Here's a very special early look at the brand new game from Bandai-Namco, Star Wars: Battle Pod! This game was just announced this week at the annual New York Comic Con and the game is slated to be released in arcades across America in January of 2015. (Not "January of this year" like I said in the video..sorry.)

Right now this game is exclusive to the New York City Dave & Buster's in Times Square. They have two units available to play and it costs 15.0 points to play. Right now I say this video is a "preview" because as of now the game has only three missions, The Battle of Yavin from A New Hope and two from Return of The Jedi, Speeder Bikes on the forest moon of Endor and the second Death Star Battle. The Hoth Snowspeeder and Darth Vader's Revenge will be added upon the game's final release.

The machine is very unique. It's a design that Bandai-Namco have used before on various games in the Mobile Suit Gundam series and they've proven to be very popular, ranking in as some of the top earning Japanese arcade games. This is actually the second game to use this system in America, the first one being Mach Storm (Which you can also play at the Dave & Buster's in Times Square)

This machine surrounds you in sound with speakers all around you. The game is projected on a egg shaped wall so it takes up your whole field of vision. It's unlike any other Star Wars game that's come out before it.

Right now the game is exclusive to the Times Square Dave & Buster's until November of 2014 so if you're in the area make sure you go and check it out! We'll have more news and updates on this game on our site so be sure to check it out!
