Ex-LucasArts Dev's New Studio Has Ideas For Force Unleashed III
Earlier this week, ex-LucasArts developers Haden Blackman and Cedrick Collomb announced the formation of a new developer, Fearless Studios. Despite having just left LucasArts, Blackman says they are not opposed to the idea of working with the Star Wars publisher in the future, possibly even on a sequel to Blackman's biggest past project, the Force Unleashed series.
Speaking to Industry Gamers, Blackman revealed that Fearless Studios "would absolutely consider a relationship with LucasArts in the future, and would even consider developing The Force Unleashed 3 as part of our portfolio, provided we had a proper schedule to do it justice." He even went so far as to say that the team has "ideas about how to improve the gameplay and where the story might go next."
Blackman was an executive producer on both of the Force Unleashed games as well as a writer for the second.
As for what we can expect to see as Fearless' first project, Blackman said the team is working on six pitches at the moment, a few of which he described: "an over-the-top action title, a hardcore horror concept, a game set in an alternate timeline, and another set in a dark urban fantasy world."
We'll update with more info when we find out which project they've settled on. Would you like to see this promising new studio go back to the Star Wars grind, or would you rather they created something new?
