Quantic Dream boss David Cage has said during an interview with IGN Japan at G-Star in South Korea that the upcoming Star Wars Eclipse is the “most ambitious project of our studio” and that it won’t be a mere reskin of his previous game, Detroit: Become Human.
We spent a lot of time trying to imagine our world 10, 15, 20 years from now – what would the technology be like? Do we believe that androids would be part of our societies? I think Star Wars is a very different setting – it’s far, far away, as you know. So it’s something different.
Star Wars is not going to be a skin of Detroit. The two games will be very different, very different, although we will also of course use what we learned. But it’s not going to be a copycat by any means; it’s going to be a very different experience.
Star Wars Eclipse is still in the very early stages of production and has yet to attract a release date. The game takes place during the High Republic era of the popular sci-fi franchise, which is roughly 200 years before the Skywalker saga.
