Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection has received a new update focused on fixing many of the issues the game launched with. Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection is a remastered collection of the first two releases in the Battlefront series, something that fans have been requesting for a long time. Although there were Star Wars fans who enjoyed the Battlefront reboot, many of these gamers have cited nostalgia for the classic Star Wars Battlefront games, and developer Aspyr released the collection on March 14, 2024.
EA adds Dead Space and Star Wars: Squadrons studio Motive to its Battlefield dev team

Dead Space remake and Star Wars: Squadrons studio Motive is joining Electronic Arts’ wider Battlefield development team.
Motive will work alongside fellow EA studios DICE, Criterion, and Ripple Effect in “building a Battlefield universe across connected multiplayer experiences and single-player”, the publisher said.
It also confirmed that Battlefield 2042 Season 7 – Turning Point, which launched last month, will be the game’s last.
Motive’s new Battlefield team will be led by Dead Space remake executive producer Philippe Ducharme and creative director Roman Campos-Oriola.
“Their proven expertise in storytelling, immersive battles and developing on the Frostbite engine uniquely positions them to help advance the vision for Battlefield, led by Vince Zampella (EVP, Group GM of Respawn and Battlefield) and Byron Beede (SVP, GM Battlefield),” said Motive GM Patrick Klaus.
“In parallel, development continues to move forward on our Iron Man project, led by Olivier Proulx (Executive Producer) and Ian Frazier (Creative Director).
“The team made excellent progress this year, hitting a major internal milestone and laying a robust foundation for the journey ahead. Iron Man is an important priority for Motive, and I’m very proud of the work we’ve accomplished so far.”
In terms of Battlefield 2042, franchise general manager Beede said “it is now necessary for us to turn from the present to the future” and shift the company’s resources to new experiences.
“After Season 7 concludes, we will continue to support the game with new in-game challenges, events, modes, and of course, ongoing maintenance, but we are moving away from delivering official seasons.”
Today’s announcements follow EA’s recent closure of Ridgeline Games. The Seattle-based studio was founded in 2021 by Halo co-creator Marcus Lehto, who was set to direct a new single-player Battlefield experience before leaving EA under unclear circumstances.

Respawn Job Listing Appears to Confirm New Star Wars Jedi Game
A third entry in Electronic Arts and developer Respawn Entertainment's Star Wars Jedi series seems to have been confirmed by a job listing looking for a Senior Game Writer. After several years of fumbling its exclusive Star Wars license with the Battlefront games, Respawn Entertainment's third-person action Soulslike Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order pleasantly surprised fans in 2019. Its follow-up, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, was released about a year ago to rave reviews despite its rocky technical launch and performance issues, which have since been fixed. Survivor's impeccable storytelling, intricate level design, and challenging lightsaber combat boosted it into the conversation of 2023's best games.

Star Wars Outlaws Features Playable Sabacc
Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment are promising an expansive open world experience with the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws, which is being billed as the ultimate scoundrel fantasy, and though that will involve a lot of juggling of different criminal syndicates and maintaining your reputation with each different faction, that doesn’t mean you won’t be able to find the time to sit down and, say, play some cards.

Star Wars Outlaws’ City of Mirogana is “Quite Compact”, Focuses on Density Instead
Open world games are often in the habit of being larger than they need to be, particularly when they’re coming from Ubisoft, but developer Massive Entertainment continues to make assurances that it’s taking a different approach with the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws. The action-adventure title will see players exploring the Outer Rim, which, as you might imagine, will mean visiting a number of different planets and locations. Obviously, not all has been revealed on that front, but details have emerged on one particular location in a recently published Game Informer preview, and how its design prioritized density over size.
