A group of modders have launched a Star Wars themed takeover for Call of Duty 4, giving gamers the chance to play Modern Warfare as an Imperial Stormtrooper or Rebel Alliance soldier.

Galactic Warfare stitches elements from Star Wars, including locations, characters and weapons, with Modern Warfare's multiplayer gameplay. Have a look at the video below to see it in action.

The non-commercial fan project took two years to build and comes with seven playable maps. Even killstreaks are rewarded with airstrike attacks using the Y-Wing and Tie-Bomber spacecraft.
