We take a look at the new and old gameplay footage, screenshots, concept art and features of the cancelled Star Wars Battlefront 3.
From Star Wars 1313 to Battlefront III and Project Ragtag, these are the cancelled Star Wars games fans still wish had made it to release.
Is Star Wars Battlefront 3 coming? Well, the correct answer is yes, no and maybe. It’s been six years since the second instalment, and fans are still waiting for confirmation of another sequel.
Game companies are not mature enough to handle this concept without turning it into a casino.
The remakes of battlefront should have been more simular to the originals. CoD/battlefield reskinned as Star Wars was not the anwser.
Someone has just revealed images proving that there was supposed to be a Star Wars Battlefront III for PSP.
Oh yea battlefront games were on the psp weren't they? And force unleashed as well. Great "handheld" versions those were.
Battlefront III in PSP is just Elite Squadron, was never cancelled. The start up menu is even the same same with X1 and X2.
I don't even want to read, too sad :(
Disney should pay DICE to develop Star Wars Battlefront 3 using the FROSTBITE 3 Engine
Yeah, so we could play Call of Duty Star Wars.
Dice is not a good option.
I'm not sure that Disney is that worried about the violence in Star Wars and I'm pretty certain that that isn't the reason 1313 was axed. The violence in Star Wars isn't beyond what Disney has released in the past.
That said, a couple of things to consider:
1. The movies 7, 8, and 9 are being made. An entirely new timeline. All the cancellations Disney has been doing could be part of a massive reboot along with taking control of the license. Point is, until Disney actually does something with the license we shouldn't assume its dead.
2. As a gaming franchise Star Wars is still strong and with a good investment will make money.
3. Battlefront 3 could have given LucasArts a great chance to make money and decided not to. I simply cannot understand how one decides to not make BF3 the #1 priority. Even if the studio developing it wasn't meeting deadlines, or whatever was happening, and had to cancel it, why start an entirely new IP like 1313?
I haven't decided if Disney will be the end of Star Wars but LucasArts wasn't any better. Remember they canceled BF3.
I say wait until the movies are about to be released. At that point we might have a better idea about what they want to do. As it stands, I welcome the change in timeline.
