Can’t go anywhere without Star Wars? (and then there’s “Can’t go anywhere without Star Wars.”) Anyway, here’s more Star Wars for ya from THQ:

THQ Wireless Inc., a subsidiary of THQ Inc., today announced Star
Wars:® The Clone Wars™ is now available for download globally on
java-enabled mobile phone handsets.In the game, players assume
the role of a clone trooper who is charged with leading his squad
through 15 action-packed missions on three different planets to find
those responsible for a vicious ambush and to discover the Separatist
Army’s secret weapon. Travelling through unique terrain features such
as climbable walls, bunkers, tunnels, and caverns, the player will
battle four types of droids controlled by the Separatist Army.
Throughout the mission, players interact with familiar favorites from
the Star Wars movies like Obi-Wan Kenobi and General Grievous and new
characters from the hit television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars,
such as Ahsoka Tano, Clone Trooper Denal, and Clone Captain Rex.

The
release of Star Wars: The Clone Wars mobile game coincides with the
worldwide debut of the LucasArts videogame, which is now available on
Nintendo Wii™ and Nintendo DS™ systems as well as the DVD debut of the
full-length, theatrical feature film Star Wars: The Clone Wars. New
episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, from Lucasfilm animation, debut
Fridays at 9 p.m. on Cartoon Network.

THQ Wireless’ growing line
of successful Star Wars titles span several genres including Star Wars:
The Force Unleashed, the Lightsaber™ Unleashed, the side-scrolling
Revenge of the Sith, space shooter Battle Above Coruscant and action
titles like LEGO Star Wars Mobile and LEGO Star Wars II Mobile.

Ah, the Force truly is everywhere.
