Tonight LucasArts debuted the new Star Wars: 1313, a third-person action adventure game starring a bounty hunter stalking targets on the capital of the Republic, Coruscant. Billed as a "mature" Star Wars title, 1313 takes you deep into the seedy underworld of a densely populated planet, giving you access to an array of "exotic weaponry" in your quest to take down targets and "uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy."

Gameplay apparently involves a lot of cover-based shooting, as well as platforming as you battle your way through the dangerous and titular Level 1313. LucasArts is also bringing in a wide-range of talent for the project, utilizing the many arms of the Lucasfilm business. Industrial Light & Magic, Skywalker Sound and Lucasfilm Animation will all be contributing.

I need to see more of this game to provide an opinion, but I'm willing to give this a shot. The screen is quite good-looking, and I'm glad LucasArts is giving us a new series with an original story. Hopefully the gameplay stacks up.

I'll update with the full reveal in a couple of days.

Thoughts?

It sounds interesting from what I have read about it so far... For once I'm happy they give non-Jedi more treatment. That alone peeks my attention... but I'm worried that the story will turn out bad, Lucas is probably involved and has his demands

Spotted this a few days ago, looks interesting. I don't think I'll regard it with any more interest than the Force Unleashed games (the second of which I never even completed). Part of me shutters as to what LucasArts considers "mature Star Wars"... and another part of me thinks it sounds cool, lol. :rolleyes:

For me, the mature factor is what I find most intriguing about 1313. Sex, violence, and bad language certainly do not equate with a quality narrative, but I feel like a new approach to Star Wars, that is, Star Wars with a more seasoned twist, is something that could result in an interesting story.

We'll see what this brings. A "mature Star Wars" is something that hasn't happened before, and George will have some involvement, I'm sure.

Correct me on this if I'm wrong, but I believe the trailer for 1313 hits tomorrow. I'll update the first post with the video and any new information.

It might be an interesting twist, though there's a big difference between mature atmosphere and mature content. I'd welcome that Star Wars move towards the former for at least one installment, but the latter (language, sex, excessive gore) is dangerous for a lighthearted space adventure series, which is what Star Wars has primarily established itself as.

The game looks absolutely gorgeous... notice the HUD; this is gameplay footage.

I've heard this is on UE4.

Another preview from IGN

There's a video included in the link. I have to say that I'm excited for this one. The gameplay looks tight, and it's only going to get better; 1313 is only in alpha.

I saw this game. But whats up with this "M" rating. You guys, that's not what makes the game good. It doesn't make it bad either. I also am interested in the direction there taking it but that's not really what I need in a good game. If this game has a good solid story and equally solid and awesome gameplay, It'll be good. I've stopped with TFU anyway so it'll be nice to see a new action Star Wars game. In the video he describes it as Star Wars meets Uncharted. If so, this game will be pretty amazing.

I bet this will be in the game as an "easter egg", the game is set on the lower levels of Coroscant, so maybe in some back alley or something, we will find the skeletal corpse of Mace Windu, or maybe his busted up lightsaber

Star Wars 1313 has been officially canceled by the orders of Disney. First The Clone Wars, now this... I don't think Disney buying out the Star Wars name was a good idea.
