EA also confirmed that we can expect more details on Star Wars: Battlefront “in the next couple of months”. Here’s what else they said.

From videogamer.com:

Star Wars Battlefront will release “before Christmas” and the game will be “aligned with” The Force Awakens, EA’s chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen said.

“We’re extremely excited about that and we think there is huge potential for that title.” “More to come in the next couple of months on that as more about the movie comes out as well as more about our titles comes out, but you should consider that a very large activity for us next [financial] year and very large focus, similar to how we thought about Battlefields in the past.”

Still it remains unclear whether the game will be released before or after TFA. The developer is aiming for the game to be “the best Star Wars shooter of all time”. It is expected to be released for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
