New Star Wars RPG led by Mass Effect boss backed by $100 million fund "bringing common sense back to the games industry" as it "treats developers so badly"

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic.

I can't tell you when Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic will come out, but we have strong assurance that it will indeed be coming out. This is thanks to funding from a newly established holding company founded by a former president of NetEase, who's managed to obtain a substantial starting investment.

This entity is called GreaterThan Group, and it's founded by Simon Zhu, who led NetEase for 12 years while investing in numerous other teams, such as Quantic Dream and Rebel Wolves. The operation is fresh, having just started last year, and it's going public now because it's got a combined $100 million or so on the go, providing guaranteed runway for the foreseeable future.
