While Respawn’s Star Wars Jedi series prioritizes stunning cinematic visuals and emotional storytelling, The Force Unleashed offered a more straightforward experience. As Galen Marek, codenamed Starkiller, players were tasked with assassinating the remaining Jedi Masters and ultimately confronting and eliminating the Emperor himself. The game’s intense and action-packed narrative set between the events of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Episode IV: A New Hope provided a full-on and immersive experience, a concept that has become more common in Star Wars games over the past 14 years.
