“Star Wars: Battlefront 3” promises to give gamers their very own adventures in the “Star Wars” universe.
“Star Wars: Battlefront 3” senior producer, Sigurlina Ingvarsdottir told Gamespot that gamers will see the absolute core of the famous movie installed in the game. Ingvarsdottir explained that it was very difficult for them to construct the game as the “Star Wars” universe is very vast, and there are so many things in the movie that are well-loved that needed to be in the video game.
But she said that they are very confident that they installed the absolute core of “Star Wars” into the game. The senior producer added that people might debate that this is more important than what they believe in but, unfortunately, they cannot do everything.
Game developer DICE installed some familiar and recognizable icons from the original movie to the game. From planets like Hoth or Endors to characters like Darth Vader and Han Solo. Luke Skywalker is even playable in “Star Wars: Battlefront 3.”
The “Star Wars: Battlefront” game has similarities to DICE’s most iconic game, “Battlefield” while being very different at the same time. Ingvarsdottir explained to fans that the “Battlefront” game is very much its own game even if it borrowed some elements from “Battlefield.” The senior producer explained that the developers for the “Star Wars” inspired game were a mixture of “Battlefield” veteran developers and developers like herself who has not worked for the DICE’s signature franchise before.
Ingvardottir assured fans that they borrowed some aspects that made “Battlefield” great and installed it to “Battlefront.” However, they wanted the latter game to have its own identity, and to provide a unique experience, so they installed some aspects that are very different but noted that people might still recognize the similarities.
Patrick Bach, General Manager at DICE, said they were pressured to produce the game because they know that the “Star Wars” movie has avid followers. Bach said that they want to produce a game that would be as good as the actual film.

Players might also have the ability to customize and tweak the Storm Troopers, known villains in the “Star Wars” movie. Another feature is that the Tattoine map has both midday and dawn versions.
The leak happened when game publisher Electronic Arts invited a number of fans to play the alpha build of “Star Wars: Battlefront 3.” The players were prohibited to publish the videos of the game online by an end-user agreement. However, some players did not follow the provision, resulting to leaked videos of the game in Youtube, Daily Motion, and Vimeo. EA has since removed the videos of the game from those sites.
The “Star Wars: Battlefront 3” game has earned some rave reviews from Games Radar. The website said the game is insane and exciting. The game is described as someone throwing a first-person camera into a “Star Wars” movie battle. It is chaotic, intimate and has a human focus that “Star Wars” needs. “Battlefront” was dubbed as a relentless, giddy, and air-punch generator.
