Leaked trailer for Star Wars: First Assault

**Blacksite** · 03-15-2013

For the rumored PSN/XBLA title, predecessor to Battlefront 3.

LucasArts never officially announced Star Wars: First Assault, but it was scheduled to launch this spring as a multiplayer shooter, according to Kotaku. First Assault is still in production, but it's caught up in a company-wide freeze following Disney's purchase of LucasFilm in September, according to reports.

And it looks something like this, Kotaku says. The website has two pieces of footage that it says are from First Assault, both cut from a trailer used internally late last year; the gameplay video shows action mostly in first-person, though there are a few scenes of third-person fighting. It's all in-game footage, including a few bugs and incomplete art, and it is an "older" version of the game, Kotaku says.

Looks pretty interesting for a PSN title. Will keep my eyes out for this one. Love me some Star Wars.

Bit too under wraps for it to seem legit!
Even the lucasarts logo looked fan made?

Will buzz my balls off if real tho

Looks like leftover BFIII stuff or something.

They should really just get to making that game.../

**T0PGUN** · 03-15-2013

Yep, Lucasarts really dropped the ball with that one! Would have sold a ton

No idea what's going on at lucasarts the last few years maybe they have enough money and don't want any more

I think we will get that with 1313. Game looks sick. I'm just waiting for KOTOR 3. Still clinging to hope after the MMO flopped.

There's a rumor they're working on Battlefront 3 now. I'd love to see that on next-gen hardware. I also wish they'd get around to making Republic Commando 2; the first game was amazing.

I never got around to Republic Commando. I heard very good things though.

I was just about to suggest that. Both would be preferred but I'll take one of the two.

You should! I played that last year and thought it was very fun.

**ps3freak18** · 03-15-2013

That was from ps2 days right?

**Blacksite** · 03-15-2013

I think you guys missed the part where Disney froze their Star Wars-related content. It would explain why there are no updates on Star Wars 1313.

**ps3freak18** · 03-15-2013

Yeah I was not excited about the Disney acquiring the Star Wars franchise. I just can't help but think they are going to drive Star Wars in the ground on all fronts.

Give. us. BATTLEFRONT. Damn, companies these days hate money.

They don't want to spend money to make it.

**podsaurus** · 03-15-2013

I don't know if that was on ps2 freak. I played it on my PC.

Yes. It's on Steam; grab it for 5$ or so when it's on sale. The game has aged in some ways, though I think it's still worth playing. The squad AI (you always have a squad of 4) was fantastic. I remember being blown away at the time because they weren't only just competent, but instead downright intelligent. They cornered enemies, took cover, sought turrets and health automatically, actually listened to your orders, etc. Probably the best friendly AI I've seen yet.

**ps3freak18** · 03-15-2013

Cool! Thanks for the heads up Rapture. I'll be sure to check it out.

What makes you say that? People were up in arms about Marvel and that's turning out great.

**ps3freak18** · 03-15-2013

I just can't help but feel the Star Wars legacy is going to lose its touch. Could just be looking to much into it but I just don't want the brand to lose itself. Although like you said could turn out like Marvel did. That has worked out handsomely.

The thing about it, Disney will just likely be producers again and give the studios full support while they do their thing

Hopefully so I dont want to see Star Wars die a slow milked death.

Well you could argue that SW is more milked than any current video game series. I'm going to pick on CoD because it's easy and everyone does it lol. SW has: movies, video games, action figures, legos, various collectable items, bed sheets, clothing and countless other outlets to rake in the cash. CoD comparably has very little sitting next to SW I believe. So you could say that SW is way over milked and has been for decades.

Anywho I would still like to see another SW game because it's been a while since I played one.

More or less I'm thinking along the lines of the movies. I just don't want to see 17 spinoffs and it lose its charm. That's another discussion for another thread. But you are right.
