If you’re a fan of the animated tv show Star Wars: The Clone Wars, then you’ll be happy to know that LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars has appeared on the Mac. Starting today, Feral Interactive retails this tongue-in-cheek take on the Clone Wars era for both digital download and box format.

Developed by TT Games and LucasArts, LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is the third LEGO Star Wars game, and the seventh LEGO game overall, brought to the Mac by Feral Interactive. The game features 16 different star systems, 32 story-based missions, 48 bonus levels and over 100 playable characters, making it the biggest LEGO Star Wars video game to date.

Players will combat Separatist forces aboard the massive battleship the Resolute, blast off in their favorite ships in multi-layered space battles, and destroy hundreds of droids in strategic ground battles new to the series. Whether Padawan or Jedi Master, players of all skill levels can take on the Sith in single player mode, or with their friends and family during drop in/drop out coop play.

The game features a brand new customizable Arcade Mode which claims to offer some unique head-to-head combat. New character abilities are also available, such as Squad Command, Lightsaber Slicing, Lightsaber Jumps, long-distance Jedi Attacks and Grapple Tie-Ups. All gameplay modes can now be accessed from a new, easy-to-navigate hub that lets users engage in multi-ship space battles.

Minimum system requirements include:

• Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later
• 1.4GHz Intel Mac
• 2GB RAM
• 128MB or better graphics card. The following graphics cards are NOT supported: ATI X1xxx series NVIDIA 7xxx series and Intel GMA series.

LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars for the Mac will retail in North America for US $29.99, £19.99 (inc. VAT) in the UK and €24.99 (inc. VAT) throughout Europe. You can download it directly from many sites worldwide, include Feral Interactive and the Mac App Store. It is also available to purchase in box form now through Feral’s online store.
