Could a Star Wars: Battlefront Novel Be in the works?

The new paperback version of A New Dawn is on the verge of publication and it features a official timeline. This timeline gives you information about different types of media surrounding the Star Wars saga. There is an interesting note in this that shows a new novel is in development in addition to Aftermath and Dark Disciple. Many will think that the Battlefront title is only referring to the upcoming video game, you should know that television shows are only listed as television shows and movies are listed separately. Based on these terms, a conclusion has been drawn that a video game should be listed under its own separate banner as well, but this is not labeled as such. There is no definite answer yet, but we think a new novel is sure to come.

‘Star Wars: Battlefront’ 5 Features Fans Want Most: 2015 Release Date, Gameplay, Story, DLC And More

As many of you know,  Star Wars: Battlefront  was confirmed to be showcased at Star Wars Celebration on  between April 16th and 19th of this year by EA and DICE. Fans don’t have very much information at all about Star Wars: Battlefront but let’s go over some aspects the game needs to have to really wow the crowd. The Star Wars: Battlefront legacy is notorious for being a first person shooter style game and nothing else. Many longtime players will remember that both “Battlefield” games did offer players a choice between first and third person shooters. Many fans enjoy the option of this style of gameplay, so we think creators definitely need to include this in the game. Fans of Star Wars: Battlefront typically love the multiplayer gameplay but we think creators need to focus on a more expansive story line as well. There have been a few rumors that suggests a…

Star Wars: Battlefront Just a Month Away

Star Wars fans only have about a month to wait for the unveiling of Star Wars: Battlefront, quite possibly the most hotly anticipated Star Wars gaming title ever. While they will not be able to get their hands on the game just yet (the title is set for a December 2015 release), they will probably be able to feast their thirsty eyes on some in-game action and the hype-machine will be fed some new crumbs of information/details to keep its gears turning. Officially announced at last year’s E3, Star Wars: Battlefront has already offered a precious few glimpses into the virtual world that EA is hoping will lure scores and scores of players to the title, and everyone was quite impressed with what they saw. Starting April 16 though, at the Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, CA, fans are likely to see a different beast, with close to a year’s…

Battlefront to Debut at Star Wars Celebration

The celebration for Star Wars this year is sure to be awesome because almost every big name featured in Star Wars will be there. A few in attendance will be Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and J.J. Abrams. EA Just confirmed that details and footage for Star Wars: Battlefront will debut during the Star Wars convention in Anaheim, California. The dates are set for April 16-19 and we are hoping to see some type of large announcement at the convention. It could relate to a certain video game by EA that features Star Wars and is set for release later this year! Obviously, we are talking about EA’s Star Wars: Battlefront. An incredible amount of people are anticipating this game but we still have not seen any gameplay footage, and it’s quite frustrating. However, we are crossing our fingers that this will all change after the Star Wars convention in April. It…

‘Star Wars Battlefront 3’ Release Date Schedule Right On Track As EA DICE Promises ‘Great Variety’ Of Multiplayer Gameplay

EA DICE game designer, Niklas Fergraeus, is telling fans that a wide range of variety will be incorporated into multiplayer gameplay maps for Star Wars: Battlefront. The game has been reported to be on track with development. “We have actually made the decision to specifically tailor certain maps to certain game modes, and what we get from that is not only incredibly varied scales, but also gameplay that will allow players to live out some of their most memorable ‘Star Wars’ battle fantasies,” he mentioned during a recent interview with IGN. However, with the talent we have here at DICE, the Frostbite technology at our fingertips, and the fantastic working relationship we have with Lucas, I believe we will deliver a Star Wars experience that excites fans around the world and gives them the chance to play out battles in some of the most iconic locales in the series history….

Does ‘Battlefield Hardline’ Resolution Bode Ill For ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’?

