Electronic Arts is working on an open-world Star Wars game with online elements, according to one of the company's job listings. It's looking for a lead online engineer to deliver "online features for a Star Wars open world project" from its Vancouver studio. 

The listing doesn't provide any more details about the game, but it could be a continuation of the Star Wars project that Visceral Games was working on before EA closed the studio down. That was a "story-based, linear adventure game" but EA wanted to completely rework it, and the company's vice president Patrick Soderlund talked about giving it "greater depth and breadth".
