It is said that the former was successfully defeated by the Jedi, and that Darth Malak betrayed his mentor and is planning to take on the Republic by himself. His aggression is so successful that some Jedi have decided to join his ranks. A seemingly ordinary soldier of the Republic is traveling aboard a space ship that is attacked by Darth Malak's minions. Narrowly escaping, the soldier meets a female Jedi named Bastila, one of those who have fought Darth Revan in the decisive battle. With her help, the soldier must learn to become a Jedi, stop Darth Malak, and discover the truth about his or her own past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eKnights of the Old Republic\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a role-playing game that uses the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eStar Wars D20\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003erule system, which is similar to the 3rd Edition of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/search\/?q=d%26d\"\u003eDungeons \u0026amp; Dragons\u003c\/a\u003e.

Force powers include stun, force pull (which pulls opponents or objects toward the player-controlled character), the Jedi Mind Trick, which persuades people to see things the player's way, and many others. The player has various weapons at his or her disposal, from the lightsaber to blasters, grenades, ion rifles, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout the game, the player will visit many Star Wars locations that appeared in the movies, such as Kashyyyk, the homeworld of the Wookiees, the desert planet of Tatooine, and others. Interacting with characters in various ways and performing side quests influences the protagonist's stand with the forces of Light and Darkness. The player can turn the main character into a flawless Jedi, a ruthless Sith, or anything in between. Some of the player's choices influence major events that occur within the storyline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisclaimer: The product images shown are for illustration purposes only and may not be an exact representation of the product received.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Retro Raven Games","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":48408760156401,"sku":null,"price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Complete","offer_id":48408760189169,"sku":null,"price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cartridge in Reprinted Case","offer_id":48408760221937,"sku":null,"price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0321\/0680\/7341\/files\/starwarsknightsoldrepublic.jpg?v=1784041549","url":"https:\/\/retroravengames.com\/products\/star-wars-knights-of-the-old-republic-nintendo-switch","provider":"Retro Raven Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
