Star Wars 1313, a new game in the Star Wars series, has been revealed by LucasArts on Thursday.

In Star Wars 1313, players are in control of a deadly bounty hunter as he uses an arsenal of exotic weaponry to hunt down his marks and uncover the truth surrounding a criminal conspiracy in Level 1313, a ruthless criminal underground deep below the surface of the planet of Coruscant.

Star Wars 1313 emphasizes epic set pieces and fast-paced combat with a hero who uses human skills and gadgets, rather than supernatural Force powers, to make his way through this dangerous world.

“We’re excited to share one of the projects LucasArts has been hard at work developing,” said LucasArts President Paul Meegan. "Star Wars 1313 dives into a part of the Star Wars mythos that we’ve always known existed, but never had a chance to visit. We are committed to bringing the best gameplay experience and visual fidelity to life and I truly believe the work we are showcasing at E3 will speak for itself."

The game will make its official debut at next week's Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3)  in Los Angeles. There are no details yet on platforms or release date.
