New Star Wars game confirmed

Skydance New Media, in partnership with Lucasfilm Games, has announced the development of an action-adventure game set within the Star Wars galaxy.

It is unclear what era of the Star Wars saga the game will focus on or whether we’ll see familiar characters. There was no mention of an expected release date either.

We do know that the game will feature an original story, and it will be developed by the writer and director behind the Uncharted series, Amy Henning.

This is Henning’s second chance at a Star Wars game, as her first was cancelled mid-development back in 2019 by Electronic Arts whilst she was working with EA-owned Visceral Games.

Skydance New Media was formed later that year and Henning was picked to head up this new division of Skydance Media.

“I’m elated to be working with Lucasfilm Games again to tell interactive stories in this galaxy that I love,” said Henning.

Lucasfilm Games VP Douglas Reilly added, “We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working again with Amy. She and the Skydance New Media team have the talent and ambition to create a unique Star Wars adventure.”

“We’re working hard with their team of experienced and talented developers, and we’re looking forward to sharing more with Star Wars fans when the time is right.”
