STAR WARS™: The Force Unleashed™ II

Let me start by saying this game has my favourite hack n slash gameplay of all time, if you want lightsaber and force combat and to feel like god, this is the game. the story pales in comparison with the first game, but it's still alright. HOWEVER, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ON PC. I've never had a worse, more corrupted, buggy experience trying to play a game. once I finally got through chapter one, I was faced with a complete lockout - the intro cutscene for chapter 2 completely crashes the game. every time. I tried for as long as I could, but had to refund the game having only played the first level. From what I read, everyone seems to have a technical problem with this game, but it's different for everyone.

I recommend you buy this game, on Xbox, not pc. have played it on my xbox one s and it is perfect on there.

i unleashed my force

As nostalgic as this game is, the story is SUPER short and weak while the gameplay gets stale very quickly. Not to mention the bugs are annoying as hell and the cinematics don't play sometimes which still hasn't been fixed

i need the god damn endor dlc to be released on pc thats what made this whole game worth playing in the first place.

Old but gold, graphics still holds well, gameplay is amazing even if short. One of the best series there were

Gas

No cutscenes played for what I assume to be the first 3 missions. I would just be teleported to a planet and have no idea why or what happened. After that I just uninstalled. This is absurd that I paid $20 for a game and the cutscenes don't even work.

its 2025. it has outdated graphics. not as big a story, No multiplayer, but it still today is one of the best, funnest games ive ever played, and will always be a part of me, as one of the first games ive ever played from getting the xbox 360. What a game

.

Negative review until achievements are added to the Steam version of the game. The Xbox 360/PS3 versions of the game have them but they still haven't been added to the Steam version.

With mods, this game is fun to play.

Compared to the first game this one has much better controls, smoother movements. Generally the combat feels easier on the same difficulty levels. Boss fights are incredible. Multi phased and long, but not boring.
The game is shorter than the first one if we don't count the challenges.
Too bad there are no achievements in Steam for either of them.

a beast breaks its leash;
stronger, sleeker, yet simpler than the original

this is peak

yes this game is fun very fun but its challenging and i like challenging

The first missions were really good but progressively the game got weirder, and there were some enemies I thought were sorta nonsensical

Absolutely incredible game ported so you can't play for more than 15 minutes without crashing even after turning off ALL cutscenes. Again, one of the best games. Just impossible to play this specific port.

9/10 would play again

the only thing matters about this game,is the expand universe. The comic book Force unleashed 2，from Boba Fett‘s point of view to see the story. And that comic had the best motivation of Boba，he just want his father be proud of him. And the game？Its garbage，nobody cares about it，it ruined a serious ，that might be a masterpiece.

Game Crashed at Peak moment, Unable to play further. but it's a best game with decent story & we see full potential of starkiller.

This game seems to be good from an actual game perspective. But holy shit, don't play this on PC. It's completely broken on Windows. If you're on Linux or the Steam Deck, the game seems to function a lot better. But still. Cut scenes either don't play or you have to disable them. Either way, the game crashes. This game needs either an update or a remaster. Get it on console if you can. I'm going to refund this and get it on PS3.

Also, as an extra they never put the DLC on PC.

Starkiller is a crazy simp that lets his rebellion comrades die to save a chick.

10/10

I really love the story, fighting, and the overall length of the game. This game is really fun and I recommend it if you are looking for a good adventure and fighting experience, and especially if you are a star wars fan. There is really nothing I dislike about this game, it is amazing.

original version is great but pc ver crashes CONSTANTLY pickups are a coin flip pressing my windows key at all crashes it if you have an xbox just go play it there

great starwars game , and very good on pc.. but i think it glitches the second to last level , it might be the storage space is over its limit , but still. it should be able to do it.. when theres still 800 mbs left free .. hopefully they or if its just the loow end pc.. thx.. its very fun.. the game needs to stop glitching on the cutscene .. thxyou.. (: ..

