Overview
- A former Echtra Games developer published internal footage and asset reels online that show third-person gameplay, character animations and rigging for the project codenamed Magellan.
- The clips present Magellan as a multiplayer action RPG built in Unreal Engine 5 with 'shoot & loot' mechanics and distinct playable classes including a Mandalorian and a Jedi.
- Design documents and on-screen material indicate an NPC Bond system tied to story and missions, plus mission types that reward loot from containers and defeated enemies.
- The uploaded reels display a wide range of unfinished assets such as stormtroopers, heavy droids, four-legged Gundark creatures, and prototype weapons and gadgets.
- Zynga confirmed it closed Echtra Games in June 2025 and ended development on future titles, leaving Magellan cancelled and the IP controlled by Lucasfilm so the leak does not imply an official release.
