Alright, so Darth Revan will not happen.
Not anytime soon at least (they‘d have to change their „LS + DS only“ policy.
Additionally, I keep wondering. Which rights belong where?

I have absolutely no clue, but for example we had the Fantastic 4 and Spider Man issue in the Marvel CU. Could be law issues here as well?
Next, I think there are other characters and eras that could be explored.

There are no “rights” issues with SWGOH like the MCU involved. EA is the owner of The Old Republic which is why we have the characters from that game that we do, Jedi Consular, Sith Trooper, Darth Nihilus... all made up by EA. They could have inserted any of the KOTOR or TOR MMO into the game at any time, but they are choosing not to. The fact that some of those made up toons are stronger than Emperor Palatine should tell you something. So the only thing holding back development of new toons is the EA/CG crew which is most likely driven by in game “balance”.

As far as Marvel MCU vs Fox vs Sony, Sony has rights to Spider-man and he appeared in Civil War because it was in Sony’s interest to partner with Disney. Same reason Ironman was in the Spider-man movie.

Disney just got all rights from Fox to return X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool to the Marvel MCU with the acquisition they just got. This made a lot of people happy, because Stan Lee now has direct control again. Sony will continue to make Spider-man stand alones for now and Spider-man will continue to appear in future Avengers movies. You will never see another mutant movie or TV show released by Fox.
