Sony's new Clone Wars title is geared specifically for the younger generation of Star Wars fans, and avid watchers of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series on Cartoon Network. Obviously with Sony's success with the Free Realms franchise, kids and micro-transactions go together like peanut butter and bananas.

Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures will be free-to-play, but will also utilize the Sony Online Store cash system for players to purchase items, outfits and accessories. A subscription service will also be available for players, but unfortunately details as to what will be available or a pricing option have not been announced yet.

Clone Wars is boasting numerous mini-games to draw players even more into the Clone Wars universe, like Droid Programming and Speeder Bike racing. Along with numerous mini games, there will also be an Online collectible Card game:

Clone Wars Adventures card battles lets players pit a variety of fun characters, creatures and vehicles from The Clone Wars television show against one another in a unique, fast-paced combat similar to the gameplay styles of traditional games such as War and Concentration.

Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures is due out this Fall, so players won't have to wait long to get their Star Wars fix. Check out some screen shots from the Official Site.
