Recent enthusiasm for a new *Star Wars Battlefront* game has gained momentum, thanks in part to Muhannad Ben Amor—actor from the critically praised *Star Wars* series *Andor*. Known for his role as Wilmon Paak, Ben Amor recently voiced his support for a third installment on social media, reigniting fan hopes for a full sequel.

In a post on Instagram (via Comicbook), he declared, “Star Wars gotta give us Battlefront 3 ASAP,” while also sharing that he's logged over 469 hours in *Battlefront 2*. He added, “Grew up with Battlefront 2 — been a veteran since day one. Let’s HOPE Battlefront 3 happens.”

A Resurgence in Popularity

Over the last month, *Star Wars Battlefront 2* has experienced a major revival, drawing more players than it has in years. This resurgence aligns with the release of season two of *Andor*, along with the general excitement surrounding Star Wars’ annual May 4 celebrations.

After several years of averaging around 2,000 concurrent players on Steam, the game is now nearing its all-time high of 10,000 players—a figure it originally reached back in 2017. Despite DICE officially ending support for the title, the community remains active and engaged.

Is a New Battlefront in the Works?

At the moment, DICE appears focused on delivering its next *Battlefield* title, which is currently in testing and expected to be officially revealed this summer. There have been no official announcements regarding a potential *Star Wars Battlefront 3*.

DICE may also remain cautious about revisiting the franchise after the initial backlash toward *Battlefront 2* due to its loot box system. However, public perception of the game has improved significantly over time, especially after EA removed controversial monetization practices.

IGN reflected this shift in a 2019 re-review, stating: “Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a redemption story worthy of the Skywalker saga... Overall, it’s a great package now that serves as one of the best and most thrilling ways to have an authentic Star Wars gaming experience.”

While EA no longer holds exclusive rights to develop *Star Wars* games, Respawn Entertainment continues work on its *Star Wars Jedi* trilogy. For now, fans will have to keep their hopes alive through campaigns led by passionate voices like Muhannad Ben Amor—and maybe a few more surprise player spikes won’t hurt either.
