The rumours are true: David Cage is working on a Star Wars game. Star Wars Eclipse has just been revealed at The Game Awards, a꧅longside a glossy c🥂inematic trailer.
The developer behind Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human is helming this ambitious project, in its fi꧂rst venture into the Star Wars franchise.
From what we can see, it w♍ill be set in the prequel era of films, so just before Darth Vader sets the galaxy down its dark path.
This gives t🌸he game a rich time period to explore. Far from the wild west we see in later periods, we see bustling cities and a strong Jedi Order.
When the repor🐠ts first came out that Quantic Dream is helming a Star Wars project, opinions were certainly mixed. Many felt that the studio is a poor choice for a Star Wars game, given its previous work on less combat orientated 🉐games. True enough, this trailer definitely gives off the impression that this will be more character-driven. Although we get the mandatory shot of a lightsaber fight.
We have no gameplay to work from, but the trailer at least gives us an idea of the vibe Cage is going for. We also don't have a launch window, or even a confirmation of what platforms it will be on.
