According to a report on Sacred Symbols, Quantic Dream‘s Star Wars Eclipse will feature a brand new race and will focus on political conflict.
Host Colin Moriarty claims that the game isn’t even in production yet, with the podcast going on to mention that documents provided to them offer an overview of one of the game’s characters and motivations. Reportedly, Star Wars Eclipse is being co-written by David Cage and Adam Williams.
Materials seen by this podcast describe a so-called Project S, with a character named Sarah as the lead. Sarah is described as an athletic 30-something and is a member of a human-like race. This race is at the lead of some sort of empire called The Zaraan, a race not seen in Star Wars before.
It prides itself on political and military aggression and similar to what you find elsewhere in Star Wars there’s little differentiation between males and females when it comes to roles and responsibilities. But, there’s an interesting wrinkle, when Zaraan marries, their nuptials carry interesting military implications as they become one governing unit that works together.

This is a problem, because Sarah, a fanatical true believer in the violence and criminality regularly demonstrated by her empire, is married to a character named Xendo, who is a far softer touch. Part of the game seems to revolve around these two characters and their relationship.
Star Wars Eclipse has yet to attract a release date but is not likely to see the light of day for a few years yet.
