The short version
- Uploaded by a former developer on the project, per MP1st , the footage shows various characters including a Jedi and Mandalorian fighting their way through hordes of enemies.
- The game looked to be a loot-centric experience, with these enemies dropping gear and equipment of various rarities.
- Each character appears to have a dedicated set of skills, as well as a small selection of available weapons to play around with.
What happened
MP1st also claims the game would also feature an "NPC Bond" system, allowing players to form deeper relationships with certain characters involved in the story. Star Wars: Magellan was intended to release for PC and modern consoles including PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Why it matters
Its developer - Echtra Games - was acquired by Zynga in 2021 and development of a then unnamed action RPG began that same year.
