During yesterday’s The Game Awards, Lucasfilm Games and Arcanaut Studios drew back the curtain on their upcoming video game Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, a story-driven single player action RPG led by Casey Hudson, game director of the original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and the Mass Effect trilogy.
