Quite interesting! but sadly they didn't show much

I believe ubisoft is planning to show off some gameplay tomorrow, so look out for that

Oi this seems interesting. Honestly I think I would've preferred an open world game in this setting with character customization rather than a fixed protagonist, but I'm nevertheless curious about this one.

Yeah games like this don't seem to last long. For me at least. Looks cool though.

Shame about that time period setting. Disney are really rinsing the time around the original trilogy with side content. We used to get stuff from far more periods of the universe.

All for some exploration of the Star Wars universe as a non-lightsaber welding protagonist.

okay i know those are just pre-rendered cutscenes but those graphics look incredible lol

Really excited for a new Star Wars game! Hopefully this isn't shallow like some ubi titles have been.

Do we know anything about genre/gameplay beyond "open-world"?

There's more coverage, including gameplay, today on the Unisoft Forward YouTube.

Massive entertainment made the division, will probably be a 3rd person cover shooter like gears or mass effect.
