Star Wars fans may be none too pleased today, not just because of the closure of LucasArts and the subsequent cancellation of unreleased games, but because Star Wars 1313 was set to be a Boba Fett game.

A single tear may be running down the face of Star Wars fans upon seeing the first, and possibly only, footage of Star Wars: First Assault.  Revealed mid last year through a trademark registration, First Assault has been speculated about wildly only for us to finally get a sense of what the game was when it appeared in a XBLA listing.  Since then we’ve only heard bad, though in a depressing sort of way, news about First Assault and this new gameplay trailer serves a

Even though it’s one of the most recognizable and popular franchises in the world, Star Wars simply can’t catch a break when it comes to the world of video games.  After starting out strong in the mid 1990s, the Star Wars franchise has slowly declined in recent years through a derth of interesting releases.

LucasArts may finally be ready to reveal some of the projects they’ve been developing over the last two years as an interesting trademark registration has surfaced.  The video game branch of the George Lucas empire already announced the continuously enigmatic Star Wars 1313 earlier this year, but now we may see an even more action oriented Star Wars game in a possible FPS title.

After putting us in a lull for the past three years LucasArts certainly got our hearts pumping with the reveal of Star Wars 1313. While it may have been yet another Star Wars based video game, it was nice to see LucasArts take a different direction with the franchise that thankfully wasn’t based around the Clone Wars or potentially leave the door open for more established lore to be bastardized through inept writing.
