No Battlefront 3 Coming Soon, Says Ex-DICE Developer

May 23, 2025 12:19 PM

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 has recently seen a surge in players, thanks to the May 4 celebrations and the success of the Star Wars series Andor. However, a former DICE developer has confirmed that fans shouldn't expect an announcement for Star Wars: Battlefront 3 anytime soon. Mats Holm, who worked on Battlefront 2's live operations, indicated that the majority of the original team has moved on to different companies. He expressed skepticism about DICE's capability to develop a sequel without the core team that revitalized the game's post-launch content. Instead, Holm suggested that a remaster of Battlefront 2 could be more feasible, with several improvements in mind, potentially leading to a faster development cycle for a future Battlefront 3.

Will there be a Battlefront 3 coming soon?

No, a Battlefront 3 announcement is unlikely in the near future due to a lack of the original development team at DICE. The focus seems to be on continuing support for Battlefield and possibly remastering Battlefront 2 instead.

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 was released in 2017, initially facing criticism for its progression system and microtransactions. Over time, the game received numerous updates that improved gameplay, reintroducing many players. The franchise has a rich history, capturing the essence of epic Star Wars battles, and any future releases could build on this legacy while aiming to enhance player experiences further.
