The makers of Star Wars and TimeSplitters are teaming up!

LucasArts have announced an agreement with Free Radical Design to develop a new video game for next-generation console platforms. Product and release details will be unveiled at a later date.

"Free Radical has always been about titles with great gameplay and innovative design," said Peter Hirschmann, Vice President of Product Development at LucasArts. "In the battle for videogame quality, these guys are at the front of the line. This team's pedigree is one of the best in the business."

Meanwhile, Steve Ellis, Director of Free Radical had this to gush: "In recent years, LucasArts has established itself as one of the hottest publishers on the planet. We're honored that they're every bit as interested to be working with us as we are to be working with them."

What project could the two be working on? And will it come to Wii? We have all our fingers firmly crossed... More as it breaks!
