With news of Disney shutting down LucasArts, there came a disturbance in the Force… as if a million voices cried out in terror.
LucasArts was the developer responsible for such classic games as the Monkey Island series, the Indiana Jones series, Full Throttle & Grim Fandango. And though those games were all critical & commercial successes, it was the Star Wars games that really got fans excited.
From real-time strategy games such as Empire at War, third-person games like The Force Unleashed series, and first-person games of the X-Wing series, Jedi Knight series, and Battlefront series, LucasArts allowed us to explore the Star Wars universe like never before.
Here is some leaked multi-player gameplay footage of a project named “Wingman” or “Version Two” which was allegedly going to be Battlefront III, and it makes the closing of LucasArts all the more painful.
