Sony hires Star Wars 1313 creative director

Sony has hired Star Wars 1313 creative director Dominic Robilliard, who has joined Sony Computer Entertainment America as a design director for an unspecified project. Robilliard's arrival at Sony comes after the closure of LucasArts last year, at which time it was believed that Star Wars 1313 had been canceled.

The news comes from Robilliard's LinkedIn page, which unfortunately does not provide any additional information pertaining to what he is now working on at SCEA or which studio specifically he is working for. Some options include Uncharted developer Naughty Dog, God of War outfit Sony Santa Monica, or Sony Bend.

We've reached out to Sony regarding Robilliard's employment status at the company.

Robilliard is no stranger to Sony, as he worked as a lead designer at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe for a period of more than six years from 2001-2008. During his former run with Sony, he worked on franchises like The Getaway and the canceled PlayStation 3 game 8 Days.
