Release Date: September 16, 2008
Third-person action game produced by LucasArts, set in the cult Star Wars universe. The Force Unleashed takes place between the third and fourth episode of the film series, when the Galactic Empire grows stronger before our eyes, and the Rebel Alliance opposes it. In the game we play as a student of Darth Vader himself, whose task is to expand the influence of the Dark Side of the Force.
The Star Wars saga continues this November in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, a videogame developed by LucasArts, which casts players as Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy. The expansive story, created under direction from George Lucas, is set during the largely unexplored era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In it, players will assist the iconic villain in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi - and face decisions that could change the course of their destiny.
# During the period between Episodes III and IV, players hunt Jedi in the role of Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice.
# Unleash and upgrade the Secret Apprentice's four core Force powers - Force push, grip, repulse and lightning - throughout the course of the game, and combine them for ultra-destructive, never-before-seen combos.
# Examples of unleashing the Force in ways never thought possible:
* The Secret Apprentice won't just Force push enemies into walls - he'll Force push enemies through walls.
* The Secret Apprentice won't just Force grip foes to throw them aside - he'll Force grip them in midair, zap them with lightning, then drop them to the ground to explode like a bomb.
# In addition to new adversaries created just for the game, such as fugitive Jedi and Force-sensitive Felucians, players will also confront and associate with familiar faces from the Star Wars films, including Darth Vader.
# Visit locations such as Episode III's Wookiee homeworld Kashyyyk and the floral Felucia, the junk planet Raxus Prime, plus an Imperial TIE fighter construction facility.
# Decisions made by players throughout the game will determine the path of the story, including multiple endings that will rock Star Wars continuity as they know it.

Game Ratings for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Video Game.
Hardcore Gamer: 3 / 5 by Kevin Dunsmore
Korme Studios' original take on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed on Wii was a noble effort back in 2008.
Game Rant: 2.5 / 5 by Joshua Duckworth
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed's Switch port tries to capitalize on nostalgia but ultimately fails to capture what made the original game so special.
Nindie Spotlight: 8 / 10 by Justin Nation
It has been pretty wild to return to many of the classic Star Wars titles on the Switch, and consistent with their original outings the results for each have varied in both general quality and in continued playability...
