I went to Stern for a media day event and spent hours meeting the crew, playing Star Wars Fall Of The Empire, and hanging with tons of other creators. Along with a full factory tour, I’m now fully briefed on all things Spike 3 and Star Wars. Fire your questions away and join me as we watch Stern’s live reveal of the game and talk about it together.