After a showing of the new Star Wars: Battlefront game was held behind closed doors during the Game Developers Conference, fans are anxiously waiting to see a sneak peak too. However, some are worried that the release of Battlefield: Hardline will put a damper on enthusiasm. Battlefield: Hardline will is using the same engine and is running at sub-1080p resolution on the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4. Could this possibly spoil Star Wars: Battlefront’s design and graphics? The beta for Battlefield: Hardline was supposedly running at 900p on the PlayStation 4 and 720p on the Xbox One. Some have suspected that it would be running at the same resolution rate as Battlefield 4. The developer for the game, Visceral Games, has officially confirmed this after they tweeted on Sunday. Battlefield: Hardline is running at 60 frames per second on both gaming platforms and this is considered the standard for…

Behind-closed-doors footage of Star Wars Battlefront gets “standing ovation” at GDC

Many fans around the world are expecting something fresh and new with DICE’s new Star Wars: Battlefront, which is set to release late in the year. The game will be in big competition with the Call of Duty series and their new game to be released later in the year as well. After fans of the Battlefield series ranted about Battlefield 4 being a major let-down, the franchise is taking time to create something better. With Hardline set to release in a few weeks, the pressure building on Star Wars: Battlefront to perform during the holiday season is rising. Besides a few concept images and the developer talking about the game reenacting some of the most famous battles in the Star Wars universe, we have not seen very much. However, this could be changing soon. Footage from Star Wars: Battlefront has been shown to retail reps at a private event…

Battlefront Footage Shown to Retailers Behind Closed Doors…Oh, Come on!

For the commoner, the last (and first) glimpse at actual Star Wars: Battlefront in-game footage came at the 2014 E3. Since then, while the team behind the project was obviously busy churning out content, not much else saw the light of day about the game, save for some rumors here and there, just enough to keep the hype-machine chugging along. A few days ago though, a select few were granted the privilege to take in some Battlefront magic, as retailers were finally shown some game-play, and fortunately for the community, at one of these events organized for GameStop, EA COO Peter Moore decided to fire out a few rousing tweets. According to him, the audience gave a “superb ovation” to the footage shown, which is pretty much what happened back at the E3 last year too. Having said that much though, Moore didn’t bother providing any other details, leaving the…

More speculation on the Star Wars battlefront release date

The new upcoming Star Wars: Battlefront has been confirmed for release in winter of 2015 for PlayStation 4 consoles. There is still no specific date for the third installment of the Battlefront game series. However, we do know that the game’s release is set to coincide with the release of the new Star Wars movie.

During the Electronic Entertainment Expo in 2014, an official teaser style trailer was released for the game. This trailer showed the public a…

Star Wars Battlefront 3: Carrying Over Battlefield Community Features, Respawn On Board?

There is a new video regarding Star Wars: Battlefront, courtesy of Star Wars HQ, and you can subscribe to them on YouTube here. DICE’s sister company, Respawn, has announced that they have split the team up. The larger team is continuing their work on Titanfall, and the smaller team, which is headed by Stig Asmussen, is working on an unannounced project. Most people think the smaller team could be working on Battlefront, more specifically, its online system. Titanfall has been criticized for its matchmaking, but it has not went offline since its launch. The Community Test Environment has been setup for Battlefield’s premium subscribers as a privilege. These subscribers have the ability to try out new weapons, maps, and more. The Community Map Project is quite similar to this. DICE has encouraged fans to give them maps from scratch and this time they want an emphasis to be on fan…

Star Wars Battlefront: Stunning Endor Concept Art Revealed

IGN has revealed some new concept art for upcoming game by DICE: Star Wars Battlefront. IGN also goes on to provide the following details on the game: DICE remains close-guarded with gameplay specifics, but speaking with IGN, Star Wars Battlefront Design Director Niklas Fegraeus explained a bit more of what’s to come when the first-person shooter arrives this fall. “The scale of our maps and modes offer a great variety” depending on the location, Fegraeus explained. Hoth, where the Rebel Alliance fought off invading AT-ATs in snowy plains, will differ in size than the dense woodland of Endor. “We have actually made the decision to specifically tailor certain maps to certain game modes,” Fegraeus continued, “and what we get from that is not only incredibly varied scales, but also gameplay that will allow players to live out some of their most memorable Star Wars battle fantasies.”

