This partnership announcement came as part of a broader statement regarding EA's future plans, which included the development of new Battlefield titles. EA's statement also revealed that DICE and Respawn are working together on an undisclosed future project aimed at driving growth in their shooter portfolio.\n\nThe confirmation of this collaboration has further fueled rumors about Star Wars: Battlefront 3, following earlier reports that suggested DICE and Respawn were teaming up to create the highly anticipated sequel. These rumors were corroborated by a source from Variety, although specific details about the game's content and release timeline have not been disclosed.\n\nStar Wars: Battlefront 3 has long been a popular demand among fans, with initial efforts from DICE receiving mixed reviews due to monetization issues, despite its overall positive reception. The game has garnered respect from the Star Wars community, leading to consistent calls for a sequel. Now, with Respawn's involvement, the project appears to be gaining momentum, potentially resulting in a compelling addition to the Star Wars franchise.\n\nResident of the Titanfall and Apex Legends team, Respawn has prior experience working with Star Wars content, including the Jedi games and the recently launched Star Wars Zero Company. Additionally, the studio has a history of working on a canceled Star Wars shooter, rumored to be a Mandalorian game. As the project's true nature remains uncertain, fans eagerly await further information to determine if this collaboration will indeed result in the long-awaited Star Wars: Battlefront 3.",
