While it won’t be the focus, Star Wars will be a part of EA’s gamescom livestream on Tuesday.

EA’s livestream, which actually takes place a couple of days before gamescom officially starts, will occur 7:15 p.m. CET / 1:15 p.m. ET / 10:15 a.m. PT on Tuesday, August 16 at live.ea.com.

The emphasis of the stream will be on FIFA 17, Titanfall 2 and Battlefield 1. However, according to EA’s website, there’ll be “new insights into […] our EA Star Wars franchises.” The site further promises “[a] look into our Star Wars™ games.”

EA also started a countdown to the livestream on the Play 2016 section of their site.

Held in Cologne, Germany, gamescom is in its eighth year and will run from August 18-21. EA estimates that roughly 340,000 people will attend the trade fair.

While the true extent of Star Wars’ inclusion in the livestream is unknown, hopefully we’ll get another glimpse of Battlefront’s upcoming Death Star DLC, or perhaps some more info on EA’s future Star Wars projects.
