Tatooine and other iconic worlds serve as the backdrop for this platformer where players switch between characters like Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Princess Leia. Navigating side-view environments requires using different abilities to fight the Empire, while first-person shooter segments allow for direct combat against enemy forces.
