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:
Comments and opinions?
LucasArts announces Star Wars: 1313,

I played Battlefront 1&2 for years and if anything this could turn into a nice
break from something expected.
I just wish that there can be a star wars game that’s actually playable again like Battlefront 1&2. They were the best star wars games in my opinion. Release an updated version compatible with Xbox360 and PS3.
Battlefront3 looks AMAZING
Hopefully this is Battlefront 3 with a different name and a new story…
