Star Wars: Zero Company, developed by Bit Reactor and Respawn Entertainment, is set to release next year and aims to explore lesser-known aspects of The Clone Wars. Unlike previous narratives featuring famous Jedi, this game delves into the shadowy conflicts occurring alongside the main events, emphasizing strategy and subterfuge. Its teaser trailer introduces a grizzled character who hints at the unseen layers of war. The gameplay is inspired by titles like XCOM, featuring a mix of diverse factions including Mandalorians and clones, promising fresh narrative opportunities in the Star Wars universe.
Some five years after The Clone Wars' awesome series finale, it seems that fans are getting another story set during this pivotal period in the timeline. And while fans have already seen so much of this conflict from several different perspectives, it seems that LucasArts Games and developer Bit Reactor have found just the way to make it well-worth a retread.
The teaser trailer released during Star Wars Celebration last week features a grizzled space-cowboy-type speaking to the more grounded exploits of the Clone Wars. The thankless skirmishes and critical subterfuge taking place on the edges of the galaxy, the ones that aren't led by heroes of the Republic like General Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker.
Truth is, there's a war you don't see. The one fought in the shadows. The war beneath the war. A war that's won with the right strategy, surveillance cyphers, good old fashioned sabotage.
But what excites me most about Zero Company is the opportunity to tell fresh stories about the weirdest Star Wars aspect imaginable.
