[PS3/X360] Star Wars 1313

EA has shut down Visceral Games

EA has shut down Visceral Games, the studio behind Dead Space and Battlefield Hardline, and will "pivot" the direction of its untitled Star Wars game.

EA's statement implies that the game's current linear, story-focussed approach will be jettisoned in favour of something with greater mainstream appeal, "we are shifting the game to be a broader experience that allows for more variety and player agency, leaning into the capabilities of our Frostbite engine and reimagining central elements of the game to give players a Star Wars adventure of greater depth and breadth to explore."
