Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars Hitting March 22

Though it was originally supposed to come out last fall, the latest LEGO venture from LucasArts and Traveller's Tales has a solid release date that isn't far, far away.

LucasArts has confirmed that LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars will be released on March 22. With the well of Star Wars movies running dry, the game features key events and characters from the Clone Wars animated series -- with some Attack of the Clones stuff thrown in for good measure.

While you're waiting for March to roll around, you can read our hands-on preview to get a better idea of what you're in for. It is a LEGO game, though, so you probably already know exactly what to expect.
