#STAR WARS 1313 GAMEPLAY TRAILER CODE#

The pitch was to recover whatever code and developers were left of the game and begin once more at Visceral, one of EAвЂ™s development studios behind games in the Dead Space and Battlefield series. In a last-ditch effort to save Star Wars 1313, a ragtag team of ex-LucasArts developers set up and prepared a detailed and passionate presentation. On April 3 of the following year, the company shut down LucasArts and all of its projects, instead signing a 10-year contract with Electronic Arts to make its big budget Star Wars games. Then, in October 2012, Disney made a certain $4 billion purchase. Even with the long road ahead of them, the energy around the game compelled LucasArts to move forward with it, and made them feel more confident that, however bumpy the road, this was a game that was eventually going to appear on store shelves. As this would practically throw out the gameвЂ™s entire story up to this point, developers begged him to reconsider, but his mind was made up, and thy will be done, the game now needed to start practically from scratch months before it was planned to be revealed at E3 2012.Дespite knowing the majority of it would be thrown out, the team continued to heavily crunch on the E3 demo, which when showcased, garnered an outpour of excitement and earned many placements on вЂњBest of E3вЂќ lists. The biggest change came when Lucas decided that instead of playing as previously unknown bounty hunters, Star Wars 1313 should star the best-known hater of Sarlacc Pits, Boba Fett himself. An order from Lucas may as well have been a directive from God for LucasArts, and if George FrigginвЂ™ Lucas wanted you to throw out months of crunch in order to change something that affected the entire levelвЂ™s design, then thatвЂ™s what you did. However, as his filmsвЂ™ multiple versions would indicate, his revisionist tendencies often got the better of him, which made progress on the game nearly impossible. One of the biggest obstacles in LucasArtsвЂ™ way: George Lucas himself.Д«efore his retirement in 2012, Lucas was actively invested in the studio carrying his name, especially Star Wars 1313.

Even more ambitious, they aimed to have the game out around the launch window of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, taking full advantage of the extra horsepower the platforms would provide. Instead of being mafia members, the premise now had players take control of a bounty hunter, with ambitious hopes of imitating Naughty DogвЂ™s top-of-class narrative adventure structure. ThatвЂ™s how the idea for Star Wars 1313 came to be in 2010, named after the CoruscantвЂ™s underworldвЂ™s 1313th level. Even after Underworld was deemed too expensive to produce, the idea behind a similar type of game lived on. To fit this gritty, grimy setting, LucasArts, the team behind traditionally kid-friendly point-and-click games such as The Secret of Monkey Island and Sam and Max Hit the Road, had a major shift in genre, aiming to imitate the cover-shooter gameplay of the Gears of War series. Like the show, the game would depict a more mature side of the Star Wars galaxy, where crime and violence were rampant between mafia groups living underneath the crust of the planet Coruscant.

But before official work on The Mandolorian even began, something very, very similar nearly became a reality.ДЄs detailed in a chapter from Bloomberg News videogame reporter Jason SchreierвЂ™s 2017 book, Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, development studio LucasArts had tentative plans for a videogame tie-in to George LucasвЂ™s ill-fated TV series, Underworld, all the way back in 2009. To the publicвЂ™s knowledge, no such game is in development. ItвЂ™s almost as if this show were designed to be a videogame, or at least to have a videogame tie-in that many are begging Disney to make happen. Multiple scenes and scenarios revolve around completing side-quests in exchange for armor or weapon upgrades, or what could be described as story progress. The constantly helmeted protagonist Din Djarin lends an uncommon level of anonymity to the character, a common trait in games that invite players to imagine themselves taking the role of its main character.

Since its first episodes in 2019, people have immediately noticed how much like a videogame The Mandalorian is, and thatвЂ™s not an insult.
