Small Update on the Status of Visceral’s Untitled Star Wars Game.

unchartedBack in April 2014, Visceral Games (Dead Space games) Vice President Steve Papoutsis announced that former Naughty Dog (Uncharted games) employee Amy Hennig, has been appointed as the creative director for EA’s upcoming, unannounced Star Wars game project. The only other thing we know about this project is that American film and TV actor and writer Todd Stashwick has signed on to co-write the game alongside Amy Hennig. Now in a series of Tweets they both expressed their optimism and enthusiasm for the upcoming project…

 

 

Here’s what Amy and Todd shared on Twitter (via thegamescabin):

 

 

 

 

 

The Uncharted series is one of top rated video game franchise of all time. Last year, game studio Naughty Dog confirmed that Stashwick, best known for his role of Dale Malloy on the TV series The Riches, was doing voice-over work for its new Uncharted game, which ex-Naughty Dog creative director Amy Hennig was also working on before she joined Visceral Games.

 

Currently, there is not much details about Visceral’s new project. Maybe first they want to finish Battlefied: Hardline (due for release on March 17, 2015). So we can definitely expect more info on the project after that date.

    My excitement for this project is second only to TFA. I loved the dead space franchise and uncharted so let’s see what this game is about.at this point it can be about anything.

    Dead space series are really good, if they pool off something similar with Star wars, it will be incredible!…

    Apart from the movies themselves, I’m more of SW gamer.
    SW Battlefront looks ok but really is just the typical BF/fps experience just with a coat of SW paint. Nothing new to see here folks.
    However, here’s hoping this new title lives up though, but if it is in the same vein as Uncharted, I’ll be very disappointed.
    Uncharted was alright but got repetitive real fast.
    I’m hoping this new game, and hopefully those to come will be more immersive into this new canon universe like the great SW games of the past; kotor, jedi outcat, etc.

    I would desperately like to see a resurgence of ‘good’ Star Wars games, specifically based on the new movies. Hopefully this game won’t be your run of the mill, ‘You’ve seen the movie, now play the game!’ type of garbage…

    (Please, please, PLEASE release a new flight sim game like x-wing alliance!)

      Exactly.
      Have a look at the newest eagerly awaiting game of 2015,
      No Man’s Sky.
      Can you imagine a SW game like that. Epic.

      There’s no way to make a game directly based on a movie, rush it in time for the film’s release, and expect it to be good and polished. EA has said as much.

      You’re much better off doing your own thing. Compare the quality of the game they made for Batman Begins to the games in the Arkham series.

      That’s why I’m glad they’re starting on something like DICE’s take on Battlefront – it celebrates the whole of Star Wars instead of focusing on the newest movie. They have everything they needed to know about the previous six movies and enough about the seventh to make a game that can stand on its own.

    I really want to see a star wars adventure game where you play as a jedi but can use weapons too and with dark or light side decisions like in the kotor games

    I would want something more akin to the Jedi Knight Series (man how i loved those games so long ago).

    Absolutely! Jedi Knight and Jedi Academy are 2 games that stand out for me..

    I just wish they’d at least make dark forces and jedi knight cannon. Kyle Katarn is too awesome to not be cannon in some way damn it!

      Kyle Katarn is probably the best Star Wars character to have come from a game. Also, lightsaber action was awesome. I remember playing Jedi Academy/Outcast and I still think it’s better than Force Unleashed in terms of combat even though the Jedi Knight series ended at around 2003

    GOD….Please let them make a good SW game for a fucking change…, because with the exception of KOTOR they have all been a complete Failure since Jedi knight and Jedi Academy.

    Star Wars battlefront 2 = end of an era.

    Please restart that area and remake the Jedi knight series even though it’s non canon. Rosh Penin in HD= TOUGH
