On Reddit, a very detailed and informative rumor surfaced about a new Star Wars game. Electronic Arts has the license, so unsurprisingly they’re working on this. However, according to this person, the Star Wars games might get a new king if all these information below aren’t lies.
This game would be called Star Wars: Imperial Commando, the sequel to 2005’s Republic Commando. There will be a website that will require a login. If you type the username of the clone troopers’ names and a random password, you will see the game’s logo and a countdown to E3. Then, EA‘s E3 presentation would have a roughly three-minute long trailer. Now, let’s get into the bullet point list of the details…
- The release will be at November 2017.
- It will be released for Microsoft Xbox One, Sony PlayStation 4, Nintendo NX and PC.
- The engine will be FrostBite. SW:IC will use FrostBite 4.
- The main focus will be on the campaign, but it will have CoD-like multiplayer. (small maps, fast paced, etc)
- Coop. SW:IC will deliver the best experience when played by 4 players.
- Each player has unique gadgets and features. The leader (RC-1138) can give orders to the others.
- The HUD and the helmet-view will even be more important than in Republic Commando.
- There will be vehicles, only in some few parts of the game (Halo-like).
- Environment will mostly be destructible and take effect on the world (Shoot some glass in space = everything will get sucked out)
- Since it’s mostly a story driven game, it will have a huge campaign and a lot of planets in the universe (+20hours).
- There will be an app which can be used as a second screen (like the Fallout 4 Pip-boy) for gadgets/weapons/radar.
If these are all legit information, Electronic Arts will have an outstanding Star Wars game for us next year!
