The second installment of the Jedi Knight/Dark Forces series, Dark Forces II was released by LucasArts in 1997. The game was originally created as a 2-disk series and is compatible with Windows 95 and 98. More recently, it has been made available via Steam or by mounting a torrent file to a virtual CD drive. It is a 3D first-person shooter, although it can be played in third person as well. Like the other installments in the series, it is an action/adventure that features progressive force power development. Each level, with the exception of the battle levels, contains secret areas that can be discovered for extra power stars that are used to increase the rank of a given power. The game features a variety of resolutions, 3D acceleration, high-quality sounds, a phenomenal musical score, and live-action cutscenes and cinematics. It also features the ability to choose to become either a light Jedi or a dark Jedi.
