Report: Star Wars Battlefront Website Source Code Points To November Release
As the Disney Empire ramps up to the December 18 release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fans will have several options for delving into the Star Wars universe in anticipation, including the return of Battlefront.
According to information allegedly pulled from the game's official website on the eve of the new trailer, the DICE-developed multiplayer shooter is slated for a November 17 release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. We have reached out to Electronic Arts to comment on whether or not this release date is accurate.
To see the game in action, tune into the Star Wars Celebration panel hosted by Electronic Arts tomorrow at 12:30PM CT or visit the official homepage right after.

Our Take
Given that Battlefront coming out a full month before the new film, we don't expect the game to have many art assets or locations from the film (though an expansion pack timed around the film's launch would certainly make sense).
