Ubisoft, the renowned game developer, has provided a subtle hint regarding the release window for its highly anticipated open-world Star Wars game. However, fans should temper their expectations as a 2024 release may not be feasible.
During a recent release schedule announcement, which unveiled titles like Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Tom Clancy’s The Division Resurgence, and Skull and Bones, Ubisoft dropped hints that the next Star Wars game could potentially launch in March 2024, coinciding with the end of the company’s fiscal year. This information was shared by two reliable sources cited by Kotaku.
Despite this tentative release window, fans should be prepared for a long wait. The sources emphasized that the ambitious scope of the new open-world Star Wars game makes a 2024 release unlikely. Instead, it is more plausible that fans will have to wait until 2025 to embark on their Star Wars adventure.
Although an official release date remains uncertain, there are still plenty of reasons for the excitement surrounding Ubisoft’s Star Wars title. Announced in January 2021, the game is being developed using Ubisoft’s powerful Snowdrop engine, which also powers projects like Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and The Division series.
Creative director Julian Gerighty has revealed that Ubisoft’s Star Wars game will feature a captivating story and a set of relatable characters, delivering a unique experience within the Star Wars universe. While it remains to be seen if the game can match the charm of previous titles like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, with its beloved characters like the friendly Turgle, fans eagerly await Ubisoft’s creative take on the franchise.
As fans patiently wait for a confirmed release date, the hope is that Ubisoft will deliver a polished and immersive Star Wars experience whenever the game finally arrives.
