Arnie Jorgensen, Alex Thomas and John Watson just spent over five years working on Star Wars: The Old Republic at BioWare. After which the perfect palette-cleanser seems to be leaving the studio to make their own game.
That game is The Banner Saga, which the trio’s studio Stoic describes as “role-playing meets turn-based strategy, wrapped into an adventure mini-series about vikings.”

It’s “coming soon”.
