While playing through The Force Unleashed, did you ever wish that you were Luke Skywalker? I know that you wish you actually were Luke every waking moment, but I meant in the game. Well get ready to live that dream as X-Box Live and the Playstation Network rev up downloadable content (DLC) chock-a-block full of nerd fantasies. Not only will you be able to play as Luke in the campaign mode, but also Obi-Wan Kenobi, Ki-Adi-Mundi, and Kit Fisto. Wipe that sweat off my fellow nerdlings.In other Force Unleashed DLC news, a whole new campaign mission is being added to the PS3 and 360 versions that was originally exclusive to the PS2 and PSP. This second expansion will come later in the year, most likely around Christmas.
Force Unleashed's Executive Producer, Haden Blackman, shed a little light on these developments via the Kotaku gaming blog. Blackman told Kotaku: "I wouldn't rule out any future content on The Force Unleashed. We hope gamers hold onto the game. There is already a lot of replayability built into it. If you enjoy the story and gameplay the first time through, you should enjoy this."
I don't really understand the purpose of playing as Luke when his character at this point in the story is a wee babe, but who cares right? Besides, if enough people download the new content Lucas will probably make a new movie where Luke time travels and hunts down the remaining Jedi only to get amnesia and end up back on Tatooine. You're laughing, but I've seen what Lucas can do... don't put it past him.
We'll let you know the second we find out any more specifics so stay tuned, and may the Force be with you!
