The newest Star Wars video game is not too far away.Wikipedia

For the gamers who are eagerly awaiting the release of Star Wars Battlefront 3, it seems that the game may likely come out by the Winter of 2015. Apparently rumored plans are still the same that the game would debut in December, the same time that Disney's Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits the big screens.

For now, that is all folks can look forward to although the latest word out is that the game will first come out on the Xbox One via EA Access. This was announced via Twitter courtesy of Microsoft game marketing lead Aaron Greenberg.

The Xbox One hasn't exactly come up to par with Sony's PS4, something many consumers prefer right now due to better graphics and features. Lack of key features and of course the pricing also had something to do with it although there are now special deals for the Xbox console in the US and the UK.

But could this bit of news were the Star Wars Battlefront 3 will first come live on the Xbox One sales become leverage? In a way it could be it may all hinge on further details that come with it, something which is apparently kept under wraps for now.

EA Access is only available on the Xbox One where gamers would need to subscribe to gain access to games stacked at the EA Vault. The subscription rate is $4.99 a month where subscribers get the chance to play games five days before they are actually released.

From the looks of it, EA Access subscription should skyrocket by December, the expected month of release of Star Wars: Battlefront 3.

And on that thought and assuming that Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens as scheduled on December 18, 2015, , would it be safe to say that gamers can start playing the game by December 13 at the earliest on the Xbox One?
