Rumor: DICE propôs Star Wars Battlefront 3; EA não aprovou projeto
De acordo com o leaker Tom Henderson, a DICE propôs um Star Wars Battlefront 3 para a Electronic Arts, porém a empresa não aprovou o seu desenvolvimento.
O motivo foi o custo do licenciamento. Como sabemos, Star Wars não é mais exclusivo da EA. Apesar disso, Henderson diz que há dois jogos da franquia em desenvolvimento na EA, porém são com foco single-player e na narrativa.
A DICE, por sua vez, trabalha em um novo Battlefield e muitos funcionários que foram importantes na produção de Star Wars Battlefront já deixaram a empresa.
Obviamente, considere todas essas informações como rumor.
Although it currently seems that DICE is not working on Battlefront 3 (and instead another Battlefield), there are currently two Star Wars titles in development under EA – But it appears that those titles are more story-driven/single-player instead of multiplayer.

It would indicate a Battlefront 3 is very unlikely.
I have seen the build file for DICE's next title in October, currently just dubbed "dev-next", which indicates that the title has passed Gate 0, which is its conceptual stage. This stage usually takes a few months of time.

As development on their next game continues (most Frostbite devs left Oct 29th, with other studios leaving soon after) I will keep everyone updated 🙂

It should also be said that development can change at any given time and the next title has started development, bur if Battlefront 3 ever gets greenlit and starts development for whatever reason, I'll break the news.
