picked up a rumor that AMD is going to bundle the new Star Wars Battlefront game with its high-end GPUs this summer. The deal will likely involve the Radeon Fury lineup and probably the Radeon R9 390X and some cards below that too.
Star Wars Battlefront comes on November 17th and it is most likely that AMD will simply give you a code and that you will get the game when it becomes available. This is something that we saw with the Half Life 2 bundle and Battlefield 4 bundle. As far as we can recall, both promotions worked quite well.
We would not be surprise to see an official announcement on the June 16th gaming event that AMD is putting together on the sidelines of the E3 trade show. Fiji XT performance look decent compared to the Titan X $999 and Geforce GTX 980 TI $649 card. AMD used to target $849 as a suggest retail price for the card but there is a high chance that AMD might do some last minute price adjustment before the card gets to channel.
