So take everything with a grain of Salt but apparently some devs got together and made a Battlefront game based on the originals, in Unreal 4. It's going to be Free and so far seems to have passed through the IP protection stages and looks pretty beta but impressive.
Frontwire Studios - Coming Soon
The new Battlefront game by EA was pretty to look at but I wouldn't really even call it a game. It looked to me like they built some maps and demo work, got rushed to complete to make force awakens and just put it out as is. It's more like a trailer for an actual game.
As an older FPS player graphics mean a bit less to me than gameplay so this appeals to me. They've announced it will be limited to 32v32 and will have a competitive mode.
Frontwire Studios - Coming Soon
Hello Frontwire Community!
For the past few months we have been telling everyone that we would not be able to release Galaxy in Turmoil on Steam due to restrictions with our use of the Star Wars IP. Obviously we’re not a major studio like Bethesda or any of the other big ones, so we obviously lack the negotiating power of a studio that has put out various triple A titles. The second avenue we discussed was Steam Greenlight, however their terms of service state your game can only consist of assets you own, such as Star Wars characters, names, etc. As we all know, Frontwire Studios does not own Star Wars (As much as I wish we did).
It is with great pleasure that as of today I am able to officially announce that Frontwire Studios has officially signed a distribution deal with Steam/Valve for the game Galaxy in Turmoil. After ongoing discussion between Valve Representatives and myself, Valve/Steam has agreed to ship Galaxy in Turmoil to it’s millions of users for FREE.
