LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is a LEGO Star Wars Video Game released in 2011 by Traveller's Tales and published by LucasArts. It can be played on the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, Playstation 3, PSP, Xbox 360 and Windows PC. The game was first announced on February 8, 2010, and follows the events of the ending of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones and the first two seasons of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV series. Several new features were introduced, such as head-to-head player combat, as well as new abilities like lightsaber slicing and squad command.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
Like past LEGO games, players control minifigures, controlling them to make them run around, jump, and attack enemies. Most characters, in addition to attacks and weapons, also have additional abilities, such as grappling or using the force. Players may play as one character at a time, switching between the available characters. Free Play, made possible after completing a level in Story Mode, also allows switching between any character currently unlocked and bought. There are 20 story missions and 40 bonus levels to play through. Through playing the levels and bonus missions, players also unlock gold bricks. A gold brick is unlocked when a level is completed, when all minikits are found, and when "True Jedi" is achieved.
The game includes characters from both series of the Clone Wars, as well as some from the rest of the saga. New character abilities include squad command, lightsaber slicing, lightsaber jumps, long distance Jedi attacks and grapple tie-ups, picking up droids, and stepping on certain pads in which Jedi perform "combo moves" to destroy certain objects. The game also features an updated character creator, allowing players to make their own characters.
Like the other TT LEGO games recently produced, the game features an easy to navigate "central hub", where players can choose to purchase upgrades and select levels to play. The hub for LEGO Star Wars III is the Star Destroyer Resolute,[3] though the player also has access to the Invisible Hand at some point, where they may find sith- and Separatist-oriented characters and missions. Players cross between hubs using ships, and in doing so, may also partake in space minigames with the starfighters they purchase. In addition, gaining gold bricks unlocks new areas in each hub.
A new feature included in the game is player-versus-player combat, where each player will build LEGO bases and defend them.[3] Vehicle levels have also been upgraded slightly. Now the player can land their ship and begin fighting on foot.
The game is to be considered the most detailed LEGO game ever to be put into production up until that point. Details include being well polished with realistic lighting, shadows and textures. The game has sharper graphics and can render over 200 characters on screen at once.[4]
