Star Wars: Rebel Assault II - The Hidden Empire

You play Rookie One investigating missing Rebel ships near the Dreighton Nebula, a region with legends about vanished spacecraft. After responding to a distress call, you uncover an Imperial operation tied to the disappearances. Gameplay unfolds through on-rails flight sequences and ground missions with full-motion video cutscenes. You pilot various craft through asteroid fields and engage TIE fighters, while ground sections put you in first-person firefights. The sequel shifts from film recreation to original story territory, trading iconic battles for a mystery-driven campaign. Suits players wanting Star Wars action with less reverence for established lore.
