This Rogue One map is the closest Battlefront has got to Andor so far (EA)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of Andor<\/a>\u2019s stars has helped bring Star Wars<\/a> Battlefront<\/a> back into the spotlight and he’s not the only one amongst the cast to be an avid gamer.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been more than five years since EA wrapped up support for Star Wars Battlefront 2<\/a> and while the company has continued to push out new titles for the franchise, it appears to have little interest in making a Battlefront 3.<\/p>\n

Over the last few weeks, though, Battlefront 2 enjoyed a sudden surge in players<\/a>, on both PC and consoles, which has prompted some hope that EA will be encouraged to start work on a new sequel.<\/p>\n

It’s not entirely clear what promoted the surge in interest, but it seems to have been a combination of Star Wars Day in early May, the 20th anniversary of Revenge of the Sith (which became the highest-grossing re-release of all time in the US), and the second season of Andor<\/a> on Disney+<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of which, actor Muhannad Ben Amor, who played the role of Wilmon ‘Wil’ Paak in Andor, has also expressed his interest in seeing a third entry in the multiplayer shooter series.<\/p>\n

In the wake of the show\u2019s conclusion earlier this month, he took to Instagram to say, \u2018Star Wars gotta give us Battlefront 3 ASAP.\u2019<\/p>\n

He also shared a screenshot of his playtime on Battlefront 2, revealing he\u2019s spent about 469 hours on the game: \u2018Been a veteran since day one. Let\u2019s hope Battlefront 3 happens!\u2019<\/p>\n

Considering Amor would have been a young teenager when Battlefront 2 was out (he’s roughly 19 or 20 years old and the game launched in 2017), he’s clearly in pretty deep.<\/p>\n

His original posts were Instagram Stories, so they\u2019ve already automatically deleted themselves, but fans on Reddit<\/a> were quick to save them as screenshots<\/a> to spread Amor\u2019s comments around.<\/p>\n

According to SteamDB<\/a>, Battlefront 2\u2019s concurrent player count has reached over 18,600 players, the most it\u2019s ever been since the game launched on Steam in 2020. The game has also shot up the best-seller lists on Xbox and PlayStation 5.<\/p>\n

Mats Helge Holm, who served as associate producer on Battlefront 2\u2019s Celebration Edition, has weighed in on the situation, stating on Reddit that there\u2019s interest amongst the old team to work on a sequel: \u2018\u2026 having heard around my group of ex-colleagues, we want to get the gang back together.\u2019<\/p>\n

It’s not him but the bean counters at EA who get to make that decision, although this wouldn’t be the first time a Star Wars actor influenced one of their games.<\/p>\n
