Respawn Entertainment, the company behind hit 2019 game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order<\/a>, is working on three new games in the Star Wars galaxy.<\/p>\n Electronic Arts (EA), the owners of Respawn, confirmed the news with an official statement, saying: \u201cVince Zampella, Group GM and Founder of Respawn, will oversee this new phase of EA\u2019s relationship with Lucasfilm, building on Respawn\u2019s award-winning history in game development and expertise in telling compelling Star Wars stories.\u201d<\/p>\n Of the three Star Wars games in the works at Respawn, one of them is Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2<\/a>, which was described rather blandly in the announcement as \u201cthe next game in the action adventure Star Wars Jedi series\u201d. Stig Asmussen, director of the previous Fallen Order game, will return to direct this one.<\/p>\n The other two Star Wars projects at Respawn are described in the announcement as an \u201call-new Star Wars first-person shooter game\u201d developed by Peter Hirschmann, and \u201ca Star Wars strategy game developed through a production collaboration with the newly formed studio Bit Reactor, helmed by games industry veteran Greg Foerstch.\u201d<\/p>\n Neither of those genres are brand new to the Star Wars franchise overall, but this does mark the first time that Respawn specifically has tackled either of those gameplay types within the Star Wars galaxy.<\/p>\n Respawn does have plenty of experience in the world of shooters, though, having developed the much-loved online multiplayer title Apex Legends, which has a battle royale mode and a three-versus-three arena mode.<\/p> It\u2019ll be interesting to see what a Respawn spin on a Star Wars shooter looks like, especially when you consider that EA DICE (another company owned by EA) has delivered two Star Wars Battlefront<\/a> games in the years since Disney bought Lucasfilm.<\/p>\n \u201cWorking with Lucasfilm Games on a new FPS in the Star Wars galaxy is a dream come true for me, as this is a story I have always wanted to tell,\u201d said Peter Hirschmann, who will oversee the new shooter project. He has previously been credited on a number of Star Wars titles, including the original two Star Wars Battlefront games and 2008\u2019s The Force Unleashed.<\/p>\n We shall also watch the development of Respawn and Bit Reactor\u2019s Star Wars strategy game with interest. There have been plenty of tactics-based Star Wars games over the years, with 2006\u2019s Star Wars: Empire at War remaining a particular standout. (Here\u2019s a fun fact: Hirschmann was credited on that one, too.)<\/p>\n \u201cWe are huge fans of Star Wars here at Respawn and we\u2019re thrilled to work with Lucasfilm Games on new titles that we have wanted to make for years,\u201d said company founder Vince Zampella. \u201cIf you want to make great Star Wars games, you should come join us on our journey.\u201d<\/p>\n The official announcement links off to the Respawn Careers<\/a> page, noting: \u201cWork has already begun on all three of these projects, and Respawn is looking for talent to join the teams.\u201d None of these games have release dates yet, but as we hear more, we\u2019ll be sure to let you know.<\/p>\n Follow Radio Times Gaming on Twitter<\/a> for all the latest insights.
