Electronic Arts is allegedly working on a new open-world Star Wars game, according to job postings at Vancouver's EA Canada, as noted by Kotaku.
The Canadian studio is currently seeking an animation director to work on "a major new next gen open world game," revealed on Twitter by the studio's recruiter as a Star Wars project.
This follows the recent 10-year Star Wars deal signed by EA this year, with studios includng DICE, Visceral Games and BioWare all mentioned as working on new IP. So far it isn't clear whether EA Canada is working on a seperate title or aiding in the development of one currently in progress at another studio.
We've reached out to EA for details and will update when more information becomes available.
