Quantic Dream, the developer behind Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human, is rumoured to be making a Star Wars game. The rumour has surfaced courtesy French YouTuber Gautoz, who reports that the studio has signed on with Disney. This follows the company’s shift to multiplatform after a long history of working exclusively with Sony. As ever, all rumours should not be taken at face value, but Dualshockers reports that it has its own sources that confirm that Quantic Dream is working on a Star Wars game. The site reports that its source “provided overwhelming evidence” of having connections within Quantic Dream, and that the Star Wars game has been the studio’s project for around 18 months. The report notes that is is unclear what exactly that 18-month timeframe entails, but rumours within the “French developer community” suggest the game may have only begun full development in the past few months.Have you played Detroit: Become Human?YESNOWhile there has been no official word surrounding an upcoming Star Wars game from Quantic Dream, Dualshockers’ reporter, Tom Henderson, captured a screenshot from Twitter that showed the company had liked a tweet discussing the rumours.
