Most who actually love gaming, rather than the tribalism that comes with it, will admit that the 'Console Wars' are silly and childish. To breathe life into them ever-slightly, it's fair to say that on the grand scale of things, PlayStation is usually the company among the big three that tends to come out on top more often than not, with the biggest swaying factor being the long list of PlayStation exclusives over the years.

The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week.

This speculation arose because, in addition to the studio’s name being a clear reference to the franchise, it was discovered that their first project would be based on an existing popular IP. However, publication Inverse later debunked the idea of a new Star Wars game.
