Fans are rallying for a new Star Wars Battlefront game, fueled by a prominent actor from the acclaimed Andor series.
Recent weeks have seen a surge in players returning to 2017’s Star Wars Battlefront 2, achieving its highest Steam player count in years, despite DICE halting support long ago.
Muhannad Ben Amor, known for portraying Wilmon Paak in Andor, has taken to social media to advocate for a full-fledged sequel.
“Star Wars needs to deliver Battlefront 3 soon,” Amor posted on Instagram (via Comicbook), revealing he’s logged 469 hours in Battlefront 2. “Impressive dedication, but stay grounded,” he added playfully.
“I grew up with Battlefront 2 — a loyal player from the start,” Amor shared. “Fingers crossed for Battlefront 3.”
The recent spike in Battlefront 2’s popularity aligns with the buzz from Andor’s gripping second season and Star Wars’ annual May 4 festivities.
From an average of 2,000 Steam players, the game has seen a steady climb, nearing its all-time peak of 10,000 concurrent players.
Does this resurgence signal hope for Star Wars Battlefront 3? Currently, DICE is focused on perfecting its upcoming Battlefield title, with player testing underway and a reveal expected this summer.
DICE may hesitate to revisit the franchise after Battlefront 2’s controversial launch tied to loot boxes. However, the game’s reputation has improved over time. While EA, DICE’s parent company, no longer exclusively develops Star Wars titles, Respawn continues work on a Star Wars Jedi sequel.
“Star Wars Battlefront 2 has become a redemption arc fit for the Skywalker saga,” IGN noted in its 2019 re-review. “It now stands as one of the most exciting and authentic Star Wars gaming experiences available.”
