According to a report from Kotaku, EA is rumored to have canceled their unannounced open-world Star Wars game. Seems its due to a mix of the game's troubled dev history, plans not staying on track, and EA getting upset at how long it was taking.

The project, originally known as "Ragtag", then bounced around various teams, directors and re-designs. Conceived by Visceral as a single-player action-adventure, EA wanted to mold Ragtag - completely rebooted by EA Vancouver as "Orca" - into a large-scale open-world game. Kotaku's report suggests that Orca had become so ambitious, that EA's head honchos finally brought the hammer down, wanting a conceptually simpler title that can be pushed out to the public much sooner.
