"Star Wars: Battlefront 2" is currently in focus for EA. The CFO, Blake Jorgensen, hinted at major plans for the game during an investor briefing in Europe. He said that the company is eyeing a better future for "Star Wars: Battlefront 2" and their plans for "Battlefield."
It is reported that the company will not make another game for the "Battlefield" series in two years. Blake Jorgensen said that EA is looking for ways to provide extra opportunities to engage their players. The idea of building another game is definitely not on EA's priorities as of now. The company is currently focused on one factor: the development and improvement of all its games before financial considerations. The CFO, Jorgensen, also stated that if the quality of the games goes up then more and more people will engage in a game. Then, the company can monetize more overtime.
Jorgensen also discussed the forthcoming "Star Wars: Battlefront 2." There were reviews that the game lacks depth and substance for the hardcore gamers. This criticism was acknowledged by Jorgensen. He stated that there were criticisms because players want more. He took those reviews well and said that they will act as guides when EA will build the next game, reported Game Spot.
The first "Battlefront," which sold 14 million copies, became one of the best-selling "Star Wars" games in history. This game placed the focus on characters and settings from the original trilogy: Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Leia, and Darth Vader. The "Star Wars: Battlefront 2," will take a deviation and will lean more on the latest movies. This will enhance the visibility of the game and take it to the fore to a wider audience, reported Digital Trends.
It is reported that Jorgensen described "Star Wars: Battlefront 2" as a much bigger, much more exciting installment of the series. It is expected that the game will release in the fall of 2017. This has not been confirmed as of now. "Star Wars: Battlefront 2" is not the only "Star Wars" development presently in the works at EA. The "Rogue One: Scarif" with enhanced content and characters from the upcoming movie will release the DLC in December.
