Could "Star Wars Battlefront 3" release date happen this December?

While there has been no official announcement yet, it has been heavily speculated that the release of the third installment to the hit gaming title is going to coincide with J.J. Abrams' sci-fi movie "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," Christian Post reported.

While EA DICE has failed to comment about the rumored release date for "Star Wars Battlefront 3," game designer Niklas Fergraeus has promised gamers a "great variety" of multiplayer gameplay maps once "Star Wars Battlefront 3" hit the shelves.

"We have actually made the decision to specifically tailor certain maps to certain game modes, and what we get from that is not only incredibly varied scales, but also gameplay that will allow players to live out some of their most memorable 'Star Wars' battle fantasies," he mentioned during a recent interview with IGN.

"However, with the talent we have here at DICE, the Frostbite technology at our fingertips, and the fantastic working relationship we have with Lucas, I believe we will deliver a Star Wars experience that excites fans around the world and gives them the chance to play out battles in some of the most iconic locales in the series history."

While "Star Wars Battlefront 3" release date is rumored to coincide with "The Force Awakens," Venture Capital Post also reported that the game title will also explore the story of the "Episode VII" movie, adding that the upcoming "Star Wars Battlefront" game is the "most expensive" in the history of the gaming franchise.

Expert Reviews added that the "Star Wars Battlefront 3" game would allow gamers to use either the first or third person shooter that uses a Battlelog service from "Battlefield 4."

In addition, EA's Label boss Patrick Söderlund explained that "Star Wars Battlefront 3" is what DICE's interpretation of what the game should be during his interview with Eurogamer.

"This is DICE's interpretation of what Battlefront should be...That's the best description you can have," he explained.

"There are absolutely things in the previous Battlefront games that you'll recognize and remember, but DICE wants to put its own flavor on it. That's the only way we can do it. Hence it's called 'Star Wars: Battlefront,' without a 3 at the end. We want to say it's something new...But again, it's going to be very Star Wars and very cool."
