10 Most Disappointing Video Game Sequels Of All Time
6. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II
Adaptations of beloved franchises like Star Wars need to be treated with tremendous care.
Fans are as invested as it’s possible to be, and they want authenticity in their Star Wars games. The most iconic characters, vehicles and locales, combat that feels just the same way, and epic space battles and cosmic drama worthy of the name.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II had a great chance to deliver all of this. The new take on Starkiller could have been a visceral treat to control, as could the anti-hero’s lightsaber.
Sadly, the game was a big critical disappointment, failing to refine the solid foundation the original set down. The true tragedy of The Force Unleashed II was that it wasn’t deemed worthy of a true sequel on the arrival of Disney, leaving fans only to wonder what could have been.
