Luke Skywalker Goes Down Hard In Hilarious Clip From Star Wars Battlefront Beta
In the Star Wars Battlefront beta, few things are more intimidating on the battlefield than seeing Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader heading in your direction. Not only are they extremely fast and powerful, but they can take a ton of damage before going down thanks to their ability to deflect blaster fire with their lightsabers.
YouTuber Zephs experienced this for himself in a video he posted on his channel. In the video, he witnesses a player rampaging through the game's Walker Assault mode as the Jedi, so without a second thought, he wisely decides to bolt. Unfortunately, he's no match for the speed of Luke Skywalker and the gap is closed almost immediately. Jedi are known for their ability to seemingly anticipate things before they happen, but Luke clearly had no idea about his fate in this battle. Check out the video below, which features some perfectly edited-in music from Star Wars' iconic soundtrack.
