Star Wars Battlefront's Campaign Was Cut To Release the Game Alongside the Movie, Says EA

Star Wars Battlefront released without a proper single thespian entrada, every bit you already know if you read our review. Yet, Electronic Arts have at present revealed during yesterday's Investor Day that a witting decision was made to cut the campaign in order to allow Star Wars Battlefront to release alongside Star Wars: The Forcefulness Awakens (and utilise its huge traction).

Patrick Soderlund, Head Honcho of EA Studios, said:

Nosotros made [the choice] due to time and being able to launch the game side-by-side with the movie that came out to get the strongest possible touch.

Just last calendar week, it was confirmed by Electronic Arts that a new Star Wars Battlefront will release in late 2022, probably congruent again with the upcoming Star Wars: Episode Eight (scheduled to debut on Dec 15, 2022).

This Battlefront "sequel" will focus on the new trilogy, while the starting time one was entirely based on the old movies. Soderlund besides said that EA intends to better the reception of both critics and gamers, which probably means the highly requested campaign might be included this time around.

I remember the team created a really adept game based on the premise that nosotros had. I would say the game has washed very well for us and reached a very different demographic than a traditional EA game.

So from that perspective, it'southward a success. Are nosotros happy with the 75 rating? No. Is that something we're going to cure going forward? Absolutely.

Don't expect to learn a lot more nearly Star Wars Battlefront 2 until adjacent year, though. This year volition be all about Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2.
