Aspyr will be previewing a beta of Star Wars Battlefront tonight at 7 PM at the monthly Aspyr game night at Apple's Austin store. Aspyr reps will be on hand to give a short demonstration of the game.

Star Wars Battlefront is an open-ended single player and multiplayer action game, which allows players to re-live all of the epic battles from the classic and prequel Star Wars film trilogies. Soldier types include standard infantry, scouts, heavy weapons and pilots. Each soldier has specialized abilities and the freedom to use ground-based turrets found on the battlefront as well as more than 25 diverse ground and air vehicles including the AT-ST, X-wing and speeder bike, and the massive Republic Gunship that can hold up to five different soldiers. The team-based action within Star Wars Battlefront is set in more than a dozen unique locations across 10 diverse planets including Hoth, Geonosis and Endor.

Star Wars Battlefront is scheduled to ship for the Mac in June 2005.
