The galaxy is on the brink of civil war. Inspired by the sacrifice of DARTH VADER’s secret apprentice, a ragtag Rebel Alliance plots to overthrow the evil GALACTIC EMPIRE. Imperial forces in relentless pursuit of the Rebels have captured the Jedi Knight RAHM KOTA. Its general lost, the Alliance fleet has vanished.
While the Empire searches for the Rebels, Darth Vader has put a dark plan in motion that will bring an end to his apprentice’s legacy....
Prologue
The ocean world of Kamino isn’t known for its picturesque weather. As the TIE Advanced fighter makes its descent, it’s greeted by a sheet of rain so thick the secret cloning facilities below nearly disappear. However, this is no typical TIE Advanced fighter; it belongs to someone very special.
As the TIE Advanced fighter touches down on the landing pad the stormtroopers that guard the secret cloning facility scurry into place.
Imperial stormtroopers line the halls of the facility as Darth Vader coolly trundles past them toward a distant corner of the labs that only he and a few others have access to.
When he reaches his destination—a holding pit—a familiar face stares up at him from the depths. It’s Starkiller’s face, but not quite the same person. The clone of the once-secret apprentice is shackled and weak. Despite his connection to the Force, Starkiller’s clone is unable to free himself from Vader.
The Sith Master has a mission for his new minion. Starkiller’s old Jedi mentor, General Rahm Kota, has been captured. He’s being held captive on Cato Neimoidia. The clone’s mission, once his training is complete, is to travel to Cato Neimoidia and execute Kota.
As the Starkiller clone shakes the memories from his head, Vader tries to convince him that they’re not truly his memories to own. A side effect of the cloning process and a remnant of the training process, the memories should soon fade.
Vader hands the Starkiller clone a pair of lightsabers, prompting him to cut loose of the memories and truly shake free of his progenitor’s “weakness”—that is, his feelings for Juno Eclipse. Just then, several Combat Training Droids approach and engage their holo-training systems.
Combat Training
Begin to develop your skills by letting your dual sabers loose on the Combat Training Droids within the holding cell. Concentrate on the Rebel fighters and strike them down with lightsaber attacks.
When the next batch of Rebels appears, turn to your Force powers. Follow the onscreen commands to fry them with Force Lightning. The Rebels, or rather the combat training droids, are weak, so a blast of Force Lightning or two will defeat them instantly.
Dispatch the Rebel scum with Force Lightning until a new squad arrives. This time, practice blocking to deflect blaster fire back at your holographic foes. Finish tearing through the Rebel soldiers by stringing together saber attacks to build up your Combo meter.
Once you’ve built up the combo meter, follow the onscreen commands to execute a Lightsaber Special. These special attacks can strike down multiple enemies with over the top finishing moves.
As you chain together more combinations of attacks on enemies your Combo Meter will increase. Each rank in your Combo Meter will execute a different finishing move. A higher Combo Meter gives an XP multiplier and allows you to pull off more powerful Lightsaber Specials.
When you finish, the room is littered with the bodies of the demolished training droids. Darth Vader rejoins you and brings one last person for you to strike down. Just as your lightsabers are about to tear through her skin, she screams in terror and you stop. It’s Juno!
Vader insists that you strike her down and do away with Starkiller’s feelings that echo inside of you. When you resist, Darth Vader takes matters into his own hand.
Disturbed, Vader then decides that you, like the clones that came before you, are of no use to him. Angered at Vader’s apathy towards Juno and knowing that you’ll likely be killed as yet another failed experiment, you lash out with Force Lightning.
Before he has a chance to retaliate, you jump out the window and take your first step toward freedom.
