Alright, we’ve all wondered what it would be like to duke it out videogame style with a working-lightsaber (though these won’t leave you with any cauterized wounds), and with Kinect power this is going to deem a possibility.
At first we thought the Wii had the potential for the first sign of a lightsaber-esque control, but Xbox seems to have made it happen first, after they released their “Lightsaber Duel” trailer today.
In the game, you become the controller; you are the Jedi. But one question remains: how will Kinect replicate the Force Push and Force Pull? Seems impossible to make someone run towards or away from you—but we’re confident they’ve got something in mind.
The release for Kinect’s Lightsaber Duel has yet to be determined, but we’re guessing Microsoft will hint at an official date sometime closer to spring.
