Jedi Master Yoda
Once you complete the mission with enemy Star Destroyers, you must follow Luke Skywalker’s fate. You must use the galaxy map and travel to Dagobah to find Master Yoda.
After arriving at Dagobah Space, locate the blue circle that will enable you to land and proceed to the next objective.
After an emergency landing on the Dragonsnake Bog, you will be required to construct a camp.
There are two chests in the area that you must pull towards you, break, and then construct a fragment of the camp. After completing the work, proceed into the blue circle to meet Yoda.
You must now travel with Yoda on your back. The most challenging part is locating the two chests. You must use the Force to stack the crates on top of each other (as shown in the picture above).
Correctly positioning the crates will enable you to jump on them and begin climbing. You do not need to make any difficult jumps – press the right key/button, and the game will display icons next to objects that can be grabbed. There are no challenging sections here, making it challenging to make a mistake. However, if you fail, you may need to repeat a section of the climb.
The Cave of Evil – fight with Darth Vader
After watching the cut-scene, head towards the marked cave entrance. While exploring it, you will encounter Darth Vader. Theoretically, he is not real, but you still have to confront him.
Fortunately, the fight with Vader is not very complicated. To deal him damage, use lightsaber throw, and keep the opponent at a distance.
While attacking Vader, watch out for his stronger attacks, symbolized by red lines and circles. Jump away from places where Vader plans to attack.
In the end, your swords will clash – you have to mash (press quickly) the button visible on the screen. You only need to deplete Darth Vader’s single health bar, so the fight will end pretty soon.
A Safe Port
After the fight with Vader, you will return to the Millennium Falcon and resume traveling with Han Solo’s team. You will receive a task to land on Bespin – fly to the blue circle in space.
As soon as you follow Lando, the action will move to the surface and trigger a cut-scene that starts the Hibernation Station level.
Challenges in Hibernation Station
The Hibernation Station level has 3 challenges:
- You Want to Make That Move? – To distract the Stormtroopers, you need to build something. Head to the western part of the station and find the building bricks in the location marked in picture 1.
- After interacting with the bricks, three objects to construct will appear. Select the left one, the Dejarik Board, and the nearby Stormtroopers will head to it automatically (picture 2) and you will complete the challenge.
- Hello, What Have We Here? – To complete this challenge, you need to discover and loot the Imperial weapon cache while disguised as a rebel. Defeat the Stormtroopers to obtain pieces of armor and wear the Stormtrooper’s helmet, torso, and legs to get the disguise (example shown in picture 1).
- The cache is located in the north-eastern part of the station, as marked in picture 2. With the Stormtrooper disguise, you will be able to interact with the chest and complete the challenge immediately.
- Surprise! – To activate the secret defense system on the landing field, you need to complete this challenge. You can get it at the end of the mission when you reach the landing site. Jump on the back of one of the small rectangular droids (example in picture 1) and head to one of the nearby slots. Parking it in the slot will activate the turret and completing the challenge requires activating one of the turrets this way.
Hibernation Station Walkthrough
Your main objective in the Hibernation Station level is to reach the landing site in the northern part of the station. You will encounter Stormtroopers along the way, but you can avoid confrontations by choosing different paths. It is also possible to surprise some enemies from behind – check their field of view first.
You can reach the landing site in two ways. The first option is to use a disguise and head north. Choose one of the heroes and collect armor parts dropped by the enemies (helmet, torso, legs). Wearing a full disguise will allow you to interact with the red terminal shown in the picture and unlock the corridor leading to the landing site.
The second option is to go through the western part of the station with some freedom of action. You can explore optional rooms and corridors along the way and find bouncing bricks in one of the corridors. These bricks can be used to build various objects, including one related to the You Want to Make That Move? challenge.
As you approach the passage leading to the landing field, a cut-scene will trigger showing an officer with an access card. You need to obtain this card to unlock the passage. Head northeast to find it.
While searching for the officer, you will encounter an energy barrier. To get rid of it, grab the upper hook or switch to Lando and locate the weak point. Eliminate the Stormtroopers behind the barrier.
The officer you’re looking for will be at the end of one of the eastern corridors. Kill him and any reinforcements that may arrive.
Retrieve the access card dropped by the officer and take it to the northern door that leads to the landing site you passed earlier.
When you reach the Millennium Falcon, your task is to protect Chewbacca.
This is a good time to complete the Surprise! challenge mentioned earlier. Jump on one of the small machines, reach the appropriate slot, and use the stationary turret to attack the Stormtroopers appearing in the distance and weaken the bounty hunter’s ship.
You must defend yourself until you receive word that the ship is ready for take-off. Run to the Millennium Falcon to escape and finish the level.
