New Footage Of Canceled Star Wars 1313 Game Shows Boba Fett On The Hunt

New footage of the canceled Star Wars: 1313 has been unearthed by The Vault, showing off gameplay of the franchise’s iconic bounty hunter Boba Fett as he explores several locations. While some of the video shows the game off in an early stage of production, it’s still a fascinating look at some gameplay elements, including exploration of a bar, chasing down targets, and establishing Fett’s reputation as a no-nonsense gun-for-hire.

Star Wars 1313 was originally revealed at E3 2012, and would have seen players descend into the criminal underworld of the Galactic Empire’s capital city, Coruscant. A year later, and the project was officially dead after Disney’s acquired the Star Wars franchise and put all ongoing projects on hiatus. The location of the game–Level 1313–eventually made its way into several episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Interestingly, Fett was reportedly never meant to be the star of the game. As author Jason Schrier noted in his book Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, LucasArts’ leadership was instructed by Star Wars creator George Lucas to replace the original protagonist with a pre-empire version of Fett. This came well into the development of Star Wars 1313, after LucasArts had cast actor Wilson Bethel, established a backstory for his character, and had spent significant time on his technical development.
