Star Wars Battlefront 3 Is Real, EA Officially Confirms

Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Silver Lake, and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners announced their acquisition of Electronic Arts in Sept. 2025, but only officially closed the deal on Aug. 4 this year. Since then, video game publisher EA has made its first major move: laying off 3% of its global workforce.

The result is a major blow to EA employees, particularly to the iconic RPG developer BioWare. BioWare has been shut down for good, and EA has pulled the plug on its new Mass Effect title. The full memo sent to EA employees is available here.

However, there is good news for Star Wars gamers: Star Wars Battlefront 3 isn’t a pipe dream after all — it is actively in development.

According to Variety, EA’s Cam Weber, president and chief studios officer, and David Tinson, president and COO, confirmed that the publisher is seeing strong success with first-person live-service shooters, particularly Battlefield 6. Not only are future Battlefield titles planned, but the execs also said EA will be “bringing together our Respawn and DICE studios to collaborate on a future project.” Respawn is also working on the next chapter of the Jedi games, Jedi 3.

Variety claims that multiple sources have confirmed that the project is Star Wars Battlefront 3 for Lucasfilm Games.

Electronic Arts boss says 'Our values and our commitment to players ... remain unchanged'

This appears to debunk rumors that Bungie, the creators of the beloved sci-fi shooter Destiny series, will take over Star Wars Battlefront 3 .
