Free Radical Design was working on Star Wars Battlefront 3 and 4 before it collapsed.
Co-founder Steve Ellis, now making iOS games at new studio Crash Lab, told Eurogamer sister site GamesIndustry International in a sweeping interview published today that the Nottingham studio had a strong relationship with Star Wars IP holder LucasArts following a deal signed in 2006.
In an era where pixels ruled the screen and creativity sparked the imagination, a few names stand out as trailblazers in the gaming industry – David Fox is undoubtedly among them. As a co-founder of LucasArts, Fox played a pivotal role in shaping the landscape of gaming, leaving an indelible mark with iconic titles that continue to resonate with players worldwide. Join Sector as he shares captivating stories about the birth of LucasArts and the enthralling narratives behind some of the industry's most beloved classics.
eh…Gilbert, Purcell Schaffer were the trail blazers in that crew. David, while he did do some stuff once, like a real long ass time ago is more like b-list personality that specializes in reminiscing and signing ops at a convention.
Andersson will act as design director on the title and work in parallel with creative director Axel Torvenius – who was previously art director for the Wolfenstein games and with executive producer Jerk Gustafsson at the helm.
You know what games I want way more than Indiana Jones? The darkness and Riddick.
Haha, completely agree... But, the fact that he is involved in this is a definitely a positive sign! Could actually be a good game!
You might be right. Indiana Jones will never do Jackie or Riddick stuff though. The darkness was brutal on the eyes and ears lol.
The Darkness was an underrated gem. Fantastic lore and Mike patton from Faith No More voicing the darkness is up there with the great video game voice overs imo.
While new chapters or remakes would be great; it is nice to see the classics get some love. Amazon’s Prime Gaming is amping up the nostalgia this summer by offering Amazon Prime members a selection of free classic LucasArts games for PC.
:(
I just want 3 damnit! :'(
Proof that Corporate Idiots are screwing up the games industry. Who in their right mind would cancel Battlefront 3?
If they listened to their consumers, Lucasarts would have had the second most successful online game this gen. Instead, they shove out Force Unleashed 2 & Kinect Star Wars! Bunch of Fools!
Totally agree.. Corporates are destroying the industry
More proof that Lucas Arts is now filled with incompetent buffoons. This followed by Star Wars Kinect? They want me to dance or pay a monthly sub to enjoy a new Star Wars game. - F U Lucas.
