Spark Unlimited – Public Disclosure Expected Sometime in 2012
Hey Battlefrontians.. I know that it has been awhile since my last post, but there just hasn’t been a whole lot worth while to report on.
The Video Game Awards have come and gone once again… and again, we are disappointed that no news for Battlefront 3 has been released or hinted upon. A few new developments from Spark Unlimited have been posted including a recent announcement that states the following:
We are in FULL PRODUCTION of a high-profile, popular game property for a major publishing partner. With the public disclosure expected sometime in 2012, we are looking for innovative and creative professionals to bring to life a Triple-A game for an awaiting, highly critical audience. Employing agile techniques (SCRUM) we are developing this product utilizing our experiences with the Unreal engine.
This is, of course what we hope will be announced as Battlefront 3!.. and the description seems to match up with the credentials that Battlefront 3 would need. I wonder when “sometime in 2012″ will be…. ugh..
As it turns out as well, Spark is currently working on two unannounced projects. The other, which pre-production started in November states:
We started PRE-PRODUCTION in November 2011 to develop a Triple-A Combat Adventure for a world-wide publisher. We are looking for innovative professionals to be members of a core creative team to bring to the console and PC markets the vision of an accomplished game director.
Other than that, there hasn’t been a any new developments.. at least that I’ve heard of..
If any of my fellow Battlefrontian have any news or tidbits, feel free to email them to me at admin@battlefront3.net.
Lets hear your thoughts!! Don’t forget you can have some great discussions with us at the BF3.net forums located here!

maybe swbf3 is coming when playstation 4 and xbox 720 will come out?
There is probably not ever going to be a PS4 or Xbox720. Sorry to burst the bubble.
I don’t know… Could be Jedi Knight as they said above, but still let’s have our expectations high cause that’s why some of us visit this site very often to find news about the game.
I Love the Snow on the site
yeah i think this might be Battlefront III. But if it is….im proably gonna stop playing Battlefront II 
You should still play BF2, I still play BF1. There is a special charm to BF2 and 1.
Im hoping for a campain with a main customizable character thats works the same way as a hero. in the original battlefront 3 leaked vid it looked like this was the case. also a mini campain were its like a oldernate version of star wars were the clone wars happened but sideous screwed up order 66. you choose your faction like a breakaway group of clones, rebuilt cis, rising rebels or empire. each faction has different missions like the empire is trying to establish order and hunt down the rest of the jedi. the clones are rebuilding just inside the unknown regions. things like that. the main thing im hoping for are being able to walk around your ships without the combat. like in the leaked vid there was a scene were a trooper saluted you as you walked past. that was my personal favourite part as in combat he would be to busy to say hi.
yea that
I like most of those ideas, but I dont want a single hero. I want a cohesive team of classes with customizeable weapons for different uses. And maybe stock classes for online play.
Really digging the alternate universe idea though!!! also eras and stuff I would want:
Kotor
TOR
Republic commando
Mandalorians
Yuzzhan Vong
Force Unleashed
—-with ability to play on both sides, on many branching missions all the way across the nearly 6000 year star wars timeline!
I think that they should start putting more Expanded Universe into all of there games because I think that well all get what happened from Episode 1 to Episode 6 but that just could be me…
Yeah, i get what you mean. 1-6 is fun but has been done soooo many times.
There are so many other things to add from all the books, comics, etc that it would be foolish not to use it all.
I agree, Kal. There is so much stuff, and with all that other stuff — it would be sure to boost sales.
I’d love to be able to play with Darth Ban or Coran Horn
I have known this for a while, but…. at least we don’t have to push newer comments 10 times anymore. If the announce is “sometime in 2012″, and as they have mentioned earlier, they hope the game will be released by the end of 2012, which is like saying BEFORE CHRISTMAS to me, that means that the reveal is coming early 2012, maybe March or April. I think that since Spark has been hinting their game will be announced soon, this E3 is probably the closest possible time frame. LucasArts always has a big presence at the convention, and that will be about when SWTOR’s sales start dying. I hope that Spark’s members and possibly even LucasArts employees have seen this site, it’s wonderful
This from Game Informer in April:
According to Gamasutra, LucasArts has hired Crystal Dynamics’ previous Tomb Raider creative and franchise director, Tim Longo, as creative director on an unannounced game.
In the past, Longo has worked with LucasArts on games like Star Wars: Starfighter and Jedi Starfighter as lead designer, and was creative director on Star Wars: Republic Commando. Most recently he worked on Tomb Raider: Underworld and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider Anniversary. Curious to see what LucasArts has in store for its next project.

Would the Combat Adventure be like Tomb Raider? Because they say,” .. to bring to the console and PC markets the vision of an accomplished game director.”
Space to ground and ground to space, or don’t bother (X-wing VS Tie Fighter space depth and physics conjoined with Improved Ground combat physics)
In all honesty, that does sound promising. I mean, as you say, it does fit the Battlefront 3 description and expectations, so there is all to hope for.
Yeah I’ll go for E3 to see an annoucement but it coulb be really nice to see it at the Star Wars Celebration 6 Lets hope so!! Battlefront 3 Will Come Back guys Lets keep up All the hope that we have for that Greatest Star Wars Game ever made (in my opinion
)
2012 eh? Well I’ve been Playing Battlefront IIPC For a while and im bored with it. Hopefully Battlefront III(If they make it(They better freakin Make it)) Will have different modes, Levels, Heroes, Units, Factions, Maps, Abilities and More
DDDD JUST PLEASE MAKE THE STUPID GAME!!!!!!!!
