts and Lucasfilm.
Lucasfilm seeks studio as Battlefront 2 sees Steam resurgence
The possibility of a third Battlefront game is in the works and could alter the way we look at Star Wars multiplayer games going forward. This is important because it means that EA sees some commercial value in the Star Wars IP once again after so many years of being quiet.
There are strong indications in recent reports that two major studios are the likely contenders for developing the Star Wars Battlefront sequel. Electronic Gaming Monthly and VGC are reporting that both EA DICE and Bungie are showing interest in the development of the new title. EA DICE is the studio behind the previous Battlefront games while Bungie has experience making big multiplayer games for other big franchises.
Lucasfilm is actively looking for a studio to develop the new Battlefront sequel. Lucasfilm is said to be aggressively searching for the right studio for the next Battlefront installment. Lucasfilm searching for a development studio could mean that it is still in the early stages of planning. No official information has been confirmed at this point.
The talk of a new Star Wars Battlefront sequel comes after a surprising comeback of the 2017 game Star Wars Battlefront 2. The popularity of Star Wars Battlefront 2 on Steam has increased tremendously in 2025. This shows that there is still a desire for the game.
Former developers of the Battlefront series have also publicly shown interest in making a sequel. This feeds into speculation that a sequel is possible and that it is something that the original developers want.
