Star Wars: Empire at War puts the power to command an entire war for the Star Wars galaxy at your fingertips, with battles focused on action-packed combat rather than tedious resource gathering. Set a few years before the events of Episode IV A New Hope, LucasArts’ new PC game lets players wage war on ground and in space, as well as experience the creation of the Rebel Alliance, the strengthening of the Empire and the beginnings of the Galactic Civil War.
Rated “T” for Teen by the ESRB, Star Wars: Empire at War Collector’s Edition will be available at select retailers with a suggested price of $59.95. For more information on the game and to download the new demo, log onto the official product website at www.empireatwar.com.
