Star Wars Episode VII: Shadows of the Sith

Star Wars Episode VII: Shadows of the Sith was a proposed video game concept by W. Haden Blackman, then–Creative Director of LucasArts, for development at the studio. The game would have featured the Jedi Ben Skywalker as the protagonist as he discovered new Force powers and faced off against a member of the House of Solo.

The project did not make it past an initial pitch phase in 2004, but the broad concepts for the game were reused in the video game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Blackman later attempted to retool the idea into a new video game with a similar title, Shadow of the Sith, but it too ultimately did not see further development.
