As Bethesda works on an Indiana Jones game, Ubisoft, too, is currently developing a game based on another Disney franchise. The team behind Ubisoft’s The Division series is working on a Star Wars game, a notable change of hands from EA, who has handled the IP exclusively since 2012. Wired exclusively reports Massive Entertainment has entered a contract with Lucasfilm Games, and while little information was given on the project, it is very early on in development, and is set to be an open world game.

Never played The Division, but if it goes alike the rest of their recent portfolio, forget any decent plot.

Immortal: Fenyx Rising? That's an Ubisoft game, right, with surprisingly good gameplay and story?

Dunno, haven't touched it.

After immortals:fenyx rising, I have no trust in Ubisoft with open world games, that game was just bland

I guess you meant an open universe Star Wars game

 

[DerpDingus]

Just another Massive game company to bank on the Star wars name and milk every last drop of what is left of the franchise

Please don't make it a "curiosity-based exploration" game, as Skill Up describes such boring, unmotivating disasters as Breath of the Wild and Immortal...make it more like Marvel's Spider-Man and Ghost of Tsushima, which have handy (though not an overwhelming number of) map markers.

Convenience and motivation-building is key. Advertise what your game offers; don't hide it!

Seems EA isn't renewing their exclusivity license past 2023, so it's gonna be a while until this releases. Also, going from EA to Ubisoft isn't a very big upgrade. -__-

Get ready for some Space towers and rabbids references.

If we could travel to another planets and systems, would be great.
Could be something like No man's Sky.

Calling it now.

- Online only (Game-As-A-Service)
- DLC Packs (Story modes)
- Weapon DLCs (Weapon packs, skins, customization extras, etc)
- Skin DLCs ( Luke's Hair, Leia's Hair, Han's Outfit, etc.)

IMO, this will only match people's expectations and succeed if they do something based on Breath of the Wild gameplay with a touch of RDR2 in terms of graphics and game mechanics. It's not an easy task but it's possible if they have the right people working on it.
