10 Lost Gaming Characters HIDDEN In Video Games

6. Kyle Katarn - Star Wars Battlefront

Witcher 3
EA

I thought I'd changed jobs a few times in short periods of time, but apparently I've got nothing on Kyle Katarn.

Once a member of the Galactic Empire until releasing that *gasp* they were the baddies, Kyle pulled a Han Solo and went mercenary. As these things go, he then joined the Rebel Alliance and after a fashion, lo and behold, was actually very good at being a Jedi too. Oh, and like most Jedi, occasionally walks that fine line between Light and Dark side just for good measure.

If I'm being glib, it's because there is a lot of history to this man, in and around the events of the main films and some of the Expanded Universe. It's worth checking out, honestly.

At least someone must have thought so on the DICE team, as a tribute pops up in the form of his K-16 Bryar Pistol in Star Wars Battlefront (2015) expansion, the Death Star.

It doesn't give any more to the character that his pistol as a useable weapon, but does mean he's around? Perhaps on a mission, or he's returned to the Empire?

No one's telling...

Note: Above character model is a mod, but the pistol is from the game.
