| Star Wars: Kenobi Book Cover |
|
io9 has scored the Star Wars: Kenobi book cover. Star Wars: Kenobi by John Jackson Miller will be available in hardcover on August 27. Tatooine—a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders. A backwater planet on the edge of civilized space. And an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding, or an orphaned infant boy on whose tiny shoulders rests the future of a galaxy. Known to locals only as “Ben,” the bearded and robed offworlder is an enigmatic stranger who keeps to himself, shares nothing of his past, and goes to great pains to remain an outsider. But as tensions escalate between the farmers and a tribe of Sand People led by a ruthless war chief, Ben finds himself drawn into the fight, endangering the very mission that brought him to Tatooine. Ben—Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars, traitor to the Empire, and protector of the galaxy’s last hope—can no more turn his back on evil than he can reject his Jedi training. And when blood is unjustly spilled, innocent lives threatened, and a ruthless opponent unmasked, Ben has no choice but to call on the wisdom of the Jedi—and the formidable power of the Force—in his never-ending fight for justice.

| New Star Wars Game Domains? |
|
Electronic Arts signs a deal with Disney to do video games and then a lot of domains get purchased. According to Fusible, Lucasfilm has registered a slew of new domain names that include titles like: Star Wars Alliance, Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars Wolf Pack, Wolf Pack Adventures, Order 67, Bothan Spies, Gungan Frontier 2, Gungan Frontier 3, Gungan Frontier 4, and Wookiee Hunters. Here’s the list: http://whois.domaintools.com/gunganfrontier2.com http://whois.domaintools.com/gunganfrontier3.com http://whois.domaintools.com/gunganfrontier4.com http://whois.domaintools.com/order67.net http://whois.domaintools.com/starwarsalliance.com http://whois.domaintools.com/starwarsrebels.com http://whois.domaintools.com/starwarswolfpack.com http://whois.domaintools.com/wolfpackadventures.net http://whois.domaintools.com/wookieehunters.com While it’s unknown what will become of Star Wars: 1313 and Star Wars: First Assault, it looks like more plans are already in the works for other titles. |

| Does Dave Filoni Hint At New Star Wars Show? |
|
Dave Filoni posted the image below on his Facebook page of his sketches for a docked Imperial TIE Fighter. What is most interesting is the caption he listed below it: "It’s hard to believe that I have worked at Lucasfilm almost eight years, and this is the first time I have ever gotten to draw a TIE fighter." Now surely he has made sketches before of a TIE Fighter, but the key here is Lucasfilm. Dave had mentioned it might be about 80 days before we might hear something from him on what has been going on. Perhaps this is his way of dropping a hint of what we might be getting in the way of a new animated TV show. Now the question will be is it for the time period between Episode III & IV, or is a set up for Episode VII by filling the void after Episode VI? Only time will tell. Great stuff!

| Episode VII To Start Filming In 2014 |
|
Collider.com has an article with producer Bryan Burk as he talked briefly about Star Wars, which he is also producing alongside Abrams and Kennedy. With Disney pushing hard for a 2015 release for Star Wars: Episode VII, production on the film needs to get underway sooner rather than later. Burk stated: "We’re progressing on a schedule to hopefully begin next year, or the beginning of next year, and the location is still kind of floating around in the air all depending on script and a whole bunch of other issues. As I just said, everything is kind of a free-flowing thing, and when we feel like the story level on this script and everything is really coming together and schedules are all working and pieces line up, we prowl ahead, and Star Wars will be no different." Be sure to read the entire article. |

| Electronic Arts Signs Multi-Year Deal For Star Wars Games |
|
The Official Star Wars Site has announced that Lucasfilm Ltd. and Disney Interactive are entering into a multi-year, multi-title exclusive licensing agreement with Electronic Arts Inc. (EA) for the creation of new high quality Star Wars games spanning multiple genres for console, PC, mobile, and tablets. Industry leaders and creators of best-in-class blockbuster games, the development and publishing teams at EA will collaborate with the creative teams at Lucasfilm to provide audiences with all-new gaming experiences set in the ever-expanding Star Wars galaxy. As part of the agreement, EA studio teams DICE (Battlefield series) and Visceral (Dead Space series) will join BioWare (Mass Effect series, Star Wars: The Old Republic) in the development of new Star Wars games. "Our number one objective was to find a developer who could consistently deliver our fans great Star Wars games for years to come," said Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm. "When we looked at the talent of the teams that EA was committing to our games and the quality of their vision for Star Wars, the choice was clear." While EA studios will develop for the core Star Wars gaming audience, Disney Interactive will focus on delivering new Star Wars games for casual audiences on mobile, social, tablet, and online gaming platforms. "This agreement demonstrates our commitment to creating quality game experiences that drive the popularity of the Star Wars franchise for years to come," said John Pleasants, co-president of Disney Interactive. "Collaborating with one of the world's premier game developers will allow us to bring an amazing portfolio of new Star Wars titles to fans around the world." "Every developer dreams of creating games for the Star Wars universe," said EA Labels President Frank Gibeau. "Three of our top studios will fulfill that dream, crafting epic adventures for Star Wars fans. The new experiences we create may borrow from films, but the games will be entirely original with all new stories and gameplay." More information, including titles in development, will be announced in the coming months. Continue to check StarWars.com for updates on the future of Star Wars gaming.
