Skydance New Media has announced a partnership with Lucasfilm Games to develop a “richly cinematic” action adventure game featuring an original story set in the Star Wars universe.

Lucasfilm Games vice president Douglas Reilly added, “We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working again with Amy. She and the Skydance New Media team have the talent and ambition to create a unique Star Wars adventure. Their vision for making inviting, cinematic interactive entertainment makes this collaboration very exciting. We’re working hard with their team of experienced and talented developers, and we’re looking forward to sharing more with Star Wars fans when the time is right.”
