Excited for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2? Well, if you pre-order at Gamestop there’s even more to be excited about, because you get a really awesome custom skin and lightsaber crystal that turns your character into a really sweet, badass looking Jedi Knight. Check out the official excerpt:

Maulkiller Skin – In the cloning facilities of Kamino, Darth Vader created a warrior of unparalleled strength and power by combining the genetic material of Darth Maul, former apprentice of Sith Lord Darth Sidious, with his own apprentice, Starkiller. The resulting aberrant clone possessed traits from both warriors, but the crude fusion of two disparate Force users quickly produced physical and mental instabilities that led to the unfortunate clone’s destruction. For a brief time he struck fear into the hearts of all who faced him, even Lord Vader himself.
Maulkiller Silver Saber Crystal – The perfect companion to the Maulkiller costume, the silver crystals make his dual lightsabers look like an extension of the silver Zabrac styled tattoos that cover his body and face. This powerful crystal allows the player to consume less Force Energy when using Force Powers so that he can devastate his enemies.

Thanks to Deathstar for the tip!


“Star Wars fans have been forgiving over the years, but we don’t take that for granted. We are so paranoid about tarnishing Star Wars. We want to make every game as good as possible, but it doesn’t always work out that way. The Force Unleashed II is a better game. Whether it reviews or sells as well, I have no idea.” – Haden Blackman, LucasArts Exec

I really enjoyed the first TFU game, so if the second one is even as good as the first, I’m all over it!
