Recent rumors suggest Disney may be searching for a new developer to create Star Wars Battlefront 3, potentially placing Bungie in the running. DICE, known for developing the last two titles, is the most likely candidate, but Disney is considering alternatives. Bungie, the developer behind Halo, Destiny, and Marathon, could be interested as the company navigates its recent changes, including reviving Destiny 2 and reconsidering Marathon's future.
The gap between Star Wars Battlefront II in 2005 and DICE's revival in 2015 is expected to be the longest in the franchise's history. Disney's decision to explore new development partners comes after EA's apparent abandonment of the franchise, which continues to have an active modding community. Recent Star Wars games have received strong reviews, providing Disney with an opportunity to capitalize on the series' recent positive reception.
