Lego Star Wars III: Clone Wars has been announced, placing us yet again in blocky heroes based around the Star Wars franchise. Having already covered the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy with Lego Star Wars 1 & 2 the game will focus on the TV animation Clone Wars and the movie of the same name.

 

The game with have several modes, giving players the option to go head-to-head in combat, a co-op mode and a level builder allowing fans to create their own Lego universe outside of the realm of their bedroom floors. Play as either a Jedi or a Separatist with brand new abilities, not quite sure what they are as the list given seems to be the same old moves, but it does have a new navigational hub.

 

Apparently taking the best aspects of the previous games but adding brand new gameplay to help keep these children favourites free of boredom. The game will include all your favourites from the TV show and Movie and some from the rest of the Saga.

 

"LucasArts is an amazing partner, and working with them on the next iteration of the LEGO® Star Wars series continues to be a great experience," said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. "The team at TT is working hard at making this simply the best LEGO® game ever with all new gameplay and features never before seen in a LEGO® game."

 

The game is set to be released on all current gen consoles that’s the Nintendo DS, Playstation 3 PSP, Wii and Xbox 360 and is due out in Autumn 2010.
