Star Wars 1313

The team behind Star Wars 1313 had it rough. When the project first began development, LucasArts would continuously interfere. Creator George Lucas reportedly suggested the game to tie into Star Wars: Underworld, a live-action TV series. Then, just two months before its reveal at E3 2012, Lucas wanted the game to change direction completely and star a younger Boba Fett. The end would truly come when LucasArts was acquired by Disney and the development team was eventually let go.
