Walkthrough

At the beginning of the level, you'll see a cutscene of a close look at the Death Star II. When the scene ends, you will appear in Endor Space with three Star Destroyers ahead and the Death Star II in the distance. Destroy six turrets on the nearby Star Destroyer and then go to the Star Destroyer on the left. Then, go to the Star Destroyer to the right and destroy six more turrets. While it is not necessary to destroy the Star Destroyers' turrets, it is recommended to do so if you are trying to reach True Jedi, as these turrets will give you a lot of studs. Head to the Death Star II, where the Millennium Falcon will begin its climb to the top. At the top of the space station, destroy two turbolasers and go to the back entrance to reach the next area.

In the next area, follow the path around it while destroying TIE-Fighters. Sometimes there will be two paths to choose from (some hidden by doors that you must destroy), but depending on which one you choose, they will take you to the main path. The first junction will split into a path ahead and a path to the right blocked by a gate. If you choose the path ahead, you will find a blue barrier. Shoot one of its blue generators on either side to temporarily disable the barrier. You can destroy the door on the right and follow a different path that you can use to avoid the blue barrier. Follow the main path and, at the end of it, you will find another blue barrier. Shoot one of its generators to temporarily disable it and quickly run past it to reach the next area.

In the next area, you will find the core of the Death Star II, which will be blocked by two blue layers. If you shoot a segment of the layer, it will turn red. Make all the segments of the first layer turn red while destroying TIE-Fighters to disable the first layer. Then do the same with the second layer and the core will be vulnerable. Shoot it many times to destroy it and the Death Star II will begin to fall apart. Head to the north door to reach the final area of ​​the level.

In the final area of ​​the level, you will have to flee from the Death Star II as it explodes. Follow the path along as you defeat TIE-Fighters and avoid flames. When reaching a junction, it is best to take the path ahead, as the path on the right has two blue barriers, while the one ahead has one. Shoot the blue barrier to temporarily disable it and follow the path. Follow the path while destroying TIE-Fighters and avoiding flames until you reach another blue barrier. Shoot it to temporarily disable it and avoid more flames until you reach another junction. Choose the path ahead, as it has more flames (which are easy to avoid) and no blue barriers. At the end of the path, shoot a last blue barrier to temporarily disable it and go through it to play a cutscene and finish the level.
