Star Wars Battlefront fans are preparing to send a powerful message to EA on May 24. YouTube content creator Bombastic and the game's community are organizing a massive play session for Star Wars Battlefront 2 across all platforms. The goal? To push the active player count to unprecedented levels and demonstrate the community's strong interest in a potential Star Wars Battlefront 3.

Throughout May, Star Wars Battlefront 2 has experienced a remarkable resurgence on Steam and consoles. The game has seen some of its highest player counts since January 2021, sparking renewed discussions about a possible third installment in the series.

The recent May the 4th celebrations brought significant attention to the Star Wars franchise, with major announcements, the premiere of Andor's second season, and theatrical re-releases. This excitement has translated into increased activity in Star Wars Battlefront 2, despite some challenges with hackers. The community remains passionate, using this momentum to advocate for Star Wars Battlefront 3.

YouTube creator Bombastic is spearheading the movement, calling on Star Wars fans worldwide to join Star Wars Battlefront 2 on May 24. He believes that significant player engagement nearly eight years after the game's release could send a strong message to EA and DICE about the demand for Star Wars Battlefront 3. The community has been vocal across social media platforms, including in the comments section of the latest Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer.

Bombastic and Star Wars fans plan to play Star Wars Battlefront 2 simultaneously on May 24 across all platforms.

If successful, this coordinated effort could create enough momentum to spark serious discussions about Star Wars Battlefront 3. However, it's important to note that DICE and other EA developers are currently focused on the next Battlefield title, which might delay any potential Battlefront sequel.

Despite this, the community remains hopeful. The sustained player activity could help Star Wars Battlefront 2 maintain a healthy player base while fans await the 2026 release of The Mandalorian & Grogu film. Additionally, an ongoing petition for Star Wars Battlefront 3 continues to gain signatures, providing another avenue for fans to express their desire for a new game.
