EA has revealed the title of their new Star Wars Battlefront game. And it is Star Wars Battlefront II. Roman numerals and all.

There is only one Battlefront II. It was released in 2005.

In Progress:
--Star Wars: Battlefront - Anniversary Edition (formerly Star Wars: Battlefront - Legacy Edition)

On Hold:
--Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron For SWBF1
--Endor: Imperial Base

I will never call their new game "Star Wars Battlefront II"
It'll be called SWBF2EA.

And I really hope they have the clone wars in this game.
The years just fly past, don't they?

I doubt it. This game will likely focus on the era of the new movies.

At least it doesn't have the colon. That would just be confusing.

They're wrong if they think they can erase the old games by naming the new ones after them, although it will muddy up search engines. I hope SWBFSpy outlives all the EABF games.

Yeah, even their first one is really unfinished--and never will be.  You can't even find a game most nights.  Only 1200 players on at a time these days...and since there is no browser, you can't just find a game on your own, you have to search regions...

They already confirmed multiple eras. The question is how many.

Agreed. I'll still buy it if it doesn't, of course, but it really should have it.

QuoteThey're wrong if they think they can erase the old games by naming the new ones after them

thats just wrong how could ea be so cold, bitter and heartless 
ea should stop making star wars battlefront games all together.
or at leased thats my opinion
but i do think ea should have the right to finish there
game (just with a different name) i mean it was just
about the worst thing in the world when free radical's
star wars battlefront was canceled  :'( it makes me cry
just thinking about it it looked like such a good game
and it was almost finished  :'( don't mind my crying it
may never stop now. :'(

Tho I do enjoy the older ea games
like from the 90's like NFSHS that was
a fun 1999 game. I think that i just like old games

well anyway i hope they get a lot of complaints
about it and have to change the name to Star Wars Batllefront EA 2
or something like that then i might be able to stop crying  :'(

Which means Battlefront "2" will be the last one made by DICE before the Curse Of Battlefront 3 hits them.

Honestly, I really don't see how it wouldn't be. But i'm sure a lot of people will hate it anyway, just because EA made it.

No offense, but it's just a title.

That's probably what everyone will end up calling it regardless.

I feel like we've brought this on ourselves in some way.

I'm not one of those people who would hate it just because DICE made it. I judge a game on its merits. We had Battlefield 1 come out last year, and that's by the exact same developers, but it plays so much better. There could be all sorts of reasons. I personally think DICE's Battlefront was rushed and they failed to properly take into account the franchise's legacy. I hope they have learned their lesson, but I'm not going to be purchasing this day one or preordering it like I did the previous one. I'll be waiting until they do a sale like they did with Battlefield 1 (where I got it at 45% off on the PS Store)
In Progress:
--Star Wars: Battlefront - Anniversary Edition (formerly Star Wars: Battlefront - Legacy Edition)

On Hold:
--Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron For SWBF1
--Endor: Imperial Base

Hopefully this time they add more content and charge a lower price for the game and DLC. Also, I found this on reddit:

SWBF EA is fine. Come at me.
