"The new game starts on Kamino, which is where Obi-Wan discovered the clone army in the second movie," Blackman explains. "So at the beginning of TFU2, you see Vader arriving at a secret cloning facility on Kamino, and he makes his way to a tower, where we reveal that Starkiller is in prison. From their exchange, you get the idea that Starkiller has been there for some time and that he's been training under Vader.

"You then see Starkiller training against a number of PROXY droids, which is a throwback to the first game-PROXY was a droid that could take on the form of pretty much any opponent using holograms. While they're training, PROXY goes through a number of forms and eventually turns into Juno Eclipse, who you might remember as the love interest from the first game. She was betrayed by Vader at the same time Starkiller was. Starkiller can't bring himself to strike Juno down, and he doesn't understand why. Vader then tells Starkiller that he's a clone and that the accelerated cloning process to re-create him so quickly has gone wrong, and that's why he's having trouble. Vader also reveals that there have been a number of clones before him, and all of the previous copies have gone mad.

"So Starkiller has this thing hanging over him right from the start that he might be going insane.

"With that knowledge, Starkiller realizes that Vader sees him as something of a failure," Blackman continues. "Then we cut to a flashback from the first game, where Starkiller sees himself being betrayed by Vader, and that convinces him to lash out and escape from the tower in Kamino. So then you fight your way out of the cloning facility and try to escape the planet, which he eventually does by stealing Darth Vader's TIE fighter."

As the story unfolds, Blackman and Torres click through some beautifully realized concept art on the theater's huge screen before continuing further. Vader informs Starkiller that the Empire's holding General Rahm Kota, the Jedi who served as his mentor in the first game, for execution on Cato Neimoidia, the home of the Neimoidians of the Trade Federation.
