Spike TV’s most recent episode of Game Trailers proved to be an eventful one, giving us our first glimpse of what’s ahead for next week’s E3 conference. Among the exciting announcements that were revealed was LucasArts’ newest in-house development project, Star Wars 1313. This third person action adventure title will see players take on the coveted role of bounty hunter.
While specifics regarding the character and story are still being withheld, it was announced that Star Wars 1313 will be a mature darker take on the Star Wars universe showing players “the worst of the worst,” as put by Dave Smith Lead Artist for LucasArts. Everything from crime to intrigue can be expected as players make their way through this seedy sub metropolis (named 1313), on the planet Coruscant.
LucasArts confirmed that they will reveal more details about Star Wars 1313 at E3 next week in Los Angles.
I'm excited to find out more about it. Sounds like the kind of game I've been wanting for a long time. Hopefully it has a strong single player mode. There are plenty of Star Wars games out there (Lego SW, Old Republic MMO, games based on the animated Clone Wars, etc) but I don't want to play any of those. The last time I played a good Star Wars game with a good single player mode was Knights of the Old Republic on the first Xbox. That's way too long for me.
I've been waiting for another good single player Star Wars game for a long time, and I hope this is it. Shouldn't get my hopes up though, it'll probably use Kinect, probably have an online pass, probably be multiplayer in some way, and life will suck yet again in the Star Wars world. lol
