Star Wars 1313

Quote:
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif - May 31, 2012 - LucasArts, a Lucasfilm Ltd. company, announced today a new internally developed videogame franchise, Star Wars 1313™. The game will make its formal debut at the 2012 Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles June 5-7. As players take control of a lethal bounty hunter in a never-before-seen dark and mature world, Star Wars 1313 introduces an integrated development approach by bringing together great artists across the Lucasfilm organization, including LucasArts, Industrial Light & Magic, Lucasfilm Animation Ltd. and Skywalker Sound. A third person cinematic action adventure game, Star Wars 1313 will bring to life the Coruscant underworld, the most dangerous place in the Star Wars™ galaxy.

Named for Level 1313, a ruthless criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet of Coruscant, the game puts players in control of a deadly bounty hunter as he uses an arsenal of exotic weaponry to hunt down his marks and uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy. Star Wars 1313 emphasizes epic set pieces and fast-paced combat with a hero who uses human skills and gadgets, rather than supernatural Force powers, to make his way through this dangerous world.
LucasArts.com | LucasArts Drops Gamers into the Criminal Underworld with New Mature Themed Videogame Franchise, Star Wars 1313™

I'm glad they they are finally making another Star Wars single-player game that doesn't have a Force user for a main character.

This actually sounds good, and I agree, the "force" stuff is getting old.

Not that there's much there, but the official game site is at: LucasArts.com | Star Wars 1313

Sounds cool, the site looks good... I'm officially interested to see what happens.
(I wonder how many people will be named "Dawg".)

Thanks for the heads up, Edav!

I tend to find that Star Wars stuff that doesn't center entirely around space-wizards can be kind of entertaining. Republic Commando comes to mind. I'll have to keep an eye on it, even though I'm really not that fond of Star Wars anymore.

I didn't say that the non-force sensitive ones are the best, I said that they "can be kind of entertaining".

I didn't like KOTOR 2 either.

It is to late, I fear.

After the new episodes we see a whole generation growing up who thinks that Star Wars is shit

I miss the old times of Rebel Assault and TIE-Fighter.

It wasn't the epic that was part one but it was more of the same gameplay which was really cool.

Looks like Uncharted in Space with the main character being a Bounty Hunter instead of a Treasure Hunter.

The game is in Pre-production so it could be a couple of years before it comes out and it could be only for the PS4 and the next Xbox since the demo was running on a NVIDIA 680 graphics card.
