LucasArts is a company owned by LucasFilm which specialises in video game development and publishing. It started publishing games in the late 1980s, becoming tone of the world's leading adventure game publishers along with Sierra. This trend continued until the 1998 release of Grim Fandango, the first adventure game the company failed to make a profit on (despite positive reviews).

However, because it is linked to LucasFilm, this gives the company access to big franchises such as Star Wars and Indiana Jones, which has kept it afloat despite the downfall of the adventure genre.

The company was previously known as Lucasfilm Games LLC and LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC.