Star Wars: Battlefront To Be A “Very Large Activity” For Electronic Arts this year

During EA’s third quarter earnings call yesterday, CFO Blake Jorgensen answered questions about Star Wars: Battlefront. Once again it was confirmed that the shooter is due to launch before Christmas 2015. More specifically, the game aims to be “aligned with” Star Wars Episode VII — The Force Awakens, which arrives on December 18. It was also mentioned that DICE will share more about the project in the coming months. Battlefront’s launch this year will be a “very large activity” for EA overall, on level with the company’s blockbuster Battlefield series. “We’re extremely excited about that,” Jorgensen said about Battlefront. “We think there’s huge potential for that title.

Star Wars Battlefront: Is THIS How Heroes Work?!

By now we all know that Star Wars: Battlefront does not have an official release date as of yet, but the people at EA and DICE are working hard on the game right now. When it comes to first person shooter games there have been many changes in the gaming industry. The question is do you think Star Wars: Battlefront  will take on the form of Titanfall for the heroes? If DICE did follow the way Titanfall works each player will have an opportunity to play as a hero since the game is set on a timer. This would make it fair for every player in the game, but there are different ways DICE could make the game work. A player could become the hero once they have enough points, just like it works in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and their killstreak formula. However, this can make it where…

Star Wars Battlefront Sticks To First Person Gameplay?

Fans are becoming desperate to learn more about Star Wars: Battlefront and since EA is holding off on giving an official release date, everyone is crossing their fingers that it will at least have a date for E3. EA has not stated too much about the game and one area that has become a controversial topic is whether or not it will have the ability to play in 3rd person. What EA has stated thus far has made everyone nervous. They said that they will have at least one major FPS per year, starting with Star Wars: Battlefront this year and Battlefield 5 next year. This could be their way of non-officially stating that the game will be solely FPS style. One thing we can all agree on is if they make it FPS with no third person perspective ability in the game, fans are going to be VERY upset….

Star Wars: Battlefront 3 Video Reveals Possible Features?

There has been much speculation and controversy about Star Wars: Battlefront  because there has not been any solid information about the game except that it’s due to release late this year.

Star Wars Battlefront has Zombie Death Troopers? Here are the Changes We Want

With the latest news and rumors about Star Wars: Battlefront comes many hopes and expectations. With the game being set to release sometime late this year many are praying that there are some major improvements and additions to the series. Campaign Style: Take it to the next level Many players want the new Star Wars installment to have more focus on the campaign mode. Many players enjoy multiplayer shootouts, but for those who enjoy the story and “mission” style, we think EA should focus more on the story portion of the game. It seems that gaming developers are starting to slack on the campaign modes and are focusing more on the online multiplayer experience. This is all great, but there are many people out there who want to play single style; solo. Hopefully, EA will put enough focus on both parts of the game for the sake of every type…

Kotaku confirmed that EA was in development of an open world style game set in the Star Wars universe, but there are no details about what the game will include. We think that it will not be another…

Star Wars Battlefront business forecasts

The upcoming first person shooter Star Wars: Battlefront is predicted to be a huge seller for EA Games and the Star Wars franchise. With the release of Star Wars Episode VII during the New Year, it should help raise the popularity of the new game even more. Taking a look back to 2005 when the first Battlefront game was released it was a hit amongst many and rated 6th in overall sales, according to NPD. The new Battlefront game should be much better in comparison to the 2005 version with the new updated technology we have now. It will most likely be appealing to casual gamers and hardcore gamers alike, making the number of potential sales to rise even more. It could surpass the sale of other major first person shooters, such as Battlefield 4 and Destiny, which will release this year. Seeking Alpha has some insight on how they believe the…
