20 Most Outlandish Star Wars: The Force Awakens Rumours

18. Star Wars: Battlefront Crossover

Though it was initially reported that Star Wars: Battlefront would have no ties to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, a more recent rumour has surfaced which indicates otherwise. The game will still be set during the events of the original trilogy, but the new Republic is said to be a big part of the game, something the movie will apparently/obviously expand upon. This doesn't sound like a particularly major crossover, but it does seem like there's a chance that the events of the game could go past Return Of The Jedi, showing players how the new Republic was formed following the fall of the Emperor and Darth Vader. This makes sense, especially as everything now released is said to be officially part of the new Star Wars canon.
