Years ago, LucasArts was making a Star Wars FPS called Star Wars: First Assault. It was never released, but now the game is playable thanks to fans who found a way to get the game’s closed technical beta working online. People are playing it and posting footage, including popular streamer jackfrags. He posted 10 minutes of gameplay footage from the game and showed off its mechanics.
The game looks pretty polished, and according to developer Patrick Wren, the game was only “months away” from releasing before it was canceled.
Commenting on the newly released footage, Wren said, “It has been wild seeing people play a game I worked on over 10 years ago. It’s been amazing and sad at the same time. But overall, I am grateful people at least get to play a slice of what could have been.”
