Odds would suggest that this is our first look at the game’s primary antagonist. We also get Jedi dueling on a bridge, alien races in seedy Outer Rim cities and an alien race performing some form of ritual that appears to birth a sinister-looking figure. Perhaps the biggest moment of the trailer is actually buried in the middle when we see a little green figure staring out the window of what looks like the Jedi Council chambers. A closer inspection of visual assets provided by Quantic Dream shows this is in fact Yoda standing in the Council room, so we can expect at least one familiar face. While there’s no gameplay in the trailer, there is still plenty to dissect. Novels, comics and even audiobooks have already explored this era, but Eclipse will be the first video game set within this part of the Star Wars timeline. The High Republic period, not to be confused with The Old Republic, is set hundreds of years before The Skywalker Saga, and was the golden age of the Republic and the Jedi Order. The Star Wars Eclipse cinematic trailer from The Game Awards 2021 sets the game in the High Republic Era. Star Wars is a different beast in Cage's mind (opens in new tab), and his plan is to tackle the two subjects differently. In an interview with IGN, Cage said that Detroit: Become Human was all about predicting the tech of the next 10 to 20 years and showing how that impacts society and was more about anticipation than science fiction.
Still, Quantic Dream founder David Cage says to expect something new, not simply a Star Wars-themed reskin of Detroit: Become Human.
While it is not confirmed that she will be the sole protagonist of Eclipse, this leak leads us to believe that she will be the main protagonist. Sarah is a member of the Zaraan, a new human-like race new to the Star Wars universe.
In a leak to Sacred Symbols (opens in new tab) podcast host, which was later determined to be a controlled leak (opens in new tab) from developer Quantic Dream to gauge interest, Eclipse will have a lead character named Sarah. Rather than fixating on one character that you build up over time, you may need to control the fate of many pieces on the proverbial board.ĭespite this claim of multiple playable characters, there's been some - mildly - conflicting information regarding how many players you could play as. There will be several playable characters and your choices will matter, with every decision having the potential for a dramatic impact on the course of the player's story experience. In classic Quantic Dream fashion, it appears that player choice will be a key component of Star Wars Eclipse. The studio might not completely switch things up, though. This suggests it might shake off the “playable movie” tag from previous Quantic Dream games. The developer notes (opens in new tab) that Star Wars Eclipse will be an action-adventure game with multiple characters, each with its own branching possibilities. However, the developer may branch out for Eclipse. Quantic Dream tends to create interactive, narrative-driven adventure games that are light on traditional gameplay.
