The game features numerous gameplay changes, including a more streamlined user interface, a <a href="/crafting/3015-934/" data-ref-id="3015-934">crafting system</a>, and enhanced character building (most notably allowing players to build or lose influence with their companions, affecting their <a href="/moral-decisions/3015-93/" data-ref-id="3015-93">alignment</a> and unlocking new abilities and dialogue).</p><p>The game is known for its rushed development cycle, leaving some of the game in an "unfinished" state with various unused content in the game files. This led to some <a href="/mods/3015-417/" data-ref-id="3015-417">unofficial add-ons</a> in the PC version to restore this content, the most prominent being <a href="http://deadlystream.com/forum/forum/4-tslrcm/" rel="nofollow ">The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod</a>.</p><p>It was later digitally re-released for the PC via <a href="/steam/3015-718/" data-ref-id="3015-718">Steam</a> (on August 23, 2012) and via <a href="/gogcom/3015-2379/" data-ref-id="3015-2379">GOG.com</a> (on January 2015).

Players can choose up to two squadmates at a time and can switch members at certain areas when out of combat. Unlike the previous installment, some characters are mutually exclusive based on the Exile's gender and alignment. The fates of certain characters can change over the course of the story.</p><p>At certain points of the game, players will have to progress with a group that does not include the Exile. For example, the optional <a href="/tutorial/3015-1085/" data-ref-id="3015-1085">tutorial mission</a> has players in the role of <a href="/t3-m4/3005-1863/" data-ref-id="3005-1863">T3-M4</a> (who temporarily recruits fellow utility droid 3C-FD).</p><p>Unlike the previous game, all companions have at least one exclusive feat or ability that gives them specific advantages over other companions (for example, droid <a href="/g0-t0/3005-13967/" data-ref-id="3005-13967">G0-T0</a> can float over mines without tripping them). As the game progresses, the Exile can gain and lose "influence" with each character, affecting their alignment (for both dialogue and Force Powers) while giving them new bonuses (and, for <a href="/the-force/3015-172/" data-ref-id="3015-172">Force</a>-sensitive characters, <a href="/multiclass/3015-2645/" data-ref-id="3015-2645">multi-classing</a>).</p><table data-max-width="true"><tbody><tr><td><h3>Kreia</h3><p>A mysterious and manipulative Jedi, <a href="/kreia/3005-1367/" data-ref-id="3005-1367">Kreia</a> is the Exile's mentor and a "Grey Jedi" (one who does not follow the Jedi Code but has not fallen into the dark side).

He also has a native boost to his Defense bonus.</p><p><strong>Class:</strong> Combat Droid<br /><strong>Weapons:</strong> Blaster Pistols, Blaster Rifles<br /><strong>Armor:</strong> Droid Plating<br /><strong>Starting Level:</strong> 6<br /><strong>Starting Attributes:</strong> STR 16, DEX 16, CON 10, INT 14, WIS 12, CHA 10<br /><strong>Starting Abilities:</strong> Power Blast<br /><strong>Starting Feats:</strong> Weapon Focus (Blaster Rifle), Toughness</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><h2>Story</h2><figure data-align="right" data-img-src="https://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-293435" data-size="small" data-ratio="1.465306122449" data-width="980" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 980px"><a class="fluid-height" style="padding-bottom:146.5%" href="https://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-293435"><img alt="Kreia, a major character in The Sith Lords" src="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/scale_small/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg" srcset="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/original/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg 980w, https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/scale_medium/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg 480w, https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/scale_small/0/2271/293435-kreia_art.jpg 436w" sizes="(max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px" data-width="436"></a><figcaption>Kreia, a major character in The Sith Lords</figcaption></figure><p>5 years after the story of the original KOTOR, the story of KOTOR II follows the adventures of the <a href="/jedi-exile/3005-995/" data-ref-id="3005-995">Jedi Exile</a> (canonically a female, and will henceforth be referred to as such), a Jedi who was punished for her part in the <a href="/the-mandalorian-wars/3015-2773/" data-ref-id="3015-2773">Mandalorian Wars</a> with excommunication from the Jedi Order. After escaping from a ruthless assassin droid on the mining station of Peragus with her companions <a href="/kreia/3005-1367/" data-ref-id="3005-1367">Kreia</a>, <a href="/atton-rand/3005-3472/" data-ref-id="3005-3472">Atton Rand</a> and <a href="/t3-m4/3005-1863/" data-ref-id="3005-1863">T3-M4</a>, the Exile sets about finding a way to stop the hidden Sith menace and recovering her connection to <a href="/the-force/3015-172/" data-ref-id="3015-172">the force</a>--which was seemingly cut off by the Jedi Council after her excommunication.