IMG has posted a first-look preview of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The first-look preview includes the very first two screenshots from the Mac version of the game.

Here's a clip from the first look:

Knights of the Old Republic takes place 4,000 years before C-3P0 became a comedian and Jar-Jar Binks was spawned, we’re talking good times. It is a time when Jedi Knights and Sith minions number in the thousands, neither side hiding from the other. The Galactic Republic recently survived a battle with brutal Sith Lord, Exar Kun, only to be betrayed by two fallen Jedi, Darth Revan and Darth Malak. The game begins with Darth Malak leading an enormous fleet of Sith starships against the extraordinarily outgunned Republic fleet. During this battle, a young female Jedi named, Bastila, vanishes, thus it is the player’s job to find her. With an entire fleet of Sith starships at their front door, why is one Jedi so important? Simply put, Bastila could possibly turn the tide of war, whether it be toward good or evil. Bastila is what’s known as a master of Battle Meditation; she can literally inspire the hearts of her allies, while breaking the spirits of her enemies, all with the power of her mind. Were she trained properly by a Sith master, young Bastila could be a lethal foe.
