LucasArts plans to release a Star Wars-themed, Battlefield 1942-style online action title next year.

A LucasArts representative confirmed today that the studio is working on a new Star Wars title which it will unveil early next year. Currently called Star Wars: Battlefront, the game will feature online multiplayer war action a la Battlefield 1942 set in the Star Wars universe.



Although some rumors pegged Battlefront as a PlayStation 2-exclusive title, LucasArts told GameSpot the game would be available on PS2, Xbox and PC. The studio declined to reveal any other details on the game, although a Battle of Hoth map is all but guaranteed.

If you are allowed to use force-powers as well as a Lightsaber then it should be good.

Hopefully it'll be a game that strays away from Jedi for a change.


Like what bounty hunter did, but with war . . .


n'stuff.

One of the only reasons i enjoy Star Wars is the Jedi concept.

You should buy JKII then, if you already haven't.

And perhaps centre your RPing around the Gungan Council. Not to drive you away, or anything. But (to be honest) their Jedi are somewhat more active than ours.

If you plan to RP, that is.

Bradd, Jedi Knight, Jedi Knight II, Jedi Accadamy, Knights of the Old Republic, they should be on your to-buy list if you want Jedi action.

After awhile though, the same thing over and over gets old. Playing a slew of stormtroopers would rock.

Yeah. Or a really good Fleet RTS game.

I've been waiting for a Star Wars fleet game for ages.

I had a great idea for one where you progress up the ranks, from commanding a single Corvette, to a Star Destroyer, to a fleet...

And so on.

And you can operate from the ship itself, and control shields and speed directly, or the "normal" overhead view...

Yeah.
