Brand new screens for Star Wars: Lethal Alliance for DS

And the quest to restore balance in the galaxy continues with Ubisoft‘s next game for the Nintendo DS, Star Wars: Lethal Alliance, a game based on the Star Wars universe which, for the first time, is not created by LucasArts.

The game is set at a time that falls right between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, and the player will be playing as the orange-and-silver female Twi’lek Rianna Saren who will then be accompanied by the trusty droid Zeeo. Together, they must steal a partial set of schematics for the Death Star, and to do so, they must visit places such as Tattooine, Mustafar and the Death Star itself. The catch? Rianna is a thief and not a practitioner of the Arts. Therefore, this means that the player will not have access to things such as Force Powers or a lightsaber, and one will have to depend on guns. However, one can count to run in to characters as Kyle Katarn, Princess Leia, Boba Fett and even Darth Vader himself, so help can be expected from time to time, as well as battles.

The game is expected to be released in December 2006. So while we wait for this game to reach our DS handhelds, here’s some screenshots of what we can look forward to.
