In an amazing turn of events, the latest Star Wars game to see the light of day from under LucasArts’ wing, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, has sold a whopping 5.7 million units across all platforms.

The Force Unleashed, released in September across (deep breath) PlayStation 3, Xbox 360; PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, Wii, DS, iPod Touch, iPhone, N-Gage, and other mobiles, has now gone on to become the fastest selling Star Wars title ever. George must be proud.

The game had already achieved this milestone in the month of its release, selling 1.5 million copies across all of the non-mobile platforms, so this new number is going to be incredibly difficult to best for LucasArts in the future.

Adding to the history books, The Force Unleashed got a solid nod from The Writer’s Guild of America, winning the Video Game Writing Award during the 2009 Writer’s Guild Awards.

As for the game itself, El33tonline thought it was a bit of a mixed bag, as you can see in our PSP, Xbox 360 and PS3 reviews of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
