While the decision to leave LucasArts did not happen overnight or come easily, I really feel that now is the best time for me to move on and explore new creative challenges and I look forward to the next phase of my career.
A LucasArts representative also informed IGN that Blackman's departure won't affect The Force Unleashed 2's development.

It's a damn shame too. The Star Wars universe is ripe for incredible games. There is no reason a SW class based team multiplayer game couldn't be as fun as TF2. Or a bounty hunter game set in that universe where the player can choose their contracts and take the game in different moral directions couldn't be as memorable as Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries. The list goes on and on.
