The Clone Wars Video Games!

Posted By Mike on August 30, 2008

According to IGN and numerous other sites, the LEGO Indiana Jones game that is about to come out features an advertisement for The Clone Wars video game for the Nintendo Wii and the DS to come out in the fall of 2008. The ad also displays a website of www.CloneWarsGame.com that, at this point, just re-directs you over to starwars.com. Click here for the full article with a picture of the ad. More as we get it but yet another reason to be excited for Star Wars this year. Looks like the fall will be brining us more than one Star Wars related video game!


Thanks to everyone who sent over links of the big news


UPDATE: Our friend Jeff ("Obi-Wan's Lost Brother") points out that if you head to www.clonewarsgame.com, you're now taken to the LucasArts site with a picture of Anakin and Obi-Wan and the caption "Check back at the end of this month to find out more"

More info on this game as we get it!

Thanks Jeff!


UPDATE #2: LucasArts has updated CloneWarsGame.com, which is actually 2 games; one coming to the Wii and the other to the DS. See below for the descriptions from the "Game Info" page:

STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS: LIGHTSABER DUELS™ (Wii)
Now everyone can experience the fun and excitement of a Lightsaber fight. Star Wars The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels immerses you in the characters, locations, and epic duels from the all-new Star Wars animated feature film and TV series. Built from the ground-up for Wii™, Lightsaber Duels features an intuitive motion-controlled combat system that puts the Lightsaber™ weapon in your hand. Mastering the Jedi's distinctive weapon is now within any player's grasp.

-Fight the most memorable duels from The Clone Wars feature film and TV series.
-Wield your Wii Remote like a Lightsaber and experience first-hand the unique weapon of the Jedi knights with intuitive controls, so no matter what your gaming experience you can become a Lightsaber master.
-Play with your friends as your favorite Clone Wars hero or villain - from familiar characters like Anakin Skywalker and General Grievous to new faces like Ahsoka Tano and Asajj Ventress - each with a unique fighting style and set of skills.
-Exploit your interactive surroundings to defeat your opponent: slice down pillars and Force throw them against your foe.
-Duel your way through significant Clone Wars locations, such as Tatooine and Teth.

STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS: JEDI ALLIANCE™ (Nintendo DS)
Star Wars The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance takes the player into the world of the all-new Star Wars animated feature film and TV series.

-Play through an original story - exclusive to the Nintendo DS - that expands The Clone Wars series in exciting new directions.
