With flashbacks indicating that something isn’t right, you flee from the dark master in an attempt to find out the truth, and are quickly reunited with your friends.
Vader insists you are, explaining how his many prior attempts all ended in grisly failure, but you and many others aren’t so sure. The Force Unleashed II is, sadly, a by-the-numbers sequel which simply doesn’t excite as much as the original.ĭespite dying at the end of the last game, you are once again cast as Darth Vader’s secret apprentice, Starkiller, but with a twist: you might be a clone. While LucasArts has created a fun, and at times visually stunning game, the campaign is over in next to no time at all and there are very few memorable moments throughout.
It’s not that the first game was superb – it was merely an entertaining game set in the Star Wars universe – but that the sequel could, and probably should, have been able to better it. As far as sequels to multi-million selling titles go, Force Unleashed II is one of the most disappointing.
