EA Play Live 2021 is just around the corner, but don’t expect to see any new Star Wars games there. The confirmation came yesterday through the official EA Star Wars Twitter account, though the message also hints at some kind of news coming next year.
Even though the exclusivity deal between Electronic Arts and Disney for Star Wars games has expired, EA clearly intends to continue developing titles in the beloved sci-fantasy universe created by George Lucas. Respawn’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was a resounding success, after all; the game recently got a proper enhancement for next-generation consoles, but fans are mostly focused on any news about the inevitable sequel.
EA Play Live 2021 will air on July 22nd at 10:00 am PT / 7:00 pm CET. The showcase won’t include any BioWare news about Dragon Age or Mass Effect either, but we will get more information on highly anticipated games like Battlefield 2042 (with the reveal of the game mode developed by DICE LA, recently rebranded to Ripple Effect Studios) and existing updates for the ever-popular Apex Legends.
Last but not least, rumors abound regarding a Dead Space remake, reportedly in development at EA Motive. It isn’t clear yet if that will be shown at EA Play Live 2021, though.
