(Image credit: Quantic Dream, Lucasfilm Games) What's so controversial about Quantic Dream?Īnd here we come to the Ortolan in the room. A new threat discovered in the Outer Rim? Only time will tell. We also see a whole fleet of the Trade Federation's droid-crewed ships involved in a battle with a mysterious new faction with their own capital ships, fighters, and (as one trailer shot shows) a large terrestrial army.
We also see the return of the Neimoidians, the species most closely associated with the Trade Federation, the faction that sparked the conflict leading to the fall of the Republic. Everyone's favorite old sponge, Yoda, is seen staring pensively out a window in the trailer. Ripe territory for Quantic Dream to come up with all-new worlds, races and problems that won't mess with existing continuity and canon too much. The official Eclipse site mentions that at least part of the game is set in the Outer Rim, the largely uncharted part of the galaxy where anything goes. Of course, you know what they say about pride and falls they land you in the garbage compactor of history. A golden age where everything in the galaxy seemed (relatively) idyllic, the Jedi were in control and nobody was particularly worried about the Sith anymore. The two hundred years or so before Emperor Palpatine went and ruined everything. As of February 2022, there were 59 vacancies in Paris and 4 in Montreal.Ī long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, of course. At the time of his Twitter post in December 2021, he pointed out that Quantic Dream had over 60 job openings at its Paris studio and 9 in Montreal. Henderson also claims Eclipse is three to four years away from release at minimum.

While any unsourced claims should be taken with a pinch of salt, prolific industry leaker and freelance games journalist Tom Henderson claimed to have an inside line on Eclipse's production, and shared a few tidbits via Twitter, including mention that the game will run on Quantic Dream's own in-house engine.Īmong the revelations is that the game is more ambitious than your average Quantic Dream interactive movie, and angling to be a full open-world game. Some reckon that it might be multiple years until the game sees the light of day. At the Game Awards the project was described as being in "early development," which for a heavily story-driven game of this size usually means being at least a couple years from release. As impressive as the trailer was, it seems more of a tone piece than anything representing the final game. Shrouded in mystery, this release date is. When is Star Wars Eclipse's release date? Expectations swiftly plummeted with the appearance of the Quantic Dream logo-the developers of the wonky Detroit: Become Human, and a studio mired in deep controversy and with a patchy track record despite a flair for the cinematic. For a heady two minutes and thirty-seven seconds, hopes were high.
