I thought this rumor was squashed…guess not.
Multiple sources are reporting that developer Spark Unlimited is currently working on the third entry in the Star Wars: Battlefront series. While this rumor is somewhat old, we now have some proof.
First, there’s this job listing:
Spark is looking for a senior combat designer for a 3rd Person Action/Adventure sequel in a high-profile science fiction franchise currently greenlit for full production development for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC markets.
Then, there’s the LinkedIn page of former Senior Software Engineer for Spark Unlimited, John Lawrie:
Unannounced third person sword fighting game (well known IP, Xbox 360, PS3)
A second LinkedIn page confirms that the Spark Unlimited title is a shooter.
So let’s piece this together, shall we? Well known Sci-Fi IP shooter with sword fighting that also happens to be a sequel.
I don’t know about you, but it sounds a lot like Star Wars to me. Especially when the unnaounced game’s publisher had this to say:
Publisher hasn’t stated when or where the announcement will take place…The time and place could be close or far, far away.

this Gaming News sucks…

since I get limitless cell browsing, would not this be the same as information usage? Do I have to update my plan or could i just keep my latest agreement since I am content with the plan I presently have?
I heard it’s being developed by Spark Unlimited now? I know it was abandoned 2 years ago though.
Random question why did they make Star Wars 4,5 and 6 before 1,2,3?
I get daily updates from Google telling me the latest update on “Star Wars Battlefront 3″
Over at http://www.battlefront3.net it apears that Spark Unlimited is making the game.
But i thought that they announced the game they were making was XCOM: Enemy Unknown.
Or are they making another game at the same time because i noticed on the spark website there are two projects going but it hasn’t been updated in while so does anyone know if there will be SWBF3?
I am getting Star Wars Battlefront 1 and I am wondering what you believe is the best planet on the game? It can be because of the maps, game play, fun, etc
I have been playing battlefront 2 for years and this is the only thing that confuses me. I switch my guy and go back into battle but I am at a different base. I did not die so there was not minimap to choose what post to start at.
