Paris-based studio Quantic Dream led by French game designer/writer David Cage became an independent company in February 2020. They are largely known for narrative-based stories and branching paths that led to multiple endings.
Lucasfilm Games has signaled an end to their exclusivity deal with Electronic Arts after officially revealing a partnership with Ubisoft. They have coined this decision to be "a new direction" and encouraged other studios to pitch new ideas.
For future unannounced games, Quantic Dream plans to target multi-platform releases since partnership with Sony has ended and it will be interesting to see them exploring Light and Dark sides of the Force within Star Wars universe.
Despite rumors from reputed sources, Disney and Quantic Dream have yet to confirm whether these claims are actually true or not. Earlier this year, Quantic Dream has opened a new studio in Montréal, Canada, expanding out of France.
