LucasArts sent us the first in a series of feature stories about
LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy, the sequel in the works at
Traveller’s Tales. This first diary presents the plans and efforts to improve the original game,
Lego Star Wars, released last spring (press 'read more' for details). LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (working title) follows the Rebel Alliance’s battle to dismantle the Galactic Empire and rebuild a galaxy in pieces. For the first time ever, levels feature vehicles and creatures that players can ride or exit at will. Also, in LEGO Star Wars II’s Free Play mode, gamers can customize more than 50 new playable characters by mixing and matching body parts, to build their own LEGO Star Wars heroes. New
screenshots have been added in our gallery.
