Star Wars: Identities is not a video game

News PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3

LucasArts confirms.

Whatever Star Wars: Identities turns out to be, Eurogamer can tell you this - it's definitely not a video game.

"I can't comment on rumours or speculation," a LucasArts spokesperson told Eurogamer.

"However, I can confirm that this is not a video game."

Lucasfilm was spotted registering website domains for Star Wars: Identities this week.

With video games ruled out, speculation will turn to films or animated television shows.

Identities may not be the name of a Star Wars video game, then, but we know LucasArts to be at work on one. A LucasArts job posting for an openworld RPG project betrayed this earlier in the year.

LucasArts' last internally-built Star Wars game was The Force Unleashed 2, which fell flat. But the studio has since promised to do better.

Eurogamer play 15 minutes of The Force Unleashed 2.

Isn't this by definition, commenting on "rumours and speculation"?

It could be the project involving Seth Green of which they were talking about some time ago.
If I remember well that project was about telling the story of normal people living under the Empire.
Star wars: Identities could be a proper name for that kind of idea...I guess!

Lucas talked about a live action show about BG characters in the originals and prequels this could be that.

too right force unleashed 2 sucked, even the first one was pushing it. Tweaking the mythos and ultimate introducing a insanely over powered force user and then the fighting not nearly being as smooth as it was in Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy.

@Donaldthescotishtwin possible, but last I heard it was going to cost far too much that they abandoned it.

Stranger things have happened. A star wars themed facebook for starwars fans?

It would get a few million users

Is it a clandestine agency tasked with bringing public conciousness in line with George Lucas's attempts to 'remaster' the past by destroying all copies of his films pre-dating his current edit?

Looks like this is not the videogame we are looking for. We should go about our business and move along.

Actually not too bad idea. Not as a facebook clone directly, but as a some sort of MMORPG/social-network/game clash would be interesting concept.

I reckon it's an ID system for the CosPlay crowd.

[SUCCESS] Of course, it must be a different project.
