'Star Wars 1313' leads players into a "dark and mature world"

Star Wars 1313 will take place in a "never-before-seen dark and mature world" by taking players into a criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet Coruscant.

LucasArts and effects house Industrial Light & Magic are collaborating on the game. It's to be a third-person-perspective action title in which players take on the role of a bounty hunter wading through Coruscant's seedy underbelly.

Not much else is known about the game prior to its E3 showing, not even the target platform(s), though several lead staff have been involved in the two previous Star Wars: The Force Unleased titles, which share Star Wars 1313's penchant for third-person, action-driven experiences.

Those hoping for Star Wars: Battlefront III will have to continue biding their time: original developer Free Radical became Crytek UK after the project was shut down and is now at work on military shooter Homefront 2.
