LucasArts to announce new Star Wars game franchise soon

Ahead of this year’s E3, GameTrailers TV will showcase a new Star Wars game in development at LucasArts. We’ll first get a look at the concept, name, and team working on this project during the pre-E3 episode of GTTV which airs Thursday, May 31.

The full reveal (including actual game footage) will then take place on Monday, June 4 during Spike’s “E3 All Access Live” special at 7:00pm Pacific. So many trailers, so little time. What’s most interesting to me is that this is specifically being called a new franchise. No Masters of Teräs Käsi II, I take it?

Host Geoff Keighley is in full-on hype mode: “I am blown away by both the caliber of the team on this project and their bold vision for this new ‘Star Wars‘ title. I can’t wait to introduce our viewers to this game and show off the footage that left my jaw on the floor when I first saw it.”
