LUCASARTS CONFIRMS FORCE UNLEASHED TO BE RELEASED ON PC

Upcoming next-gen game from LucasArts to ship for PC in 2008

SAN FRANCISCO, CA. — April 1, 2007 — Originally planned to be solely released for consoles and handheld platforms, the upcoming next-gen game being developed in-house by LucasArts, The Force Unleashed, has been confirmed by LucasArts to be released on PC shortly after its console version release in Q2 of 2008. This unexpected move has been reportedly due to extreme fan demand for a PC version.

“Originally the game was only going to be developed [by LucasArts] for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. But after enormous cry for a PC version, we have decided to begin development on the PC version of Force Unleashed,” said LucasArts President Jim Ward. When asked about euphoria and Digital Molecular Matter (DMM) being implemented on the PC, he responded, “While I don’t know all the technical specifications, it is my understanding that both euphoria and DMM will be able to run smoothly on the PC by 2008.”

“The game will be nearly identical on the PC to its console counterparts,” Ward reassured. “All PC games have their differences such as controls and this one is no different.”

The game will be shown at the Electronic Entertainment Exposition (E3) July 11-13, 2007, in Santa Monica, California.

    *grin* Not that any PC gamer in their right mind would actually care about another console port. ;) Fess up!!! What you *REALLY* want from LucasArts is another Jedi Knight or Republic Commando game…! ;)

    Can you imagine stepping into Kyle’s boots again, picking up a saber, and jumping into a world realized in modern tech like Unreal Engine 3!? And, if the very thought of leading Fixer/Sev/Scorch through a version of Kashyyk rendered in CryEngine2 does not make you drool outright, you are not a real PC gamer… ;)
