Did you hear about the studio Frontwire who Star Wars IP and this is a big problem, especially at a time when Star Wars is as popular as it is. 515b53

Frontwire president Tony Romanelli detailed in a deal with EA for all Star Wars games so this was never meant to be from the start. It doesn’t fall under fair use and it’s too much of a risk of competition with the Battflefront series.

Romanelli does describe a very pleasant experience with Lucasfilm, however, and thanked Star Wars from it completely.

Frontwire’s attorneys do believe it falls under Fair Use so this might not be the end of the game. We will have to wait and see.