A really fun short game with some problems such as crashing (i have only crashed 2 times but i just thought you would have liked to know) and a low frame rate (it might just be my laptop but i have seen people complain
and i am very sure they have a way better gaming pc, but there re mods that gives you 60fps so thats great) but even with these problems i still had fun and this is still a better Star Wars game than Star Wars Outlaws

Fab!

One of the best star wars games ever made

tl;dr Game short good, no pay full price, some pc don't run good.

Pros:
- The game is fun and has no filler (unless you want to unlock everything).
- Force unleashed 1 & 2 don't hold anything back when it comes to the more aggressive (and cool) aspects of star wars and the force, they show the kind of thing I wish newer games would (it might be too much for some people, suspension of disbelief plz).
- Starkiller is such an endearing character and allows himself to feel his emotions without the whole "A jedi must free himself from anger, etc." narrative, I could actually empathise with him.
- Through the game you'll find some powers that are more enjoyable to your playstyle (they're all viable) and by the end game you'll have them maxxed out with little to no grinding.

Cons:
- The game is short, too short, easily could have been an expansion to its prequel.
- Because of its age, length, and the probability that your PC won't run it properly or not at all, you shouldn't buy it at full price, always wait for a discount (it only crashed once for me).

Overall Starkiller is such a good character and I wish his story continued, he's a jedi with sith training (opposite to Vader who's a sith with jedi training). Instead of shutting himself out he draws power from his emotions truly questioning what it means to be a jedi, a sith or something in between and away from both extremes, human.

it was a fun game, but i played it through in 8 hours

Nigga

An improvement to the first game, in my opinion, this one has better graphics, better controls and it's a lot less janky. I recommend it!

Great game, even after all these years, just a bit short sadly

i can hit people with 2 swords ??

badass

im still upset to this day that this sequel was rushed. it had some interesting concepts that built upon the first game, such as reworking the force abilities and using duel wielding lightsabers, but this game felt mishandled. i still enjoyed it and had fun, it was just shortlived. i wished they made a 3rd game, the concept for it intrigued me when i first heard about it

Barring gameplay this game is much inferior to the previous entry in the saga and it crashes. so. much. A big part of the fun in the prequel was the variety in environments, here u spend half the game in samey looking ships.

5/10

A little less clunky than the first one but even shorter. If you really want to play a Force Unleashed game, make it this.
Regardless, without the spice of nostalgia this isn't much of a game or a story as of 2024. There are better Star Wars games out there, new or old.

Also, even with a bit higher resolutions the quick-time-events' button indicators are tinier than a midi-chlorian and very easy to miss, which got old real fast.

Good game 9/10, would like a sequel but with Disney owning LucasArts, I think its better to just let this story end open ended...

A fun, short game you can probably clear in afternoon or two. Combat feels smoother than the first game (which already had good combat), and there are more options to use from force powers and different lightsaber crystals. There are also challenge modes you can do for a little extra content, and the story plays out well enough if you're interested in Starkiller's story. It's also just a pretty game!

The game being pretty short is also what hinders it, many can see this as underwhelming, I just see it as short and sweet (but definitely overpriced if you bought this at retail price back in the day). Another huge negative is that the DLC is missing from PC and modders currenly cannot port it either, so no Maulkiller skin or the extra Endor mission that continues the evil "what if" storyline from the first game's DLC.

ABSOLUTELY YES

YES!

pretty fun, a true classic, minus some bad boss fights (in my opinion)

Can't get past the first level because of crashes, what a joke

TFU 2 is a game with a well written story and with incredible voice acting. The combat has been improved from the first game with new abilities such as mind control and force rage. It does crash every now and again, but the auto-save means this is a minor issue. This is an excellent game, and I would recommend picking it up.

look at how they massacred the goat

i'm out words for this one it's such a good game.

Feels significantly better than the first. More diverse powers and abilities that are more smooth than the first. Story is a 6.5/10.

A button mashing QTE riddled mess. The interface is unstable - targeting the wrong things at the wrong times - and it's an artifact of a time best forgotten.
