Well, here we have it Battlefrontians. LucasArts has announced their new franchise last night on GTTV (via Spike TV) as Star Wars: 1313. Although not much information has been released about Star Wars: 1313, the synopsis definitely shows some promise.
Named for Level 1313, a ruthless criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet of Coruscant, the game puts players in control of a deadly bounty hunter as he uses an arsenal of exotic weaponry to hunt down his marks and uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy. Star Wars 1313 emphasizes epic set pieces and fast-paced combat with a hero who uses human skills and gadgets, rather than supernatural Force powers, to make his way through this dangerous world.
This isn’t the game I was hoping for, but it sounds like it could be pretty good, and hopefully it will be something that will hold us over until they give us Battlefront 3.
Here is the video from GTTV:

LucasArts announces Star Wars: 1313,
It’d be interesting to see if there’s multiplayer. If it’s a third-person shooter ala Bounty Hunter, I’m afraid this might be as close as we get to a Battlefront game during this generation of consoles.
Wow Lucasfarts you stink like chewbacas big poo poo you should of gave us battlefront3 looks like I’m going to have to play Cod the rest of my video game days bye battlefront3 I gave up I don’t know how Lucasfarts is still in business oh wait because you make a game look so cool then it stinks like chewbacas big poo poo my favorite game you guys made on the newer gen that I have is Lego star wars tcs thats pretty sad when I’m 14 and still play Lego games just to get my star wars in I have unofficialy gave up on star wars battlefront3 p.s. read my username in his voice for this article
I reallllllly realllllly hope they have the sense to make this open world too. Imagine, being able to hijack speeders,fly in and out of spacelanes, vertical and horizontal. It would be amazing. Atleast ithink so. Star wars theft auto!
Star Wars Theft Auto would have been awesome!!
GTA: Coruscant?
Has no one considered this possibility? Think about it: this game really could have Battlefront aspects to it. It’s in third-person, it’s a fast-paced action game. What if…..this IS Battlefront III…….and the bounty hunter aspect of it that the article discusses is the single player. AND THEY ARE KEEPING THE FACT THAT IT’S ANOTHER BATTLEFRONT A SECRET!!!
It’s a stretch, I know. It’s probably just me being retarded and grasping at straws to keep my hope alive. Thoughts?
I see what you mean, and I do agree. This would be a game that has an actual campaign where there are objectives and the multiplayer would be relatively the same as battlefront. think about it: the battlefront campaigns sucked balls it had no depth aside from taking the CP and killing the enemy. this franchise could be the introduction to a real campaign and still use a battlefront feel for multiplayer. i think this could be very good
i think if they dont make or have plans to make battlefront 3 everyone needs to get together on star wars day and the next celebration day and chant battlefront 3 until we drill the point home to them
This is the best idea so far. Boycotting wont work cos there are many SW kniect lovers out there.
I think we need another TwitterBomb. The timing would be excellent.
They produce a new game we don’t want; we tell them what we really want.
They can’t ignore us forever.
Yes, pls organise another twitter bomb. We have to do something, BF3 will not be released if we just sit & wait
As of now, I probably not buy a game from lucasarts for a long time. I was one of those long time believers, but now my hope is dead. Dont help me obi-wan-kenobi, I have lost all hope.
Goodbye Battlefront 3.
I have been optimistic and now i realize how foolish I was! I really have not cared much for the idea of boycotting them until now. It looks like this is what we are going to have to do. So how is this going to happen? Is it going to be organized by this site and tuggie or what is going to happen?
First time chirping in. Nitro and all, thanks for keeping the faith alive all this time.
I’m a huge Fett fan and Bounty Hunter is easily in my top three SW games. The BF’s come first though.
I think I am just about done with Lucas Arts. A Bounty Hunter game without one of the Fett’s being the playable character? Boba Fett would be the logical choice as a sequal to the original. It would also further promote the character and the show if they proceed with the live action TV series down the road that Fett is rumored to play a big part in.
I know it’s only been an announcement and the demo won’t be seen until next week. But the fact that the picture is a bounty hunter that is not a Boba Fett makes me feel that LA is shoving another new character down fans throats while ignoring an existing one that clearly has a massive fan base. It’s just stupid.
I’ve put a lot of money in Lucas’s 3.2 billion $ coffers over the years. As a consumer, I’m fed up with the way LA ignores ridiculously obvious fan choices.
I’ve been steaming over the total fiasco that has been BF3, especially after the amount of information that has come out over the past couple of months. LA’s silence on BF3 after 5+ years has been appalling.
I might have been satiated with a space shooter (another one that’s been totally ignored). A bounty hunter game with one of the Fett’s would have knocked me off my chair and given me the impression LA was headed back into the right direction again.
Instead, I just see another example of LA getting further diconnected from it’s fan base and continuing to head in the wrong direction when it comes to the developement of it’s video game properties.
I hope that I get proved wrong because I really wouldn’t mind playing a Star Wars game that I actually want to play one of these years.
Still wanting Battlefront III
