We just thought, okay, we’ll figure it out as we go.” But on the other hand, your heart is screaming yes! Because of course you want to make a Star Wars game. And we had enough in our pipeline to be able to say no. We thought, no, this is too intimidating.

“When we were asked to do this we were really scared. “We knew it would be a cumbersome process – to create what we wanted to create,” says Patrick Bach, Dice’s general manager. And it is certainly not like the original Battlefront or its ambitious sequel, which mixed ground and space combat missions to thrilling effect. Star Wars Battlefront is a multiplayer and co-op focused game. There would be no single-player campaign, just a selection of themed maps with AI enemies. There would be no space battles, no characters or environments from the three prequel movies there would be no Battlefield-style squads or customisable classes. Then details of the game were revealed at the Star Wars Experience event in april, and controversy erupted. But the studio came into this project facing three fan bases all ready to take offence: its own Battlefield fans, the Star Wars community and the veteran gamers who recall the original Battlefront titles with nostalgic reverence. Best known for its Battlefield titles, Dice knows how to design compelling large-scale multiplayer conflict. This is the Hoth attack map from Star Wars Battlefront, EA Dice’s take on the classic Star Wars shooter series, originally developed by Pandemic Studios for the PC and PlayStation 2.
