LucasArts has revealed that the upcoming animated film and television series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars will be inspiring two new games for the Nintendo DS and Wii this holiday season. Star Wars: The Clone Wars combines the cinematic qualities of the Star Wars movies with state-of-the-art computer-generated imagery from artists at Lucasfilm Animation.

“Working on The Clone Wars chapter of the Star Wars Saga has been an exciting endeavor for everyone here at LucasArts,” said Feargus Carroll, project lead for LucasArts Singapore. “The intuitive and accessible gameplay on both the Wii and the Nintendo DS complement one of the most exciting Star Wars adventures yet.”

"Star Wars The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels", exclusively for the Wii, delivers Lightsaber battles while it immerses players in the characters, locations, and epic duels from the all-new Star Wars animated TV series. "Star Wars The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance", developed exclusively for the Nintendo DS lets gamers experience the awesome power when two Jedi join forces to fight as one. With an innovative stylus-based input, controlling the Jedi’s movement and engaging in Lightsaber duels aims to be something quite unique.
