Interestingly, Quantic Dream actually opened a brand new studio to help support Star Wars: Eclipse. The studio says we will "have the power to make choices with consequences thanks to many outcomes in this deeply branching narrative", but we're still yet to see what the gameplay itself may look like. However, Star Wars: Eclipse is said to be a more traditional action experience, without skimping on all the choice and consequence Quantic Dream is so good at delivering. The studio is known for games like Detroid: Become Human and Heavy Rain, adventure which route their gameplay through branching narrative paths and limited input. Star Wars: Eclipse is promising to be a new type of Quantic Dream game. "The way of life in the Outer Rim is being threatened and you must define your path." Star Wars Eclipse gameplay "Every decision you make can have dramatic repercussions on your journey," Quantic Dream adds, in a press release. That level of choice will be key to the Star Wars: Eclipse story, particularly as it will allow us to "see the galaxy through the eyes of an ensemble cast of multiple, charismatic playable characters, each with their own morality, personality, motivations, and impact upon each other and the story at large." Quantic Dreams says we should expect to find "all-new characters and environments" to the Star Wars franchise, including "never-before-seen species and planets to discover." The studio adds: "This part of the Outer Rim is rife with opportunity – and political tensions that could alter the fabric of peace. Star Wars: Eclipse is set to take us to an "uncharted region of the Outer Rim during The High Republic era, known as the golden age of the Jedi." That means we'll be heading back hundreds of years before the Skywalker Saga, to a time where Jedi and the Galactic Republic was at its most powerful.
