A new job listing has shed further light on EA's upcoming AAA open-world Star Wars game, revealing a title that sounds a bit like Destiny.

According to said listing, EA is on the hunt for a Lead Online Designer to join the team at EA Vancouver to deliver a "unique online experience."

Similar to the studio's previous job listing, this new one mentions that the game won't just feature online play, but a single-player narrative. And while neither of these things are all that surprising, the wording on how EA wants to deliver both does potentially peel back some layers on the project.

According to the job listing, said Lead Online Designer will "work with the Creative Director, Game Director and Lead Writer to align all connected features with the single-player narrative and gameplay into a cohesive experience."

The key here is the mention of "align," which seems to suggest that the developer is looking to blend both the single-player narrative into online play for a "cohesive experience." If that pitch sounds familiar, it's probably because it sounds quite a bit like Destiny.

As you may know, this new project comes off the back of EA cancelling Visceral Games' single-player open-world Star Wars game – and shuttering the studio in the process – back in 2017. At the time of the announcement – which spawned a pretty massive backlash – EA stated it wanted to shift the game to be a broader experience that could offer more player agency and options.

That said, it appears EA Vancouver's game is a re-imagination of what Visceral was working on, and likely contains a bit of that single-player narrative it was crafting. Or maybe it doesn't, who knows.

Whatever EA Vancouver's mystery Star Wars project is, it sounds like it's pretty early in development, aka we probably won't be hearing about it for quite a bit.
