This Side effect mod aims to be the galaxy's superlative Star Wars game

An ambitious modding team is trying to twis Fallout: New Vegas into a grand multi-planet space Opera with total conversion mod Maven Wars Open Worlds.

While currently unfinished and soundless in evolution, Star Wars Open Worlds surfaced with a new trailer earlier today, showcasing a shockingly huge range of locations, characters and scenarios. Ships winged above a Coruscant sky. Open warfare on Tatooine's comeuppance. Imperial walkers stomping through alien jungles.

It's all very impressive, if reasonably over-reliant on stake-processing shaders. In typical Fallout fashion it's not all bombastic action either—we see meetings in grimy underworlds and tongue-shined Imperial starships.

According to the mod's Itch page, Star Wars Open Worlds hopes to feature 12 planets to explore, triplex factions to join, NPC companions and will let you customise characters across various estrange species, in a taradiddle that set during "the very early years of the galactic empire."

Developers Karim Najib and Tank_Girl444 are setting some stratospheric expectations, and have no solid release window estimate to date. The Bethesda modding scene is also nothing if not familiar overly ambitious mod projects—this could be something we're following for a 10, if Disney doesn't attain it down ahead then.

But exploring Star Wars from a Fallout view is one hell of a pitch. And if you're fascinated in catching up happening growing hitherto, the modders occasionally place update videos over on YouTube.

20 days past, Nat played Jet Set Radio set Future for the first time—and she's not stopped intellection almost games since. Joining Microcomputer Gamer in 2020, she comes from three years of independent reportage at Rock Newspaper Scattergun, Waypoint, VG247 and more. Embedded in the European indie vista and having herself developed critically acclaimed small games like Can Androids Pray, Nat is forever looking for a new curiosity to scream about—whether it's the incoming best indie darling, or simply someone modding a Scotmid into Black Mesa. She's also played for a capitalist Splatoon team, and unofficially appears in Apex Legends below the pseudonym Horizon.
