LucasFilm Announces New Star Wars Game From Uncharted Director

It's always a good day when we get an announcement of a new Star Wars game, and it's especially exciting when that Star Wars game is being helmed by the creator of the classic PlayStation action-adventure series, Uncharted!

Amy Hennig's Skydance New Media is working on the game, which is described as “a richly cinematic action-adventure game featuring an original story in the legendary Star Wars galaxy.”

Here's what Henning had to say in a press release (via Deadline):

“I’ve often described how seeing Star Wars in 1977 essentially rewired my 12-year-old brain, shaping my creative life and future indelibly. I’m elated to be working with Lucasfilm Games again to tell interactive stories in this galaxy that I love.”

As you may recall, Henning was previously working on a Star Wars game known as Project Ragtag at Visceral Games before EA decided to shut the studio (and ultimately the project) down, with Henning leaving EA in 2018.

Skydance New Media isn't just working on this Star Wars game, but also a Marvel action-adventure game announced last year. Further details have yet to be revealed, so we're keeping our fingers crossed for an Xbox release.
