Rebellion Developments was thought to have created a Battlefront III in 2008, but instead they released Star Wars: Battlefront: Elite Squadron, the fourth installment in the series. However, the company could not support the game due to the loss of an employee and other concurrent projects going on at the time. The game was in production with Free Radical Design after learning that LucasArts made no comments or mentions of a third Battlefront installment. After the release of Star Wars: Battlefront II, the game (as Star Wars: Battlefront III) was rumored to be released multiple times.
