EA has announced that the Amy Hennig-directed Visceral Games Star Wars title will be refocused and developed by other EA studios while Visceral Games closes down.
Earlier this year, Motive merged with BioWare Montreal and has been working on development alongside other EA studios for this year’s Star Wars release Star Wars Battlefront II.
Despite the move away from a story-based, linear game, Soderlund says “We will maintain the stunning visuals, authenticity in the Star Wars universe, and focus on bringing a Star Wars story to life.”
