There is so much anticipation around the movie Star Wars - The Force Awakens and the next Star Wars Battlefront game that is also set to release around the holidays this december.
During the Electronic Arts earning call, CFO Blake Jorgenson dropped some possible teasers in the conference when talking about the movie and the game. He noted:
"And then, last, but far from least, we have got the Battlefront Star Wars title coming in before Christmas next year, aligned with the Star Wars movie
rollout. We are extremely excited about that. We think there is huge potential for that title."
Though, the Star Wars game isn't based on the movie, we just might see some similarities between the two. There have been some reservation from Battlefront fans that the game will be too much like the Battlefield games. Blake dropped some tidbits about that as well as more possible alignment between the movie and the game saying:
"More to come in the next couple of months on that as more about the movie comes out as well as more about our title comes out. But you should
consider that a very large activity for us next year and a very large focus, similar to how we thought about Battlefields in the past"
Who knows what similarities we will see between the movie and the game, but both projects are going to be well met by Star Wars fans everywhere. If they put the same amount of effort into the Star Wars games as they did the Battlefield games . . . everyone can expect and instant classic.
