Will The High Republic Continue After The Acolyte's Cancellation?

While the era's expansion in shows like Young Jedi Adventures, The Acolyte, and even games like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor have been welcome additions to the High Republic's canon, The Acolyte's poor reception and ratings make it much less likely that Star Wars will be interested in continuing to explore this era on screen, especially now that the publishing initiative has come to its official end.

Video game workers union STJV argues that the current redundancies envisaged by management are illegal, as companies in France cannot simply fire a specific team because their project failed. Layoffs must be dictated by a company-wide point system, taking into account dependents, seniority, social situations, and professional skills. So, if Quantic Dream were to issue layoffs, it would have to look at the entire studio—Star Wars Eclipse devs included. As such, the union is now demanding "that all planned terminations be canceled," "that the Spellcasters teams be reassigned to the production of
