Gameplay footage for the cancelled Star Wars: Magellan has appeared online

Years after its cancellation, gameplay footage for Star Wars: Magellan has surfaced online. The action RPG, developed by now-defunct Echtra Games, features Jedi and Mandalorian characters battling enemies. The game was designed to be loot-focused, with defeated foes dropping various rare gear and weapons. Each character possesses unique abilities and a selection of weapons.

According to former developer MP1st, the game would also incorporate an NPC Bond system, enabling players to forge deeper connections with certain story characters. Originally planned for PC and modern consoles such as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, Echtra Games acquired by Zynga in 2021 began development under an unnamed title that year.

However, little progress was made, and the game's status remained unknown until June 2025 when Zynga announced the closure of Echtra Games. A Zynga spokesperson stated that the decision was part of a strategic realignment of company resources and priorities, with the company committed to treating impacted employees with respect during the transition.

The team at Echtra had previously worked on the Torchlight 3, a game that, despite some launch issues, displayed genuine passion.
