This is seriously the best game for any Star Wars fan who wanted to see Han Solo wielding a lightsaber, because that's basically who the protagonist is.
During the course of your adventure, you'll come across familiar characters from the original Star Wars trilogy, like Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian. Geek out as you improve your force powers and become a legendary Jedi.
