EA has suggested it’s not planning to reveal any new Star Wars games until 2022

EA has suggested that it won’t announce any new Star Wars games until 2022.

The company said on Thursday that it’s not planning to reveal any new Star Wars games at its EA Play Live showcase next week, but teased announcements for next year.

“We won’t be showing any new Star Wars games at EA Play Live on July 22nd…but all of us look forward to celebrating with you next year when we share our vision for the Galaxy far, far away!”

EA Play Live will last for 40 minutes and focus on titles “coming out soon” including Battlefield 2042, Lost in Random and “a couple other games”.

BioWare, which will launch a new Star Wars: The Old Republic expansion this year to mark the 10th anniversary of the MMO, has also said it won’t be showing Mass Effect 4 or Dragon Age 4 at EA Play Live.
