Amy Hennig is directing a Star Wars game "in the style of Uncharted," according to voice actor Nolan North.

North, famous for his portrayal of Nathan Drake in the Uncharted series, spoke briefly about the unannounced game at Metrocon 2015 in Tampa.

"I happen to know a lot about it," he humblebragged, "and it's going to be awesome."

Though not a revival of cancelled project 1313, North says Hennig's game is "along the same lines".

Star Wars: 1313, a gritty, "adult" action-adventure set in the underworld of planet-city Coruscant, was in development at LucasArts until cancelled after Disney's purchase of Lucasfilm in 2012.

Former Naughty Dog developer Hennig joined EA Visceral last year, sparking speculation that a secret new Star Wars game was in the works.
