In the end, however, Slant 6 never released a Star Wars game, and they sadly shuttered in 2013. Many were almost positive that it was the case. These rumors were pretty strong at the time. Murmurs that Slant 6, Canadian indie devs were known for the SOCOM series at the time, were being looked at to revive the old war machine and bring the galaxy back to the battlefront.
However, a bit before ORC had been released, there were murmurs. Sadly, that wasn’t likely, as Pandemic Studios, the original creators, had closed their doors long ago. Some were fine living the old glory endlessly, but many wanted fresh blood to be pumped into the IP. This visceral, almost intimate look at the franchise still lives on to this day, both in old servers kept alive by fans and in official rebirths by EA.īack in 2012, though, only the old servers were around. Lauded unanimously as one of the strongest Star Wars experiences ever, the Battlefront series brought the War half to life, putting you into the boots of soldiers in the galactic warzone. In fact, they were quite possibly going to revive one of the most beloved Star Wars properties this side of Tatooine: Battlefront. The story is thus: at its release, Slant 6 Games, the developers of Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City, was the center of quite a few rumors about a galaxy far, far away. That being said, buried somewhere deep within the code of ORC, there’s a mysterious glimmer of the Force… Seeing it all from the eyes of the bad guys is always fun. It’s certainly a bizarre addition to the franchise, but it gave us an interesting “what-if” scenario of the most famous zombie outbreak ever.
Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City isn’t exactly adored by fans. Believe it or not, though, there was actually one time in history where these two franchises met in a very strange place. Regardless, though, it probably seems strange that I’d be bringing up Star Wars on a strictly Resident Evil website.
That probably seems pretty on-brand for me by now, huh? I’m our shining beacon of positivity and unpopular opinions here at BHD. Myself, I’ll likely watch one of the prequel movies today, because I unabashedly love all of the movies, new or old. It’s May 4th, Star Wars Day! If you’re like me, this is always a fun day to consume some of your favorite sci-fi space opera action.
