It also sounds like it might be the first of a new series of games based in this galaxy far, far away. EA's CFO Blake Jorgensen has said that the company has just kicked off a 10 year licensing deal with Disney which will see them working on titles in the Star Wars universe for some time yet.

"We struck a licensing deal with Disney a few years back that's almost ten years in length. The game that comes out tomorrow, Star Wars Battlefront, is a traditional first-person style shooter game. Our goal is to make future Battlefront games as well as other style games around the Star Wars franchise, both on mobile as well as console and PC. It's a huge opportunity for us."
