About Us

　　LucasArts is a leading publisher and developer of interactive entertainment software for videogame console systems and personal computers. The company was founded in 1982 by filmmaker George Lucas to provide an interactive element to his vision of a state-of-the-art, multifaceted entertainment company.

 

　　Now, working more closely than ever with sister company Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) since its 2005 move to the Letterman Digital Arts Center in San Francisco, LucasArts continues to advance the art of game design, while still adhering to its original design philosophy: to create games that inspire, challenge and engage players. Consistent with Lucasfilm's movie heritage, each LucasArts release combines stellar gameplay and advanced technologies with vital film elements, such as compelling storytelling, painstaking character development and vivid settings.

 

　　More than two decades after releasing its first game, LucasArts continues to introduce new heroes for the next generation of gamers, consoles and computers. With the last Star Wars movie released in 2005, LucasArts' games play a vital role in the future of the Star Wars brand, as well as the continuation of the classic Indiana Jones adventures. With franchises such as Star Wars Battlefront, LEGO Star Wars and Knights of the Old Republic, which have garnered numerous industry awards, as well as heralded commercial success, fans can expect more great entertainment in a galaxy far, far away.

 

　　Additionally, LucasArts forges partnerships with innovative companies such as NaturalMotion Ltd. and Pixelux Entertainment that provide technologies which further supplement the development skills of LucasArts' own internal talent. Resources from sister companies ILM and Skywalker Sound only enhance LucasArts' lineup of immersive interactive entertainment.

 

　　Now poised to realize George Lucas' vision of the potential for video games as an interactive medium, LucasArts continues to introduce new heroes for the next generation of gamers.
