Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Switch Release Date
Arguably one of the better games in the franchise, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is coming to the Nintendo Switch, and we don’t have too long to wait for it.
Originally launched on the SNES – ok, not that long ago, the game follows Starkiller, Darth Vader’s secret death bitch who hunts down and destroys the Jedi with ferocity, set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. If you’ve heard of them.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for the Nintendo Switch features the same features as before, along with the multiplayer Duel Mode and support for the Joy-Con motion control, so you can run around the house as a Sith.
You can thank Aspyr for their handy work – they also recently released the rather excellent Knights of the Old Republic.
Features include:
- Play as Starkiller and destroy all who stand in your way on your quest to serve Lord Vader.
- Unleash epic Force powers and lightsaber combos with optional Nintendo Switch Joy-Con™ motion controls.
- Battle your friends in local multiplayer Duel Mode to determine the galaxy’s most powerful Jedi, with 27 characters to choose from!
- Travel the Star Wars galaxy and defeat powerful Jedi Masters across a variety of iconic locations, including Cloud City, the Wookiee homeworld Kashyyyk, the floral planet Felucia, and the junk world of Raxus Prime.
Here’s the announcement trailer:
When is Star Wars: The Force Unleashed coming to the Switch? April 20th. Mark it in your diary or use the force nearer the time. It’ll be priced at $19.99 on the Nintendo eShop.
