EA has announced that it’s shutting down Visceral Games, the studio best known for developing the Dead Space series of games and Battlefield Hardline.
Visceral was in the middle of work on an upcoming Star Wars title, which EA says will live on in some form, with EA Worldwide Studios and EA Vancouver taking over development.
Along with the shift in direction and shut down of Visceral, the Star Wars game — which was originally slated to launch late in 2019 — now no longer has a release window, although EA executive vice president Patrick Söderlund says that the company will be announcing a new time frame sometime in the future.
