Amy Hennig has just spoken in public for the first time about the Star Wars game she's making at Visceral and.... Well, she didn't reveal too much, which is understandable given the game's 2018 release date, but a few small details could be gleaned from what was said at a panel during this year's Star Wars Celebration. Firstly, it sounds very much like Visceral's Star Wars game - which is yet to receive a proper title - will feature multiple protagonists. Hennig, who was head writer on the Uncharted series, spoke about the 'breezy urgency' that defines the matinee movies that inspired Nathan Drake, and how the world of Star Wars differs from those.
"We're creating an all-new Star Wars story with new characters, and it's important that we honour it," she said. "We want you to finish playing the game and feel like you just saw a really good Star Wars movie." Hennig has taken inspiration from another Lucasfilm property before, of course, with Indiana Jones seeping into the style and tone of Uncharted, but while Visceral's game may be similar to Naughty Dog's series it looks like it'll add its own flavour.
