As the good reviews continue to roll in for Lego Star Wars and fans wait for the Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi show next month, Lucasfilm Games announced a new game.
It'll be a collaborative effort between Lucasfilm Games and Skydance New Media. The project will feature a "narrative-driven, action-adventure game featuring an original story in the Staw Wars galaxy."
Amy Henning will head the project for Skydance New Media, looking to build on her blockbuster success of Uncharted, Legacy of Kain and Daxter.
"I've often described how seeing Star Wars in 1977 essentially rewired my 12-year-old brain, shaping my creative life and future indelibly," said Hennig, president, Skydance New Media. "I'm elated to be working with Lucasfilm Games again to tell interactive stories in this galaxy that I love."
"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," said Douglas Reilly, vice president, Lucasfilm Games. "Their vision for making narrative driven and engaging interactive entertainment makes this collaboration very exciting. 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."
This is another home run for Skydance, who announced in late 2021 a partnership with Marvel entertainment to create a brand new game featuring popular characters and an original storyline.
