LucasArts puts Star Wars 1313 development on hold, claims source
News
Developer insists production continues.
Probable next-generation action game Star Wars 1313 may have been canned, Kotaku sources familiar with developer LucasArts have claimed.
According to the source, development of 1313 "has been frozen or put on hold" following Disney's acquisition of the Lucas empire back in November 2012.
However, LucasArts insists the game remains in production.
"LucasArts has been working diligently to take advantage of the tremendous opportunities that the new Star Wars movies present," a company spokesperson told Kotaku. "Star Wars 1313 continues production."
Star Wars 1313 was announced at E3 2012 impressing with its generation pushing visuals. Let's hope we hear more about the game at E3 in June.

Thought this might be the case after the statements Disney made about what they saw as the future direction of their games branch. Still depressing to read it in black and white though. Really hope this game still makes it to the shelves as it was intended, and not some godawful EP VII tie-in.
