Forces of Corruption Has Been Shipped

LucasArts and Petroglyph have announced that "Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption" has been shipped to North American retail stores.

"In the award-winning and best-selling Star Wars: Empire at War, players controlled an entire war for the Star Wars galaxy as the Rebel Alliance or the Galactic Empire. Now, they will face off against both of them in Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption as a brand new third faction. As Tyber Zann, players will stop at nothing as they seek to further the sinister agenda of the Zann Consortium and become the most notorious criminal leader since Jabba the Hutt. With all new tactics like piracy, kidnapping, and bribery, players can control the shadowy forces of corruption in their attempt to rule the Star Wars underworld."

"Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption allows fans to experience the Star Wars universe in an entirely new way," said Nancy MacIntyre, vice president global sales and marketing for LucasArts. "People have always wanted to peek inside the shady underground of the galaxy - home to the spies, bounty hunters and smugglers - and Forces of Corruption finally gives them the chance to do so. The illicit technologies, black-market goods, and underhanded tactics in Forces of Corruption allow players to become gangsters in the wretched hives of Star Wars scum and villainy."
