Lucasarts have announced that anticipated lightsabre/Wii remote wielding action title Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will be landing on the Wii next spring.

The Wii Remote will become your lightsabre while the nunchuck extension can be used to attack others with various "Force" related powers.

For all those statistics nerds out there the game is set inbetween Episode III and Episode IV and could bridge some gaps in storyline.

Also to keep the players happy a multiplayer mode has been included but whether this will be playable online is looking somewhat unlikely.

"Wii is a great platform for The Force Unleashed, because the console's motion-oriented controllers really bring the game to life," said Jim Ward, President of LucasArts. "We've worked hard to make the Wii version of the game unique in order to truly let you unleash the Force."

It's a massive announcement for Star Wars fans. They've been crying out for this for AGES.

Let's just hope the game is half decent.
