When LucasArts terminated their contract with Free Radical Design (nowadays known as Crytek UK), the studio was not only working on Star Wars Battlefront III and Time Splitters 4. Instead, the company started the pre-production of another Star Wars Battlefront game.
As the status of Star Wars Battlefront III (Free Radical version) is currently unknown, we do not expect any news about a fourth SW Battlefront game in the near future.
Thanks to Hey Hey.

LucasArts gives us the shitfest game that Was Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings… a total failure, and they pass on giving us a cash cow game like SWBF 3?
Someone needs to get their head out of their ass and wake the hell up.

The status of Battlefront III isn’t unknown, it was cancelled a year ago. Ironically one of the things that contributed to the cancellation was Battlefront IV. Once Free Radical had the contract they took their eye off the prize so to speak and lost focus on BF3, resulting in missed milestone, poor work, and eventually its cancellation.

How the heck can they jump from BF II to BF IV?
That’s really teaching kids to count.
Unless Elite Squadron is BF III?

Well, BFIII was in development by Free Radical, it looked like a fun game so probably they though that they had a good chance to pitch for the 4th one too (even if BFIII was still not completed). In the end BFIII was cancelled and so BFIV was lost too.

Sorry for idiotic question, but this is only a console exclusive?
If it is, I’m going to jump off a cliff…

they should make a battle front that takes place during the new republic.. after Darth Vader and Lord Sidius and bring us into the story of after the movies. like with luke skywalker and his relatives and all the new jedi most havent heard of.
