Battlefront 2 was just announced for 2017, and will evidently include ST-era content:

Yeah, I saw that the other day. Yearly-releases don’t give me much hope for the franchise, unless the lack of content (and frankly gameplay) in the current iteration was due to restrictions and it being more of a proof-of-concept than an actual game.
I’ll keep an eye on it. Maybe they’ll learn from the first one.
It’s not yearly though? Battlefront 2 will come out two years after the first. This really shouldn’t be a surprise anyway with Episode VIII coming next year.
