Much like a new cinematic instalment from year to year, Star Wars games have been inevitable on every gaming platform known to Wookiee and human alike.

Since EA, the dark lord of video games themselves, took over the rights in the post-Lucas era we’ve all but seen a couple cancellations, some phone games and the embarrassing return of Battlefront. You can almost see Activision is Palpatine in this scenario, having the fleet on the other side of Disney, just waiting for EA to screw up so badly that they can swoop in to grab the license - much like they juggled the Bond one back in the day.
