Day_Star got a reaction from Trippik in Disney and Lucasfilm may be looking to replace EA
If rumors are to be believed Disney and Lucasfilm have reached out to Activision and Ubisoft about producing future Star Wars games. Personally, I am not surprised by this change as it is safe to say that EA's Battlefront 2 was a PR nightmare for both companies, and they would rather not repeat the experience.

Day_Star reacted to Eroda in Disney and Lucasfilm may be looking to replace EA
there is always exit clauses like if EA damages the starwars brand permenently etc disney can pull the plug on that exclusivity( disney would not sign away the game rights to star wars for 10 years with no way out that costs them nothing they are simply too big to not be getting the good end of the deal). there will be multiple ways for disney to wiggle their way out of that deal. a change of ownership is probably one of those clauses. and yes EA paid alot of money but i doubt it was all up front its probably a set rate per game or year
