Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Rogue One: A Star Wars Story expanded upon the opening crawl of the original Star Wars movie by retconning how the Death Star plans were stolen. While A New Hope outlined the premise for how the Rebels acquired the plans, the original Star Wars Expanded Universe of books, comics, and video games offered a more detailed account, adding specific characters and locations.

The text states that the Death Star plans were stolen during the Rebellion's first victory against the Empire, and Darth Vader says they were beamed to Princess Leia's ship, the Tantive IV. Since Star Wars was conceived as an homage to the Flash Gordon serials, with the first movie being Part 4, it’s possible that "Episode III" was intended to be about that first Rebel victory.

Star Wars: X-Wing The Rebels' first victory Close The Star Wars franchise expanded rapidly in the nineties through books, comics, and video games like Star Wars: X-Wing, the iconic PC flight sim, and one of the great early games from the franchise.

Being on a different planet, it did clash with the Toprawa account from previous Star Wars stories. However, Star Wars: Dark Forces - Soldier for the Empire by William C. Dietz, was the first in a book trilogy that bridged the game and its sequel. It expanded the events and made the Danuta plans a smaller but essential part needed to understand the main Death Star plans.

Star Wars: Empire at War The wider context Close Star Wars: Empire at War also had its plot structured around the Death Star's construction. However, the story plays out differently from the established continuity and is more difficult to consolidate than Battlefront II. The Rebel side fleshed out the discovery of the space station, with a questionable appearance from Han Solo, and the Empire's quest focused on hunting down the Moff who helped leak the key information .

Starkiller/Galen Marek As seen in The Force Unleashed games, Galen Marek was the son of two Jedi Knights who inherited all their power. He was claimed by Darth Vader as a secret apprentice and assassin, but Vader ultimately betrayed him in accordance with the Rule of Two. In Legends, Starkiller became an important leader in the Rebel Alliance.
