Star Wars: Hunters is a 4v4 arena combat game for mobile and Switch that released in May 2024, and was nominated for a Golden Joystick Award in the (Still Playing Mobile) category.
I worked on this project from May 2021 through May 2025, starting out as a Senior Game Designer and being promoted to Lead Game Designer. My main contributions to the project were:
- Leading day-to-day operations for the Narrative Design Department internally
- Setting text quality and standards
- Owning the style guide and glossary
- Developing the seasonal narrative roadmap
- Regularly meeting with the licensor, Lucas Film Games, to pitch new character and story ideas
- Copyediting all text in game
- Contributing writing to the game: VO scripts, cinematics, character profiles and backstories, and cosmetic text
- I also contributed feature design, acting as Product Owner for the Arena News and Friends features
- Additionally, I led design for an unannounced game mode.
I had some unique opportunities on this project that I’d like to highlight:
- I presented the game on the Live Stage at Star Wars Celebrations and was interviewed for press segments during the event (video clips of this can be found HERE).
- Additionally, I provided the voice over performance for the Ewok Hunter Pilbush.
Here are some examples of my work from this project:
Arena News
The example I’ve chosen to share is our Arena News articles for Season 4: Arena News – Season 4
Hunter VO script
I’ve chosen to share the VO script for our Hunter K-A0S: K-A0S VO Script
Cosmetic Text
This example is a set of cosmetics we released in soft launch that were then present in the game going forward: Soft Launch Cosmetics
