New Premium Edition Includes New Hoth Bonus Level, Special Edition Art Book and Limited Edition Collectible Art Cards

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Nov. 3, 2009 - LucasArts today announced that Star Wars The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition is now available for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and for the first time ever, PCs. The Ultimate Sith Edition shows gamers the deepest, darkest side of the Force in a story that puts them on a collision course with Luke Skywalker himself.

Star Wars The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition includes all of the original missions found in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed as well as content previously only available via download and an all-new bonus level set on the planet Hoth. It comes packaged in a premium case along with a special edition art book and collectible art cards that showcase the memorable characters in the game.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed completely re-imagines the scope and scale of the Force and casts players as Darth Vader’s “Secret Apprentice,” unveiling new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy seen through the eyes of a mysterious new character. Originally released in September 2008, the game quickly became the fastest-selling Star Wars game ever, and has since sold nearly seven million units worldwide.

Star Wars The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition combines the original Star Wars: The Force Unleashed videogame and three new levels to create the definitive ultimate-evil exploration of the period between the two Star Wars movie trilogies. The additional content includes two levels set on Coruscant and Tatooine previously only available via direct download, and an all-new bonus level available only in the Ultimate Sith Edition package.

The exclusive level concludes the “Infinities” storyline set up in the Tatooine mission, as the Secret Apprentice is sent to the planet Hoth to crush the Rebellion once and for all. While on Hoth, players face Luke Skywalker himself while visiting iconic locations seen in Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.
