The developer, who collaborated in the development of Star Wars: Battlefront 2, also prepares an unpublished video game.
Star Wars week has arrived for movie lovers, but in video games, the saga created by George Lucas returned early, with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. About to release the last movie, Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, Electronic Arts has talked about the future of the saga. He has done it in GamesIndustry and in the mouth of Patrick Klaus, general manager of EA Motive, who has described the new title of the franchise as "a very unique Star Wars experience".
They develop an original game
Of course, he has not given more details in this regard, although he has confirmed that the study works on a new intellectual property, designed by a new team. Klaus, who left EA after almost a decade at the company, returned when Jade Raymond, the until then general manager of Motive, decided to leave the company to join Google in his star project dedicated to video games, Stadia. According to the manager, the company has changed over the years.
"It feels like a different company, a company that is much more focused on quality," he said. "This is partly one of the reasons I was excited to return." According to his words, the “number one” priority is to make great games, something to which Electronic Arts has contributed, as they have encouraged “talent in the studio to play an important role in creating amazing games for EA "
For Klaus, "they are different times, with different leaders and a different message." That feeling, he says, is reinforced daily, since in conversations and discussions they have, quality is perceived as an absolute priority.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the latest Electronic Arts game based on the galactic saga. It has been developed by Respawn Entertainment, creators of Apex Legends and Titanfall, with the idea that it is a title focused exclusively on history and gameplay for a single player.
