Former Uncharted Creative Director Amy Hennig and her co-writer Todd Stashwick are currently doing research for their new Star Wars game at the Skywalker Ranch, and also revealed that Dead Space 3's Creative Director is on board.
The director of the infamously scrapped Star Wars 1313 has joined the team working on Amy Hennig's upcoming Star Wars game at Skydance New Media.
I was at the announcement for it at E3. They had us in a side hall conference room that was just a couple rows of benches. When the gameplay and video demo started the side walls looked like windows that showed us dropping down levels in our ship to 1313.
Glad he’s onboard, 1313 was so ahead of its time from what was shown. This bodes well for her game. Looking forward to what they are cooking up.
After 1313 cancellation and the new trilogy I think it's safe to say Disney was the worst thing that could have happened to star wars
Well I hope the protagonist is not an angry, bitter woman, who is mad at the world and despises the need for men, or men themselves.
At today's Disney & Marvel Games Showcase, a new Captain America game was unveiled along with a short teaser, and it features Black Panther, too.
Meh . Captain America is boring and I know little of Black Panther besides the movie .
This is great, it’s like the comics where Cap ran into the Black Panther of that time period before he was frozen
Nick Fury was also in it, I’m hoping it’s the original Nick Fury not the Samuel Jackson lookalike he then played in the films
Well that was something
Kind of
I’m talking about the original before the Ultimate version
The one who was in the Howling Commandos and because he slowly ages then ran Shield in the present

Could you imagine if David Hasshoff showed up in an upcoming Avengers movie as Nick Fury? He would say: “What are you staring at? I am the original.” The crowd would be shock with laughs lol 😂
Looks like it's a WW2 game, so won't be Black Panther from the movies anyway but one of his ancestors.
It's in the title of the article, Amy Hennig is making the game thus it's Amy Hennig's studio Skydance New Media making it.
Wasn't there a recent announcement about them also doing a star wars game? Disney must have a lot of faith in this new studio
Hmm, so you will play as 4 different characters with 4 different play styles in world war 2. I’m pretty tired of games set in world war 2 but seems like the popular set piece to always go to.
It will be sort of interesting to see the narrative of The Black Panther(tachakka I am presuming) who always seemed to be uninterested in that time and who did cross paths with Capt.

Amy Hennig is one of the prominent women in gaming, with franchises like Uncharted and Legacy of Kain demonstrating her knack for storytelling.
Lol....? Next you'll be saying Ken Levine is one of the men who's most influential..
Thing is, there are not a lot of women that were really influential for the video game industry, that's why Amy might be one of the most influential ones. ..A title that means basically..nothing.
At the geniuses that disliked my comment..name even 5 truly influential women in the video game business.
Roberta Williams was very influential, she and her husband have a new game coming out this fall, a remake actually of Colossal Cave 😊
You’re on a website full of incels who get triggered when you mention anything to do with women or any minority. Of course you’re going to get downvoted. I fully expect it too.
Clearly she is an extremely talented writer and director and I am really grateful to her for her work bringing my favourite game series to life with Uncharted.
Personally though, I think I prefer the more grounded storytelling with Uncharted 4 than the more supernatural story beats in the earlier titles.
It's cool that she gets the recognition she does I think, there are not all that many devs who's name become well known to its audience so I think that says a lot about how talented she must be.
Henning wrote Uncharted 4. Druckamann then came in and rewrote her story to accommodate all the woke feminist stuff.
What woke, feminist stuff are you referring to squire, I can't say i noticed anything other than awesome storytelling, characters and action in the five or six times I have played through it.
"What woke, feminist stuff are you referring to"
Drake getting beat up and humiliated by the Strong Whamen of Color™;
Elena being a better Crash Bandicoot player than Drake because we all know girls are better gamers;
Drake and Elena go adventuring together for the first time in ages and the whole time Drake gets an ear beating about how she can take care of herself and she don't need no mans;
The old adventurer who's house Drake bros snuck into got gender-swapped;
Drake's son got gender-swapped;
I can go on and on but it ain't worth my time as you are willfully blind, squire.
Man i dont know what ur smoking but there is thousands of games movies and tv show where women kick men asses and even save the world, tomb raider, bayonetta, chun li, stranger things, star wars, alien, terminator, kill bill, batman, james bond, final fantasy, fighting games, mulan and alot more, man if uncharted 4 women kicking drake’s ass bothered you, you really need to check your mental health coz when true woke games arrived you will be in a dark place
Imagine being so fragile that you are intimidate and offended by issues that exist completely in your own imagination.
There are a million and one liberties taken with respect to 'realism' in Uncharted 4, but the ones that you get hung up on are that drake gets his arse handed to him by an absolute badass. A badass whose character happens to be a woman, even though she was created as someone who has been exposed to combat and the mercenary trade her whole life.
How can anyone watch that scene where Nathan and Elaine are in their living room, and seeing how well written and acted that scene is, the emotion you feel from Nate longingly looking at the picture of the forest, the love for each other they clearly hold, and your only take away is that 'men are better at games that women'. Are you that pathetic, seriously?
Elena was pissed at Nathan for lying to her, nothing more, and there are scenes where they clearly express and equal respect for just how capable they both are at kicking butt.
Dude, you need help!
Wow, I really opened up a can of worms here, lmao.
Fact is, self-proclaimed feminist agenda pushing Anita Sarkeesian fanboy Neil Cuckmann came in and wrote all of that crap into the game, and Amy Hennig left the company right afterwards.
WTH are you talking about? UC4 was not a woke at all. Troll much? Or are you chasing the bandwagon that painted TLOU2 as woke propaganda? Of which, it was a far cry from being woke... a few mentions here and there does not constitute as woke.
Umm no? She was gone. She left at the start of tlou's concept art. She was rightfully pushed out by druckman and straley.
Funny thing..that article describes what Amy worked on, but it does not deliver even one example of how her work has influenced other devs or mention any devs who expressed that they were influenced by anything related to Amy Hennig. Bad article is..bad.
Man, those were the glory days. Amy Hennig and Bruce Straley in ND, their games defined the PS3 era.
This game is going to be fun:)
I really can't wait for this :)
However...Dead Space 3's Creative Director...you mean the one which most likely contributed to the downfall of Dead Space :|
I wonder if it's going to have anything to do with Star Wars 1313. I'd find it very ironic, that the ex-Naughty Dog people were working on reviving a supposedly cancelled Uncharted-esque game.
This is old news. Hennig has been on the Star Wars project since March.
I don't like Amy Henning. She done F'd up Uncharted 3.
