THQ Wireless is out with yet another Star Wars title, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, for Java-enabled handsets. Again, you’ll enter the magical world of George Lucas and fight anyone who crosses your way — all while on the go.

The storyline goes like this:

In the game, players assume the role of a clone trooper who is charged with leading his squad through 15 action-packed missions on three different planets to find those responsible for a vicious ambush and to discover the Separatist Army’s secret weapon. Traveling through unique terrain features such as climbable walls, bunkers, tunnels, and caverns, the player will battle four types of droids controlled by the Separatist Army. Throughout the mission, players interact with familiar favorites from the Star Wars movies like Obi-Wan Kenobi and General Grievous and new characters from the hit television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars, such as Ahsoka Tano, Clone Trooper Denal, and Clone Captain Rex.

The game should be out now and you could look for it at carrier decks or through mobile content store of choice.

As a reminder, so far THQ Wireless released a number of Star Wars mobile games — including Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, the Lightsaber Unleashed, Revenge of the Sith, LEGO Star Wars Mobile, and others.
