EW exclusive: first look at the next 'Star Wars' game

Categories: Star Wars, Videogames

Star Wars fans: We have some juicy details about the next game to take place in your favorite galaxy far, far away. Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes takes place between seasons 1 and 2 of the animated Clone Wars series and will feature a wide range of playable heroes, including Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Kit Fisto, and some of the clone trooper characters. You’ll be able to play around with lots of force-enhanced powers and, best of all, work your way through the game cooperatively with a friend. It won’t go on sale until September 15, but LucasArts gave us an exclusive look at the first trailer for the game. Swinging around a lightsaber never gets old, so color me psyched for this one. How does it look to you, PopWatchers?

  • Luke

    Why do all the characters have that weird glow around them?

  • Chris

    Meh. Give me some info on the *other* Star Wars game, which Bioware is making: http://www.swtor.com/

  • The Force

    boo

  • Anon

    Needs more scowl.
    Sorry, waiting on Bioware.

  • Steve

    Yessss, about time we got a good SW platformer! MMORPGs are overrated time-sucks.

  • Pooont

    Suck, this game will.

  • yzzlthtz

    meh. the co-op might be good but…
    Star Wars needs to be more badass. It was badass in the 80s. Now it’s all…just bad. Force Unleashed could have been the visceral dark Jedi game we all craved, but it fell short on a number of counts….now this? bleh.

    “Star Wars needs to be more badass. It was badass in the 80s.”
    Yeah, the blue Muppet in Jabba’s Palace and the Ewoks were “Badass”
    Get off the happy smoke, dickhead.

    The Star Wars game i’m really waiting for is Star Wars Battlefront III. i played BF I and BF II and they both owned!!

  • f23ghost

    i agree with SB_tanker i want battlefront 3. and also Pooont said it right (suck. this game will)! owe yeah the voice over for yoda give me a break! anybody could do it better.

  • AdmiralXizor

    Dude. Why haven’t they come up with an update of X-Wing? So many more fighters now, capital ships, etc. I simply don’t understand why this hasn’t been done.
    With so many more people having high speed internet now, new squadrons would pop up hourly… it would be a phenomenon greater than anything they’re putting out these days.

  • MamoSean

    An X-wing or TIE fighter game is severely overdue. I completely agree that these would be amazing if remade now. Join squads online to fly missions in space. get sent to different battle and stuff…

  • MamoSean

    Hey Wookiee Vomitorium,
    Max Rebo is a badass Muppet when you compare him to the likes of jar jar. I think he meant more of the story and the young adult/adult feel to the original trilogy as opposed to the kid/young adult feel of what comes out now. Lay off the idiocracy pills. And while you at it, stop stuffing you face, and masturbating in your Mom’s basement, Dickhead
