Downright chatty lately, Jeff Grubb recently returned to Quantic Dream’s next game. The French developer, who has opened a new studio in Canada, seems to be hard at work on a Star Wars title. And according to the Venture Beat reporter, this new production could be released before the end of the year under the title Star Wars: Eclipse.
Rumors have been circulating since September. Multiple sources say Quantic Dream and Disney have reached an agreement to develop a new game. This would be several years in development and would be based on an original story. And if nothing has been officially announced yet, that could change soon, according to Jeff Grubb.
In one recently Podcastthe journalist mentions that the game is ready to be announced. In his opinion, a presentation with two possible dates could take place before the end of the year: the Game Awards or Disney’s “Bring Home the Bounty” campaign. If the world premiere cannot be missed during the ceremony organized by Geoff Keighley, a Star Wars game must also be officially unveiled around December 14th. It is therefore difficult to say at which event this inevitably much-anticipated announcement could take place.
In terms of content, Jeff Grubb has little information. According to its sources, the Star Wars Eclipse adventure would take place two hundred before the time of the movies, or in the middle of the High Republic era. A time that is discussed in Star Wars novels in particular and is described as the golden age of the Jedi. What details of the story will this new game tell? This is still an absolute mystery.
So it remains to be patient and hope for an announcement worthy of a license. Star Wars is currently experiencing several customization projects and a new one Jedi Fallen Order is also in development. So the fans have something to celebrate!
