Now Playing: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Everything To Know
“They’re an incredible team and they’ve created incredible value for us, for our shareholders, and certainly for these global communities of players across Apex and the Jedi series,” Wilson said. “And you should imagine that there’s some other things going on at Respawn that we’re very excited about, that we’re not going to talk about but that we’re very excited about just given the quality of that group.”
Wilson didn’t give specifics, though we currently know of a number of unnamed projects in the works at Respawn. First is an untitled Star Wars first-person shooter, part of an expansive slate of upcoming Star Wars games. Respawn is also supporting Bit Reactor in creating a Star Wars strategy game, and there’s talk of plans for a third Jedi game, turning the series into a trilogy.
Earlier this year, Respawn also revealed that it was working on “something new” with Titanfall director Steve Fukuda at the helm. The project is still in its earliest stages, described as having a very small “skunkworks” team on board to prototype something brand new for the studio.
