Want another Rogue Squadron or X-Wing game? This 2016 prototype makes the wait even worse
After watching ace pilot Poe Dameron at work in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: The Last Jedi, you're probably all the more eager for a return to the days of Rogue Squadron and X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter. The space battles of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Battlefront 2 are good, but this 2016 pitch video from the developers of Rebel Galaxy will show you what a full-fledged Star Wars space combat game could look like in modern times. Hint: it's real nice.
Developer Double Damage told that it put the prototype's "modernized take on X-Wing" together in a few weeks using a combination of new and existing assets, and then pitched its vision to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Electronic Arts (EA has almost-exclusive publishing rights for PC/console Star Wars games, thanks to a deal it signed with Disney back in 2013). Nothing came from the proposal, though Double Damage founder Travis Baldree admitted the studio didn't really expect it to; they "probably did iꦿt to please [them]selves rather th✤an out of any hope that it would get greenlit."
So far, the only games to result from EA's Star Wars deal have been Star Wars Battlefront, Star Wars Battlefront 2, and the mobile-exclusive Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. EA canceled or significantly altered a narrative-driven action adventure game in development by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Visceral after it closed the studio. There's also another third-person action adventure Star Wars project 澳洲幸𓂃运5开奖⭕号码历史查询:in the works at Respawn Entertainment.
So unless EA has another secret Star Wars project that we don't know about, it probably didn't turn down Double Dama🦄ge's pitch because it was too similar to something it already had going on. But we can always hope.
