LucasArts have unveiled an early look of their Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II E3 footage, with a trailer they’re calling “Betrayal.” Of course, considering the budding franchise is pretty much built on a foundation of mercurial treachery and the Sith’s inability to contain themselves from stabbing each other in the back, we’re finding it difficult to even feign shock that Vader would turn on his student and order his death. Then again, everything you’re about to see below is still infinitely better than anything you saw in the prequels – Natalie Portman’s mid-drift excluded.
The four minute and change cinematic positively drips lightsaber coolness; the apprentice seen once again flipping out and going on a “I’ve been bamboozled and now I’m going to take it out on pretty much the entire galaxy” warpath.
The first Force Unleashed suffered from some samey gameplay not to mention a tangible sense of repetition. Here’s hoping LucasArts have channelled the force and corrected some earlier issues in The Force Unleased II while keeping up the strong narrative found in its progenitor. That said, we’re still wondering what the hell Vader was thinking leaving two lightsabers in the prison cell. Dude, the guy can crush metal with his mind – he doesn’t need a helping hand. Unless you wanted him to escape. Ahh, Lord Vader, you are quite wily.

Amazing! I wnat it now! Im hoping there will be more game modes this time though as the first felt like once you finished it there was nothing left to do. An online mode similar to Battlefront 2 would be perfect.

yep looks awesome. And agree that Darth Vader surely didn’t think that a few storm troopers could take him down? Didn’t he play the first game?
