I don't really play these Star Wars games, but I hate to see video game companies make stupid decisions (which they do repeatedly.) If EA releases a ton of Anthem's and such that bomb it will start to affect some of their games that I do play.

Well, it's not entirely a shift away since .. [i]According to IGN, the team working on this now-cancelled Star Wars game will be moved to other projects including Apex Legends, Iron Man, Black Panther, and a third installment in the popular third-person action series, Star Wars: Jedi.
