Player vs Enemies

You run, jump, climb and swing through the various areas of the planets you visit similar to the Tomb Raider or Uncharted games. Your companion droid, BD-1, allows you to hack into the circuitry, unlock doors, activate bridges, and even restore your health through the health packs he carries.

You navigate various worlds, encountering enemies and taking on a range of missions. Combat is tough, requiring quick reactions as you use your lightsaber and force powers to defeat enemies using a variety of moves. As the story progresses, you improve your fighting abilities and work through a detailed skill tree.

The result is an exuberant Star Wars action-adventure that takes you to different planets in the well-loved franchise.

Good to know

Insights to ensure your child's gaming experience remains safe and enjoyable

Consider time investment

Adventure games often take a long time to finish. Encourage regular breaks to get moving, rest their eyes and balance their time with other activities.

Nurture key skills

Many adventure games incorporate problem solving and critical thinking, important skills for school, work and more offline. Talk to them about their game to see how it supports them and their goals.

Build resilience

Encourage children to take risks with their characters in-game to safely learn potential consequences. Talk about what might happen outside of the game and why it's important to keep those risks in-game only. While playing, encourage them to think about innovative risks their character can take.

Skill level

Suggested by Family Gaming Database

Combat is difficult and requires quick reactions as you parry, dodge and attack with your lightsaber.

Content rating

Rated PEGI 16 for Violence. Violence consists of frequent lightsabre battles between your player and members of the Empire forces. While there are no blood or visible wounds shown, responses to the violence are realistic but not gross, even when a fantasy character has a hand cut off. When defeated, enemies fall to the ground and remain there for a short while, enough to pile up in busy areas.
