Lucasfilm is reportedly shopping a new Star Wars Battlefront game, with Bungie and DICE among the names circulating.
Jeff Grubb highlighted an EGM Quartermann column saying Lucasfilm is looking for a development partner for a follow-up to Battlefront 2, and that Bungie is one of the studios in the mix if DICE passes.
No deal has been confirmed and the game is not yet in development.
Bungie has a long track record with large-scale sci-fi shooters. A licensed sequel would give the studio a clearer commercial path than another new IP.

An Xbox business manager says the company uses AI and that you can make a game with a simple prompt.
Brandon Stirrup, who works on Xbox business strategy, said gaming is the only industry still pretending not to use AI because of negative user sentiment.
He made a small game in three hours of active work over a weekend using Unreal with MCP, despite never having made a game before.
Stirrup said he is willing to take the hit so hundreds of people at Xbox can stop pretending they are not using AI.
The statements treat AI use as already common inside Xbox, with the quick prototype offered as proof that basic game creation no longer requires traditional development experience.
