Well, with today being the 4th May, we suppose that we should have been expecting some sort of Star Wars video game news - but we don't think that we would have saw this one coming. Respawn Entertainment, the studio behind Titanfall, has a third-person Star Wars title in production.
Sadly, there's no trailer or any other media to go on just yet, but it's apparently going to be an action adventure game - which is certainly an exciting prospect. On his personal blog, game director Stig Asmussen - who, while at Sony Santa Monica, had a big part to play in the God of War franchise - seems incredibly enthusiastic about the project, describing it as "the chance of a lifetime".
Are you just as excited? Let's get around to some heavy speculation in the comments section below.

Too soon to be excited, but it does sounds promising!
I think the force unleashed one was amazing for its time. Make something like that with this gen tech and I would definitely buy it.
You know what sold me on it though. The DEMO. did I say a bad word? 😉
Woohoo. Just hope they can make a decent game. Loved fired unleashed but was too short. Was wondering if they would bring an episode 7 game out. I hope so.
sounds promising i will await further news
The fact that stig is behind the game means I'm in
Would love a good Star Wars adventure that isant a multiplayer only.Only good Star wars game I've played is the original Lego one
Wonder what stage that Visceral game's at. It's been a while since we heard anything.
Excellent news I'm all for a new single player star wars game! Oh and happy may the 4th!
I thought Amy Hennig's 'Star Wars' project at EA was a third person adventure? Is this a different one or is that who she has been working with?
Still disappointed that 1313 got cancelled and SW:BF didn't have a campaign...
If CD Project Red was involved, then I'd be excited.
@BAMozzy what you said
Please, PLEASE don't lock this single player adventure behind a mandated server connection.
Offline single player and I'll buy TWO copies.
@BAMozzy Good call. I think Hennig's will be a 3rd person shooter, "like uncharted" they said... This one hopefully is an action game like Force Unleashed...
So thats two announced Star Wars 3rd person action adventure games without even a piece of concept art.
@whywai88 As Respawn have a history of 'first person' shooters and Amy Hennig more of the third person Action game it does seem 'odd' that both are working on a third person star wars action game and both could be in competition with each other unless they are actually working together on the same project. Its possible of course that Amy Hennigs project could be for this year and Respawns for next
I loved the Force Unleashed and if they did a game like that I'd be well up for it.
