Staff were involved (*informed) of the shutdown this morning, according to a reliable Kotaku source. Some 150 people were laid off, and both of the studio's current projects--Star Wars: First Assault and Star Wars 1313--were cancelled.

This comes after weeks and months of rumors involving the studio, which was acquired by Disney last fall.

I'm still assuming this is a late prank...

[YourCompanionCube]

Yahoo or Bing it. They've shut down Lucasarts, laid off 150 people, and cancelled all projects, but are allowing the licenses to be purchased.

[Mereel Skirata]

I AM A PSYCHIC.   


Now if they continue with 1313 and announce a new Battlefront I will osik a brick.....

[Vlet Hansen]

This sounds retarded, let's see where they go with it!

[dredwulf60]

So...

The logic of the situations is....



that Mereel really DOES love Justin Bieber!!



I *Knew* it!!!!

[ARC_Commander_Colt]

And 1313 was originally going to be about Boba Fett. Now we'll never get to play it. \

I heard that 1313 could still be on the table for development. Visceral Games is apparently working on an open world Star Wars game. That could possibly be 1313, or at least some incarnation of it.
