Player vs Enemies

You play Cal Kestis years after his run-in with Darth Vader at Fortress Inquisitorius at the end of the last game. When your ship is damaged in a daring escape, you turn to your old captain, Greez, to repair it, and find yourself caught up in a plot orchestrated by a rogue Jedi, Dagan Gera, from 200 years in the past. To survive, you must bring your crew back together and resist the same forces of darkness that corrupted Gera.

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 stims he carries. Combat is tough, requiring quick reactions as you use your lightsaber, force powers and blaster to defeat enemies using a variety of moves. You can choose from five different ways to use your lightsaber, including a slower but more powerful crossguard stance as well as the lightsaber and blaster combination. Dodging and parrying incoming attacks is also essential, similar to the combat in Demon's Souls, although not as hard.

Meditation points allow you to restore your health and save the game but respawn all enemies, so strategic use of them is essential. They also provide access to the game's skill tree, where you can unlock new force powers and lightsaber moves.

It's a sequel that expands on the original's combat and exploration systems through the introduction of the blaster and new lightsaber stances with more expansive worlds to explore. This results in a game that's a fun challenge that pushes you to explore and use your abilities, both in and out of combat, in ambitious and creative ways.

Good to know

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

Internet Matters Recommends

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 age

Suggested by Family Gaming Database

12+

Combat is difficult and requires quick reactions as you parry, dodge and attack with your lightsaber. Younger players can make use of the difficulty settings to make progressing easier.

Content rating

PEGI 12
Bad Language
Violence

Rated PEGI 12 for Bad Language and Violence. This game features moderate violence, including close combat involving the use of lightsabres. While reactions are realistic, there is no b*!%$y or gory detail. When characters are cut with lightsabres, the heat from the weapon cauterises any wounds. Cinematic scenes feature moderate violence, including people being punched and implied impalement, but again without any graphic detail. There is use of bad language, including 'b@*!%$d', 'b*!%$y' and 'a@s'.
