Did you hear about the Star Wars game that disappeared into the void? Before the loss of Lucas Arts and most of its properties 1313 was to feature Boba Fett as a main character.
Well the cancelled Star Wars game, Star Wars 1313 has resurfaced in an article by IGN.
An unnamed source gave IGN a look at a demo that would have made it to this year’s E3 if the studio did not go under of course. Everyone’s favourite Bounty Hunter would be the star, and would centre around him before the Mandalorian armour, and tells the story of how he came to acquire it and the story of the Galactic badass (seriously it sounds like Mega Man X and Star Wars got together and made a Space Baby) and get this there was even meant to be a TV show that ran alongside the game and it would have detailed different crime families on Coruscant.
Now this is just another kick in the teeth about the title, I mean I saw the original demo before Boba Fett was included and I was sold, it looked amazing, with huge set pieces and it smacked of Unchartered with a similar style of gameplay, and did I mention it was in space?
…I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced… sorry that was me!
