Star Wars fans no doubt have plenty of questions about what DICE plans to do with the beloved Battlefront series, but it's still a little too early to tell. The ink is barely dry on the agreement, but DICE specifically hopes it isn't making a Battlefield-themed Star Wars game.

"We don't want Star Wars plus Battlefield," said executive producer Patrick Bach, "because that would be boring, right?" DICE seemed like the obvious choice to revive the much-troubled Battlefront franchise. Fans weren't the only ones who wanted it. Bach says that "LucasArts wanted us to build a Battlefront game."But what will DICE's Battlefront actually be?"In general, we wouldn't build a game that is a copy of someone else's game," Bach told IGN. "We couldn't do that. We're too stubborn and too annoying for people to think we could do that." Star Wars: Battlefront is still in the earliest of stages at DICE, so it is still "figuring out what we want to build" while it "looks at the history of the Battlefront franchise to reverse engineer it...to find out what it was supposed to be."What do you want to see from DICE's Battlefront? While we wait who-knows-how-long for its unspecified release date, let us know your thoughts about Star Wars' future in Frostbite, and the potential for first-person Battlefront combat.
