Star Wars Hits PlayStation Home
LucasArts is bringing the Mos Eisley cantina to the Sony's PS3 social space, complete with band, bartender, and more.
The virtual space is available tomorrow, and LucasArts will also make costumes and furniture items available for sale in the company's store in Home. You can not only lounge around the Cantina and push around young farm boys, but it will also host classic The Empire Strikes Back trailers, chats with LucasArts developers, and more.
LucasArts is also hosting a special Star Wars contest in Home for a strictly limited edition Empire Strikes Back furniture item for your personal Home space – this item won't even be available in the store! To win, all you have to do is look for pieces of a secret voucher code that can be found on posters in Home's central plaza over the next few weeks. The first 10,000 users that put the code together and redeem it will get the furniture piece.
Here's a list of some of the items that'll be available in LucasArts' Home store
- Imperial Snow Trooper Suit (male/female)
- Rebel Snow Speeder Pilot (male/female)
- Han Solo Hoth Outfit (male)
- Leia Organa Hoth Outfit (female)
- Chewbacca Wookiee Outit (male/female)
- C-3PO Protocol Droid Outfit (male/female)
- AT-AT Pilot Outfit (male/female)
- Empire Strikes Back 30th Anniversary Logo T-Shirt (male/female)
- Empire Strikes Back Logo Poster (furniture Item)
- Empire Strikes Back Concept Art Poster (furniture item)
- Star Wars Celebration V Poster (furniture item)
Here are some of the Home avatars available, including female versions of C-3PO and a AT-AT pilot
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
