Star Wars® The Force Unleashed ™ II

System: Wii Release date: 29/10/2010

The Force is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together. Now you can harness this power and set free its might on Wii in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II.

Step back into the saga of Starkiller, Darth Vader's secret apprentice, and continue the story that earned awards from the Writer's Guild of America and the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. Set during the uncharted period between Star Wars: Episode 3 – Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode 4 - A New Hope, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II finds Starkiller on the run, a fugitive from his dark master. Plagued with fractured memories and tormented by visions of his friend Juno Eclipse, Starkiller embarks on a new quest: he must find Juno and piece together his shattered memory to discover his true identity. Meanwhile; his tenacious former master, Lord Vader, hunts endlessly for him in the hopes of crafting an unparalleled Sith warrior.

This thrilling story promises to be even more exciting and action packed than its predecessor. LucasArts and Red Fly Studio have augmented core elements from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed to create a bigger, better, more ostentatiously cinematic action sequel whilst refining key gameplay dynamics to give greater control and satisfaction. This episode introduces controls that are as quick and easy to pick up as the path to the Dark Side and an improved targeting system which allows far greater precision, specificity and ease of interaction with the environment.

Although Starkiller may not be a Jedi, he does utilise a Jedi's weapon: the lightsaber. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. Though perhaps those on the receiving end of his savage ballet of shattered stormtroopers and disintegrated droids might disagree. The Force is strong with him and grows stronger still: in this chapter he enters battle wielding dual lightsabers, discharging ruinous new combos and commanding an enhanced arsenal of powers.

Stop enemies in their tracks with a stream of Force lightning, use Force powers to target objects and hurl them at foes, influence the weak minded into attacking their comrades with Mind Trick or wreak unabridged carnage with Force Fury, which increases attack damage and powers exponentially. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II brings a slew of new costumes and customisation options to the table, including the ability to add power enhancing crystals to Starkiller's lightsabers. Such tools will provide a useful edge if you mean to guide him through the all-new challenge levels, annihilate hordes of formidable new enemies and vanquish boss characters in epic setpiece showdowns.

The Force may be strong with you, but what of your friends? Up to four players can clash lightsabers in spectacular fighting-game style matches so you can separate the apprentices from the masters. One all powerful Force may not control your destiny, but it will shape your path through Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II on Wii.

  • Wield dual lightsabers and tap into a greater range of Force powers in this new chapter of an award winning tale. Fight a variety of new enemies and take advantage of expanded customisation options.
  • On your own you can play through the cinematic story mode or take on challenge levels, alternatively you can battle up to three friends in multiplayer.
  • Experience the awesome power of the Force with refined control and targeting systems.
  • Making use of robust Havok Physics in concert with advanced Digital Molecular Matter and Euphoria systems, the characters will inhabit a beautifully created world full of objects and people that behave authentically.
