One of the best titles based on the George Lucas galaxy has been Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. The 2008 work made by LucasArts for PS3 and Xbox 360 allowed us to control Starkiller, Darth Vader’s secret apprentice during the darkest time of the Empire.
A character who has always had great affection from the community, which led to a much weaker sequel. Now, thanks to the Andor series on Disney Plus, we have been able to see that the company has not forgotten the protagonist.
During the fourth episode of the series, Luthen Rael appears talking to the Senator Mon Mothma, important member of the Rebellion. A conversation that has attracted attention not so much for what they say, but for the armor that appears in the background of the image.
I don’t think it’s considered Spoiler for Andor because it’s a frame of something in the background but…
IS IT THE STARKILLER ARMOR?!! pic.twitter.com/vhpP8oh3Xr

For those who don’t recognize it, this is the helmet that Starkiller wears when he fully converts to the dark side of the Force. However, we are talking about an alternate ending for the game that became so popular that it received several DLCs that explored this sinister path.
In any case, the truth is that Starkiller is far from a canon character taking into account the actuality of the franchise. Its creation occurred in the stage prior to the purchase of Lucasfilm by Disney, so it is now framed within Legends. It is the term that collects all the stories and adaptations of the Expanded Universe.
