LucasArts has announced that KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC II: THE SITH LORDS has shipped to retail stores nationwide. The sequel to the multiple award-winning KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC is only available at the present time for the Microsoft Xbox. A PC version is scheduled to ship to retail in February 2005.

Designed by Obsidian Entertainment, KOTOR II picks up the storyline a few years after the conclusion of the first adventure. Set 4,000 years before A NEW HOPE, the galaxy has erupted into a violent war between the Jedi Knights and the Sith Lords, with the latter group dominating the attack. You awaken on a starship with no memory of your former life or role in the growing war except that you were once a Jedi -- but were you a Knight, a Dark Jedi or a Sith Lord? The decisions that you make will affect the outcome that your character follows in the game, either down the Light Side of the Force or the Dark Side. As with the first game, you will also guide a group of companions that journey with you on your adventures throughout the galaxy, growing their experience level (and yours) by completing missions and surviving combat. New weapons, Force abilities and locations build upon your prior experience playing the original KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC.

KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC II: THE SITH LORDS has been rated Teen and retails for $49.99.
