LucasArts making 'several exclusive announcements' at Comic-Con @ Gaming Target

Written by John Scalzo on July 20, 2009

News: A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away... fanboys began to speculate.

Comic-Con 2009 is almost here (the convention begins this Thursday, July 23) and LucasArts has announced they will have a huge presence at the show.

The big news will occur during the company's Star Wars Spectacular keynote speech on Friday at 5:15 PM (8:15 Eastern Time). According to LucasArts, the speech will include "several world exclusive announcements". The announcements could be almost anything... Star Wars: Battlefront 3... The Force Unleashed 2... a new Jedi Knight game. The possibilities are endless (and pure speculation at this point).

But they also plan to have plenty of other games available at the show including Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes, Lego Indiana Jones 2, Star Wars: The Old Republic and Secret of Monkey Island...
