There Won’t Be A New Battlefield Game Next Year
Looks like EA is learning from Activision’s mistakes, or maybe Battlefield 1 is doing really well for the publisher. The result being, as EA CFO Blake Jorgensen said, “EA won’t have another Battlefield back for a couple of years.” Worry not, for EA will have something in store for Star Wars fans for 2017. “Next year we’ll have Battlefront, the Star Wars game”, Jorgensen said. It will be much bigger and much more exciting than the previous iteration, focusing on the new movies. The current game will also get something to give players the taste of the new Star Wars movies in the form of the Rogue One: Sarif DLC, releasing on 6th December. “We were really working with the old canvas of Star Wars, the old trilogy. We weren’t using any of th...
Galaxy in Turmoil Getting A Demo Next Year
For those who don’t know, Galaxy in Turmoil is a fan made game inspired by Star Wars Battlefront. The project was supposed to release on Steam for free, but LucasFilm had to shut it down because of exclusive licensing with EA.

It might sound like a long wait, but the studio said they want to wait till the game is completely playable and bug-free before taking it to the public. “We refuse to crowdfund until you get the c...
Star Wars: Battlefront’s New Mod Makes It Look Like The Movies
Martin “Toddyftw” Bergman’s Toddyhancer graphics mod, which we got a look at back in August, makes Grand Theft Auto V’s lighting look ridiculously good. As it turns out, it also works wonders for Star Wars Battlefront. It’s a very pretty game to start with, no question, but the screens he recently posted to Imgur look like stills taken straight from the films….with sharpness cranked up to eye-gouging levels. Sadly, there’s no video of the Toddyhanced Star Wars Battlefront in action, so we have to take the quality of these screens on faith to a certain extent. That said, the roughly 80 images archive Bergman posted look startlingly similar to the films, though the texture ‘pop’ comes from oversharpening. (100 or so screens from an older ...
