EA Confirms Respawn and DICE Working Together on Future Project

October 23, 2026 - 01:20

Electronic Arts has confirmed that Respawn Entertainment and DICE will collaborate on an upcoming project, though the publisher has stopped short of officially naming the title. The announcement follows reports indicating the collaboration is centered on a new entry in the Star Wars Battlefront series.

According to sources cited in a Variety report, the project is Star Wars Battlefront 3. Neither EA nor either studio has publicly confirmed that specific title, leaving the official name and details unannounced for now.

What is confirmed is the partnership itself. EA stated that Respawn and DICE will work together on a future project, bringing two of its most experienced teams onto the same development effort. DICE, based in Stockholm, built the original Battlefront reboot and its 2017 sequel, while Respawn, known for the Titanfall series and Star Wars Jedi games, has become one of EA's most trusted studios.

The arrangement suggests EA is looking to combine DICE's history with the Battlefront franchise and its Frostbite engine expertise with Respawn's strength in single player and action design. How responsibilities will be divided between the two studios has not been disclosed.

A 2026 window has circulated in connection with the reported project, but EA has not confirmed a release date, platforms, or any gameplay details. Fans of the series should treat the Battlefront 3 label as reported information rather than an official announcement until the publisher provides further comment. For now, the only confirmed fact is that Respawn and DICE are working together on something new.
