There are a lot of layoffs happening in the games industry right now, and EA has just announced it will be losing another 5% of its workforce — which amounts to around 670 jobs. On top of that a number of upcoming games projects have been canceled, including Respawn’s long-awaited Star Wars first person shooter.
That just means another Star Wars game is being lost to the already-large pile of Star Wars games that were canceled since Disney took over the franchise in 2012. They include games that were canned because they pre-date the Lucasfilm buyout and others that have been announced in the years since — most of which were also canceled by EA.
