I still remember being called over by one of our Producers to give an early version of this watch. Sat in front of the monitor, headphones on watching intently. It finished and I think the only thing I said was "that was a bit emotional", before hitting the restart button and instantly watching again.
We knew it was going to be our goodbye in some ways, it was a very bittersweet moment.
Then as a studio we went to the cinema to watch Episode IX, they played the trailer before the film started. A fair few members of the Star Wars team certainly had a tear or two at that time.
There are so many stories from the time on the project, of heartbreak, happiness, friendship and hope. The Clone Wars announce at EA Play, embracing our difficult times, acknowledging them and watching what was originally very tough turn into fun memes. I hope one day there's a good forum to talk and share more.
Rest assured that the small team of Rebels working on the game was just as passionate about it as you, and while the team might not be together anymore, I'm confident in saying that the passion and fondness is still there. Good memories for all involved. Thanks for being a part of the journey with us.
