The game begins on Peragus, a down-at-heels mining colony. Where you're character is trying to scrape together the funds to repair the Ebon Hawk, the same transport vessel your alter ego flew in the first game. What your character is doing with the Hawk is one of several mysteries that the developers are currently keeping under wraps. The game will also take the player to six other planets. Most of them will be new, but during our demonstration, we were given a glimpse of two of the ones that are (sort of) making return appearances in the game.
The first was Dantooine, the home of the Jedi Academy. Since Darth Malak bombed the bejeeburs out of the place, though, don't expect Dantooine to be the same idyllic world you remember. The second planet we saw was bombed out Telos, the home planet of Carth that was nearly destroyed in the Mandalorian Wars. Telos is still a mess, but the place is looking a bit better since someone began a massive reconstruction on the place. While we watched the main character run around on Telos, we could see enormous energy walls that separate the barely habitable portions from the bombed out ruins.