</p><p>Mentored by the uncompromisingly pragmatic Kreia, the Exile gathers more and more companions (including a Sith Lord's former apprentice and the leader of the tattered remains of the Mandalorians) and travels to a wide variety of planets in her search for the last remaining Jedi Masters. As she travels about the galaxy, the Exile gains insights into the nature of the force, the flaws inherent in its black-and-white morality, and the dark pasts of her companions. Depending on her interactions, the Exile may begin a romance with either Atton Rand or the <a href="/the-disciple/3005-3930/" data-ref-id="3005-3930">Disciple</a> (if male, then the Exile can romance the <a href="/brianna/3005-2587/" data-ref-id="3005-2587">Handmaiden</a> or <a href="/visas-marr/3005-3910/" data-ref-id="3005-3910">Visas Marr</a>).</p><p>After gathering the remaining Jedi Masters at the ruined Jedi Enclave on Dantooine, it is revealed that it was not the Council that cut off the Exile from the force at all. In fact, she severed her connection as a defence mechanism following the destruction of <a href="/malachor-v/3035-773/" data-ref-id="3035-773">Malachor V</a>--the sheer scale of which should have killed most force sensitives outright. The Council also reveal that the Exile has not recovered her connection to the force at all, but is rather acting as a leech, draining the force from those around her. Given her status as a "wound in the force", the Council resolve to <i>actually</i> sever the Exile's connection to the force, and nearly succeed but for the intervention of Kreia. Kreia berates the Council for their ignorance, and severs their connection to the force, killing them instantly. It is here that Kreia is revealed to be the Sith Lord Darth Traya, Lord of Betrayal. Following her recovery from the ordeal, the Exile tracks down Darth Traya to the ruins of Malachor V, where they confront one another, student and master, for the final time.</p><p>On a dark-sided playthrough, the Jedi Council scene is decidedly less crowded--as the Exile has already killed most or all of the Jedi Council. If this is the case, Kreia instead berates the player for her brutality and foolishness, branding her a failure. The confrontation on Malachor V still occurs, but rather than it being the end result of the Exile's quest for insight and harmony, it is the end result of the Exile's lust for power.</p><h3>Cameos</h3><p>Two popular characters from the original game make cameos in KOTOR 2. <a href="../../carth-onasi/94-1790/" rel="nofollow ">Carth Onasi</a> will appear and inquire to the Exile if she knows of <a href="../../darth-revan/94-959/" rel="nofollow ">Revan's</a> current whereabouts. When it turns out the Exile does not know what happened to Revan, a short scene of a conversation between Carth and <a href="../../bastila-shan/94-846/" rel="nofollow ">Bastila Shan</a> plays, discussing why Revan left, and where he/she might be. If the player played the original KOTOR as a dark side character, Bastila will appear in a Sith Holocron on Korriban. Also on Korriban, there is a cave that the Exile must be an extremely high level to enter. Upon entering this cave, the Exile is shown Force apparitions of <a href="../../darth-revan/94-959/" rel="nofollow ">Revan</a> and <a href="../../darth-malak/94-1048/" rel="nofollow ">Malak</a>, in addition to another appearance by Bastilla. Revan wears his/her mask however, so the player does not see his/her face. In addition to these, <a href="../../hk-47/94-828/" rel="nofollow ">HK-47</a> and <a href="../../t3-m4/94-1863/" rel="nofollow ">T3-M4</a> both return as party members in this edition. Also returning is <a href="../../canderous-ordo/94-1852/" rel="nofollow ">Canderous Ordo</a>, but he goes only by the name Mandalore, and never removes his helmet. It is only towards the end of the game that the player discovers that Mandalore is in fact Canderous. No other party members from the original KOTOR appear in KOTOR II.</p><h2>Locations</h2><figure data-align="right" data-img-src="https://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-409186" data-size="small" data-ratio="0.896" data-width="250" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 250px"><a class="fluid-height" style="padding-bottom:89.6%" href="https://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-409186"><img alt="Malachor V." src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" sizes="(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px" data-width="250" class="js-lazy-load-image" data-src="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg" data-srcset="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg 250w"><noscript><img alt="Malachor V." src="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg" srcset="https://www.giantbomb.com/a/uploads/original/0/7473/409186-malchorv.jpg 250w" sizes="(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px" data-width="250"></noscript></a><figcaption>Malachor V.</figcaption></figure><p>KOTOR II Included a comparable amount of planets to the original KOTOR, all of them fully explorable:</p><ul><li><b>Peragus II -</b> A mining facility on an asteroid, the game begins in this mostly abandoned area, with the Exile having to gain access to the Hangar bay and escape.</li><li><a href="../../telos-iv/95-775/" rel="nofollow ">Telos IV</a> <b>-</b> A planet ravaged by <a href="../../sith/92-1407/" rel="nofollow ">Sith</a> orbital bombardment during the Jedi Civil War, it is now the subject of a massive restoration effort, with the surface being terraformed back to a habitable environment, and the massive Citadel Station orbiting overheard.</li><li><a href="../../dantooine/95-241/" rel="nofollow ">Dantooine</a> <b>-</b> A returning planet from the original KOTOR, Dantooine is in the middle of a rebuilding effort, after the <a href="../../sith/92-1407/" rel="nofollow ">Sith</a> attack on the Jedi enclave near the end of the original KOTOR.
