A brand new animated series focused on Darth Maul leading the criminal underworld one year after The Clone Wars was announced, titled 'Maul: Shadow Lord', and features the return of Sam Witwer! Maul isn't alone, as the show revealed his new apprentice is a red-skinned Twi'lek strongly hinted to be the fan-favorite Legends character Darth Talon, potentially bringing her into the official Disney Canon! Respawn Entertainment and Bit Reactor unveiled 'Star Wars: Zero Company', a new turn-based tactical strategy game akin to XCOM set near the end of the Clone Wars, featuring a diverse squad including an Umbaran Mercenary who may or may not be miffed still from the events of The Clone Wars Umaran Arc! Hayden Christensen is confirmed to be returning as Anakin Skywalker for Ahsoka Season 2, continuing his Force Ghost journey, while the critically acclaimed Andor series is running high in its second and final season! Star Wars Visions is getting a Volume 3, alongside the exciting reveal of a full spin-off series dedicated to 'The Ninth Jedi' short! All this Star Wars Madness and more on Neo-Reality Collective!
