It feels both difficult and wrong to celebrate the confirmation that a sequel toStar Wars Jedi: Survivoris in the works when it’s packaged with the news of yet more industry layoffs.

Alongside that, it was reportedly confirmed that a third entry in the Star Wars Jedi series has been greenlit following the success of last year’sStar Wars Jedi: Survivor. The teams working on the aforementioned Star Wars FPS will reportedly be moved to other projects includingJedi 3, Apex Legends, and the upcoming Iron Man and Black Panther games.
Their fates appear to be safe. It’s not yet known what’s happening to EA’s Star Wars strategy game that was in the works. Elsewhere, theBattlefieldteams will also be restructured, Ridgeline Games will shut down, as will a number of mobile titles includingF1 Mobile Racing, MLB Tap Sports, Kim Kardashian Hollywood, andThe Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-earth.
IGN further added that to their understanding, EA’s plans will see them focus on major franchises, live communities, and large open-world games. A small team supposedly remains at work on the nextMass Effectentry, although that’s still in pre-production with the vast majority of BioWare devs working on Dragon Age.
