Summary
Have you ever wanted to be a secret Sith apprentice, hunting down the last remnants of the Jedi order for Darth Vader as you hone your skills with the Force?
That's the basic premise of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed from Lucas Arts, a game that will give you more control over the Force than any other game before it. Set between the movie trilogies and created in collaboration with both George Lucas and Industrial Light and Magic, the game will take you from one end of the Star Wars galaxy to the other in your quest. You will have access to four Force powers - push, grip, repulse and lightning - that will enable you to destroy anybody or anything that stands in your way.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed uses new and exciting technology to make your game more involving. Physical objects react as you would expect them to; dropping, breaking and blowing up in a natural way. In addition, humans and other creatures react to events around them in dynamic, non-scripted ways that mean that no two games will play exactly the same. Also, you will be able to change the path of the story by decisions you make during the game, creating multiple endings that promise to reveal surprising twists in the Star Wars continuity.
The secret apprentice will be accompanied in his adventure by a droid companion called PROXY and an Imperial pilot cadet called Juno Eclipse who pilots your starship, the Rogue Shadow, and with whom the apprentice will have a love interest during the course of the story. The game of The Force Unleashed is one part of a multimedia project that encompasses a novel, a graphic novel, a set of miniature figures, a reference book, a line of collectible toys and an expansion to the Star Wars role-playing game.
The Ultimate Sith Edition includes not only the full original game, but also three levels not seen in the original release. These are the two levels set on Coruscant and Tatooine previously only available via download and an all-new level set on Hoth. The exclusive level rounds off the 'Infinities' storyline set up in the Tatooine mission, with the Secret Apprentice heading out to finally crush the Rebellion. Players will even get to go up against Luke Skywalker against the backdrop of settings seen in The Empire Strikes Back!
