Star Wars Game By Amy Hennig & Jade Raymond A Few Years Out, Says EA

The new Star Wars game by Amy Henning (Visceral Games) and Jade Raymond (Motive Studios) is a few years out, said EA's Blake Jorgensen.

[ccgr]

Curious how it will turn out.

[DarthZoolu]

Jade is the most overrated person in the industry.

[BluFish]

Right? Cause she's an attractive woman.

Your insecurities are showing.

[DarthZoolu]

No because Ass Creed sucks!

[Spenok]

With Amy Hennig behind the wheel I have no doubts it's story will be amazing. Jade Raymond will help the gameplay aspects of it as well. Those two together should make this an awesome experience. I'm REALLY hoping for an open world game.

[Imp0ssibl3]

Really? Looks like I have no choice but to play SWTOR to get some stories from a galaxy far, far away...

[Festano]

It's a pretty good game if you take it as a single player thing rather than MMORPG

[Spenok]

That's exactly what I'm doing, and I'm enjoying it.

[Ashlen]

I'm not looking forward to buying it (EA) but I am interested to see what it turns out to be.

[crazychris4124]

Please be 1313

[Alexious]

Doubtful. Amy Henning and Jade Raymond wouldn't want to pick up where others have left, it's more likely they'll create something brand new, which is why it's taking a while.

[AudioEppa]

Here comes Star Wars 2121!

This right here is why I'm sure this generation has some long legs on it when we still have projects, big projects in the works.

[ninsigma]

Naaaah unfortunately not. They're gonna use some assets from it but I think that's about it.

[DeadlyFire]

Star Wars 1313 was a mere concept Tech demo. It never got very far. It could easily be something very very similar.

[skulz7]

Damn this is the one unannounced title I'm really looking forward to - a modern day star wars RPG. I bet it will either be KOTOR 3 or 1313

[Mega24]

I don't think Bioware would like others touching their stuff. Also, don't remember where it was that I read something like this (I think it was a tweet rumor), but Visceral is working an a RPG/Adventure Star Wars game, supposed to released around Episode 8.

[Alexious]

Episode VIII will release in Summer 2017 if I'm not mistaken, so I doubt Visceral can make it if their game is "a few years out" from now.

[Benoski]

Episode 8 got delayed to December last week, Alexious.

[Alexious]

@Benoski Damn...Didn't know about that.

[Spenok]

Viceral is confirmed to be working on an open world Star Wars RPG just so you know. No rumors.

[_-EDMIX-_]

"a modern day star wars RPG" It won't be that. Bioware is already working on a Star Wars title.

Visceral likely is working on action adventure or even horror Star Wars title.

[Benoski]

Didn't EA say they planned to release a Star Wars game every year?

Let's look at it this this:

- Visceral's game is at least a few years away.

- BioWare is busy on Mass Effect: Andromeda

- DICE have their hands full with Mirror's Edge, Battlefield and Battlefront DLC.

If EA still has a SW game to release this year, then what on Earth could it be?

[Imp0ssibl3]

I don't have the foggiest. Unless they're hiding a studio somewhere, not sure how they're going to do it...

[rainslacker]

It could be developed by one of their in house developers, but overseen by one of their bigger developers like Bioware or a studio of that stature.

In house studios can be just as good, it just needs a good director, and the resources of the publisher to make a good game. If this happens, expect it to be marketed as one of their major studio's games though.

[veicht]

Probably another disappointing mobile game.

[_-EDMIX-_]

I mean, that is a good guess, but Bioware is more then 1 single team.

To my understanding they've been working on a new IP and are confirmed to be making a Star Wars game. So the new IP could be that or they could be making many games.

ie new IP, Star Wars and Mass Effect.

Again...Bioware isn't merely 1 single team, same goes for DICE.

You must consider that the team at DICE that did Star Wars Battlefront is likely make its sequel right now.

The whole entire team isn't making DLC.

Consider.....BF4 is still getting DLC, how can DICE make Star Wars, new Battlefield and Mirror Edge and still be making BF4 DLC?

So with that logic, I wouldn't really count Star Wars DLC as something so demanding that it overrides a whole game. They don't dedicate THAT much of their team to post launch content.

That new IP they were working on for a while, could legit be KOTOR3 and they likely didn't want to tell folks it was a Star Wars game.

Bioware to my understanding has more developers then even DICE does, they can work on many projects.

[Festano]

Yeah, Bioware isn't one team. But they have one team on SWTOR, one on Dragon Age and another on Mass Effect.

They don't have any free teams to work on KOTOR 3, if that's what you're thinking...Sadly.

[DeadlyFire]

Sure they have 3 studios at Bioware, but also some different teams at each one Festo. Bioware Austin has caned one new ip, but they already have something in the works. It is the SWTOR studio.

Battlefront is very likely to release every other year. 2017 likely, Makes Visceral's title 2018 likely.

EA has Mass Effect, Battlefield, Mirrors Edge, Titanfall 2 news for 2016. Couple other things.

If there is a Star Wars title in 2016 it could be something like Rogue Squadron to pair up with Rogue One film maybe? Or well it could be a lesser title. Kinda like that 2nd Star Wars MMO they tried and it died. Either way EA has a few teams that could be making something. E3 is likely to have whatever they are working on. Don't know if they have a new star wars title.

[Khaotic]

Your stalker is at it again. Its actually kinda creepy someone dedicates that much to just follow your comments to disagree. Serial Killer?

[_-EDMIX-_]

@fes- Bioware currently as a new IP in development we don't actually know how much of their team is allocated to unknown projects

@khao- creepy and sad

[DeadlyFire]

Hmm.. Is Jade's studio EA property?

I am thinking they aim smaller scale Star Wars this year. They could throw together a Rogue Squadron game based on some modified Battlefront assets to release around the Rogue One film maybe... That or announce a new era Star Wars MMO....Everything else seems unlikely.

[Alexious]

Jade's studio is working on a new AC-like game (in early stages) and helping Visceral Games with the Star Wars title. Nothing more than that.

[Austin48]

Watch EA force these 2 legends too make a half a** game with only a online mode btw battlefront says hi to that pfft.

[_-EDMIX-_]

Bioware making another Star Wars MMO would be a moot point. It would be online.

I don't see KOTOR3 if they have Bioware making a stand alone RPG as being online only.

Is Mass Effect?

Is Mirrors Edge Catalyst? I mean you do know that Battlefront mostly online only due to the nature of the concept right?

DICE are actually adding offline private matches too.

Its not due to EA merely making it so, its likely do to the concept of the game.

I mean...consider many of their games are not that. Dragon Age 3 isn't that, Mass Effect 4...isn't that, Mirror's Edge Catalyst....isn't that, so I have no clue why you assumed all titles would be that.

Use some serious logic bud, many examples show thats not the case and unlikely.

[just-joe]

Then it might be worth playing.

[Miacosa]

That's disappointing I thought for sure we would see a game trailer and or possibly gameplay at this year's E3.

[Alexious]

Well, we might still get a trailer and some details.

[kotaku77]

This are very talented women in a male dominated media, we need more like them

[Festano]

They're great for sure. Jade also looks great, which really doesn't hurt :)

[mochachino]

Looking forward to what they come up with.

[SynestheticRoar]

Oh my she looks like a old man. Damn.
