Force Unleashed for PC Announced – For Real!

Some of you may not believe me after my “horrible” April Fools prank a couple years ago, but if you don’t believe me, check the official LucasArts twitter feed. The Force Unleashed is coming to both PC and Mac, with an extra level based on Hoth. The game will be titled the “Sith Edition” and also be released for Xbox 360 and PS3. It is not clear whether the Hoth level will be separate DLC for those who have already bought the game. No word on a release date yet, or whether we will see a Steam release as the twitter post specifies “in stores”. Good news for all you PC people who can finally stop whining, but slightly underwhelming news for a “world exclusive announcement”.

Thanks to Shem for the heads up! You can discuss this story in our forums.
