Amy Hennig, who was the creative director of Visceral's Star Wars project before the studio was shuttered last October, left EA in January and is moving into indie development. This comes from a Eurogamer interview with the Uncharted co-creator at Gamelab in Barcelona, where she also revealed that the project, previously codenamed Ragtag, isn't really the same game in the hands of new developer EA Vancouver.

"The Vancouver studio is working on something pretty different," Hennig says, describing Visceral's project as being "on the shelf". "It's really not... Y'know, once you go more open world it's such a different game to the one we were making. Everybody loved what we were doing and I'd love to see us resurrect that somehow, but it's complicated."
