Star Wars Andor Actor Joins Calls for Battlefront 3 as Battlefront 2 Popularity Spikes

  • In May 2025, Muhannad Ben Amor, known for his role in the TV series Andor, encouraged both fans and game developers to support the creation of a sequel to Star Wars Battlefront, spurred by a recent increase in Battlefront 2’s player activity.
  • The renewed calls stem from Battlefront 2’s player count climbing sharply on Steam to nearly 9,300 concurrent users, driven by Andor’s second season finale and recent Star Wars events.
  • Battlefront 2 originally launched in 2017 amid heavy loot box controversy but has since improved its reputation despite no ongoing support from developer DICE, which now focuses on Battlefield 6.
  • Ben Amor, who describes himself as a veteran player since the launch of Battlefront 2 and has logged 469 hours on the game, expressed on Instagram his strong desire for a new installment, urging Star Wars to release Battlefront 3 as soon as possible.
  • Despite fan demand and industry interest, EA reportedly rejected DICE’s pitch for Battlefront 3 citing high licensing costs, suggesting no new title is expected soon.
