Lucasfilm's recruiting website says the studio is hiring a developer for "an open-world RPG." The mid-level gameplay designer position will work on code and engines for an upcoming (and presumably unannounced) role-playing game set to take place in an open world environment. Other than that, the listing is unfortunately vague, asking only for a talented and experienced individual to work with artists and designers to put code together.

There's no mention of online or multiplayer features at all, and no hint of what platforms (other than PC) the game might be built for or run on. So it's anyone's guess as to what this exactly is yet -- just because features aren't mentioned in the listing just means this engineer won't be working on them, not that they don't exist. But it does seem like LucasArts is working on putting together some kind of RPG, possibly based on one of its current properties, in an open world setting. Which is intriguing news on its own.
