First Look!!
Set one year before the events of Episode IV A New Hope, the story picks up with Starkiller, Darth Vader's secret apprentice, abandoned by his former master. Escaping from his captors, Starkiller voyages out into the galaxy to discover the truth about his identity.
The story is still top secret, but we do know that you'll be visiting Yoda on Dagobah for some Jedi advice. You'll also encounter that beastly bounty hunter, Boba Fett. Darth Vader has sent him to track down Juno Eclipse, the lovely pilot that Starkiller fell in love with in the first game. Whit-woo! Kissy kissy! And so on!
Star Wars fans with money to spare should seek out this super swanky Collector's Edition. It comes with your very own lightsaber crystal, a collectable book, three exclusive challenge levels in the game, a special character skin designed by legendary Star Wars artist Roger McQuarrie and a free MIMOBOT 2Gb USB drive that comes loaded with artwork and the original script from the game. Phew!
The Force Unleashed was one of the best Star Wars games ever, setting you loose with Force powers that were ramped up to crazy levels. In the sequel, you'll get to do even wilder Jedi stunts, as well as meeting up with some classic characters along the way. Check it out!
Behind the scenes
New to this game is the ability to use dual lightsabers in battle. You'll also be able to befuddle enemies with the Jedi Mind Trick, and send your Force powers off the scale by ramping up Force Fury. Expect to be grabbing, throwing, crushing and slicing like never before! We've even heard you'll get to pilot your own TIE Fighter...
