In a bold and unusual move for publisher Ubisoft, its open-world Star Wars game Star Wars Outlaws now has a new creative director. And his first message to the community this week reveals an expanded approach to Massive Entertainment’s plans to turn the game into a big holiday hit.
The game’s new creative director is 10-year Ubisoft veteran Drew Rechner, according to an update posted on Outlaws’ website. Rechner is replacing former creative director Julian Gerighty. Ubisoft and Massive did not elaborate on why Gerighty was replaced. Ubisoft did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
