It's much easier to sell og Battlefront 1 and 2 with minor adjustments than to develop Battlefront 3 from ground up. This re-release doesn't mean anything on its own for the future of modern Battlefront iteration other than maybe serve as an estimation of gamer interest in this franchise.

Mark my words. A new Battlefront game will be revealed in 2024 or 2025

SO GLAD you are getting views since the announcement - the first thing I thought when this was announced was that Elliot would be getting some good views finally!

[djmace]

I truly believe that the performance of this rerelease will determine whether or not Battlefront III will be created. So all I can say to everyone is show your support!

[mysticwraith]

Just imagine conquest with this generations technology....

[novacaboose]

all they need to do is finish the canceled battlefront 3 and release it to the public. its literally like 95 percent done, they could release it for 30 dollars and make like so much money, why would they ever scrap it????

[Nirvanablue]

This is definitely a testing bed to see how well the community responds to Battlefront. They want to revamp the gameplay loop, and when they see the servers populated on every platform, they will start drop-feeding teasers.

I have NO INTEREST in Dice touching Battlefront ever again either! So we do have that in common Dice! LOL

[GiusePooP]

I'm gonna buy the collection not for the 2 games (that i already own in their original version for PC and ps2), buy only because i Hope to help in getting a bf3 by buying them again

[tobiasranevi]

Am glad to see you get a new surge of subscribers! Your voice has always been synonymous to Battlefront and Star Wars gaming to me!

[dblack]

They are testing how well this re release sells. So make sure we ALL buy it!

As I've said on several videos about the re-release - the desire for a proper Battlefront 3 or a Planetside 2-like Star Wars game is GIGANTIC. We desperately want a gigantic single-player or multi-player Star Wars game that is almost a LITTLE bit towards the MMO scale - allow us to fight the Clone Wars or Rebellion eras, even the era BETWEEN the two wars, to conquer the galaxy.
We want GALACTIC CONQUEST, desperately. We have it in the OG Battlefronts, and in Empire At War. But it only exists officially in those old games. We want a modern game - EA's Battlefront 1 or 2 graphics, maybe a LITTLE lower graphics, so we can have a more maps, higher player team sizes - like 40 or so, maybe 60, and matching amounts of AI units on the 'skill' of the AI in Battlefront 2 EA's co-op modes, maybe even a bit smarter than that. But we want MASSIVE Star Wars battles and teh ability to conquer the galaxy - it doesn't even need to follow either Legends or Disney canon.

Heck, I think we'd even like a THREE WAY FACTION WAR. Add the Criminal Underground for both war eras - the Galactic Civil War would get a mixture of mercenaries and Mandalorians that can fight on any of hte 3 sides, and the Criminal Side would be teh FRIKKEN ZANN CONSORTIUM. Imagine that bloody AGGRESSOR CLASS bombarding an area on the ground - a massive Ion blast disables all weapons and vehicles, even lightsabers and shields, a massive area is affected, and a slightly smaller area is then RUINED by the gigantic plasma cannon blast, setting the area aflame for a minute or several, making it near impossible to be inside without shields.

Investors and companies KNOW we want something or MORE along what I just said. We don't care too much about canon, and more about CONTENT. Battlefront is super-popular even today, even the old games. Give us what we want, and we will naturally throw OUR ENTIRE BANK ACCOUNTS at them. OK, nearly the entire bank account. But you all get my point.

GIVE US GALACTIC CONQUEST! And if we get a 3-faction war with neutral mercenaries that can go to either faction, that would be truly perfect.
Imperial Fleet vs Rebel Fleet vs Zann Consortium Fleet. It would be so much fun!

And a pseudo Star Wars MMO set during hte Galactic Civil War where the player can partially impact the outcome of the galaxy would also be fun. Would definitely allow for the Zann Consortium ships to make a comeback - the Consortium is in the Disney Canon after all, they're just not doing anything with it yet. Huge potential there.

Thank you so much for this video I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking that this Classic Edition launch is a test run for the hype behind Battlefront 3 ❤❤

[michaelgeorge]

I think they will make bf3. Obviously I'm hoping but I don't see how they can't, the demand is there

[DarkestKnightshade]

You are definitely right they wont develop a new battlefront any time soon.
But if we make sure to buy and play this game consistently, they could definitely look into re releasing rogue and elite squadron to all platforms. And if those do well, who knows, maybe there will be some incentive to finish the original battlefront 3

[CarnageRulez]

Technically speaking, Battlefront 3 could happen. Just likely not from DICE’s Battlefront series.

While you are correct that re-releasing an old game is easier to do than developing a new one. However, the original canceled Battlefront 3 was already technically released on the PlayStation Station Portable as “Battlefront: Elite Squadron”.

That game was the original handheld port for Battlefront 3, and has all of the old files that were used to make the canceled Battlefront 3(files in the game are straight up labeled as Battlefront 3).

If the assets for Elite Squadron survived, they very much could use those assets to remake the canceled Battlefront 3 in the same vein that the Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 remake was built on the coding of the old Pro Skater games.

tried playing battlefront 2 in preparation for the classic collection, every game had a low lvl hacker with 80 kills while everyone else has 5

Thank you for this video. Did you notice the server issues in Galactic Assault on PC in BF 2? It is pretty much unplayable right now, because players get kicked out of (almost) all lobbies. I just wanted to pass this on to you, so that maybe it gets to a former developer or to EA/DICE somehow.

[maxy]

congrats with the boost on ur channel ! always enjoyed ur content, remember finding ur channel when Star Wars Battlefront (2015) was released :p

[untamed]

HEAR ME OUT.
A STARWARS BATTLE FRONT BATTLE ROYAL. Obviously keep the same conquest and other game modes too, but add a battle royal like COD does. Star Wars has a huge base.
And for them to make money they can sell skins that will help us stand out individually. Put that with a season pass every 3 months. Introducing more heroes and villains going even far back into the old republic or new skins for the soldiers etc camos etc.
