IGN's interview with LucasArts producer Ken Fox offers the first gameplay information (and screenshot) of
Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The one-on-one lightsaber fighting game, developed by Krome Studios, makes heavy use of Wii Remote motion controls to simulate swordfighting. You know, just like that other
Star Wars Wii game coming out. Strangely, Fox's discussion of this new game seems to omit
The Force Unleashed -- which is
also a
Star Wars game developed by Krome which features a duel mode
. "The promise of a Wii lightsaber game has hung in the air since the Wii hit the shelves," Fox said. "We think this is the game that delivers on that promise."
Sort of implies that the
other one isn't going to deliver, doesn't it? Is LucasArts trying to shift focus away from
The Force Unleashed? Should we be worried about its quality? We only say this because since its
reveal,
The Force Unleashed has been positioned as The Wii Lightsaber Game.
