LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints

When will I get the Dark Force characters?

  • 1 of 4: If you know the movies, then you know that characters like Vader and the Emperor survive all the way to Episode VI -- which probably means you'd want to start there
  • 2 of 4: You don't have to play the episodes in order, so if you're really anxious to start collecting those canisters, you may want to skip ahead to Episode VI as soon as you can.  Then, keep going all the way through to Chapter 5: Jedi Destiny.
  • 3 of 4: Another option is to customize your characters using the tanks over to the right of the bar.
  • 4 of 4: Create a new character with a red lightsaber, and he/she/it will be able to use the Dark Force even if you can't afford a real character unlocked in the levels.  Just make sure to pick that customized character when you start Free Play mode.
