Footage reportedly from an early build of Star Wars: Battlefront III has made its way onto the Internet.

The shaky footage was taken from "an internal show and tell Alpha meeting back in November", according to naughtydude1999, the poster who put it up on YouTube.

Battlefront III was thought to be the mystery Free Radical/LucasArts title that never got an official announcement. A Free Radical watermark can be seen on the footage.

Rebellion is now thought to be working on the title.

You can dig into the footage for yourself below.

Oh well... Lucasfilm have forced YouTube to remove the video claiming copyright... so we can't see what we weren't going to get anyway...

*sad sigh*

I have watched this video on Kotaku.com and after watching i have gotten very good thoughts of what the game is about. But first I want to say that this game will probably go to Rebellion developments. It's rumored that this game will go out in 2009. But let's stick to the comment. The footage given shows Palpatine saying "stick to the plan kenobi." which i think that kenobi turns evil between episode 3 and 4. I think that he works with the emperor and to keep his identity hidden he is part of the empire. I think free radical all so made this into different campaigns. I also think that if Free radical kept this game they'd only have the ps3, ps2, psp, and xbox 360. I don't think the Wii version has been made yet. When you see 2 people fighting and you hear closly that someone says "You betrayed the empire." i understand that Kenobi fights a clone commander. Also i think that Kenobi fights rebels and a hidden legion of clones.(because of the cutscene movie in the beginning) BUT SINCE REBELLION DEVELOPMENTS IS TAKING THIS GAME (WHICH IS SAD BECAUSE FREE RADICAL MADE CALL OF DUTY 4) THE GAME'S SYNOPSIS IS GOING TO CHANGE. REBELLION IS GOING TO DO THERE BEST THOUGH AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CHECK ON THIS GAME. ONCE AGAIN I THINK THAT REBELLION IS ONLY GOING TO CHANGE THE TECH OF THE GAME.(the planets, features, and maybe the non main characters).

LucasArts just fired one its lead testers, Joshua Pfeiffer(of post-punk, vernian process), for blogging about this. He found out about his sudden disfavor when he rec'd an email showing his desk was re-assigned to another worker!

No actually I was terminated for something that had absolutely nothing to do with LucasArts or the Battlefront series, but rather a particular studio that I had posted critical comments about online.
