LEGO Star Wars: Unlocking Darth Vader

Darth Vader is a super-hard character to unlock, especially because there's no secret code that will let you do it! You also need to complete some crazy challenges to get him, including playing through a super-secret level. Here's how to do it.

  • 1. First you need to get the "True Jedi" status on every single one of the 17 levels in the game.
  • 2. Completing step 1 unlocks the "?" door next to "Episode III".
  • 3. Go through the door and play the "Episode IV" level.
  • 4. When you finish the level, Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) will be unlocked!
  • 5. You'll also unlock Stormtroopers, Rebel Troopers and Princess Leia - score!

LEGO Star Wars - Becoming a True Jedi

To get True Jedi status in each level you need to collect LEGO studs to fill up your Jedi Meter. You can collect studs by finding secret areas, smashing stuff, solving puzzles and more. You lose studs when you die - 1,000 if you fall down a pit, 2,000 if an enemy blasts you apart. And, in each level you need a different number of studs, here's how many you need for each level.
