Overview
- Insider Gaming said Monday that development on Quantic Dream’s Star Wars Eclipse has been very slow and is still years from completion.
- Sources cited by multiple outlets say NetEase could rethink or cut investment if Spellcasters Chronicles, Quantic Dream’s free-to-play PC title, fails to bring in revenue.
- Steam stats reported by outlets show Spellcasters peaked at 888 concurrent players and has often struggled to top 200, raising doubts about its ability to fund Eclipse.
- Eurogamer and others report the team could speed progress by adding staff, but NetEase is described as cautious about expanding headcount without a clearer plan.
- Quantic Dream last said in October 2025 that work continues, yet there is no release window; the game was first revealed with a cinematic trailer in 2021 and Bloomberg previously reported it had little built at reveal.
