It’s a sad day today for all gamers as Disney has shifted Lucas Arts from a development studio to a licensing studio – resulting in a number of lay offs – and High Moon Studios suffered from lay offs right when Deadpool was about to get released. Do note everyone that none of these two studios are shutting down, although you could say that about Lucas Arts. However, Lucas Arts have not developed any memorable game in a long time and since that studio is now turned into a licensing studio, we may see more Star Wars games than you may think.

Kotaku is at it again. After unveiling the first screenshots of Star Wars: First Assault, the big K is back with the first leaked footage from this multiplayer downloadable game.

Anyway, you can view the – short in length – leaked gameplay footage below, so go ahead and take a look. Special thanks to ‘Ghost Rider LSOV’ for spotting it!
