Respawn Entertaining Working on New Star Wars Title

Respawn Entertainment, the developer company behind Titanfall, is working on a new Star Wars video game, as the studio announced. Stig Asmussen, God of War’s game director, describes the new project as a “third-person action/adventure game” and is part of the agreement between publisher Electronic Arts and Lucasfilm about publishing titles that revolve around the Star Wars franchise. The studio promised to show the necessary respect to the Star Wars legacy, which gives its fans a reason to expect high quality content accompanied by innovating mechanisms.

Respawn is currently one of the teams that develop Star Wars video games on behalf of EA, including Visceral Games, DICE, Capital Games, BioWare and Motive. In his announcement in EA’s official website, chief executive vice-president Patrick Söderlund noted that there will be more information revealed regarding Visceral’s and Motive’s games, soon. Söderlund also stated:

Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with Vince Zampella and his group. Their obsession with making games that feel amazing has helped make Titanfall one of the most successful new game launches of this generation. And now, with a new team led by Stig Asmussen, we get to see what they can do when you combine that great attention to gameplay with the power of Star Wars.

Now, we expect to find out more about the new Star Wars game in this year’s E3, so stay tuned!
