JAKKS Pacific and Lucasfilm team up to bring fans exciting new original games based on Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith with unique games and game controllers featuring Darth Vader, Yoda and other characters from the film. They will be available at retailers nationwide this April.

Plug it in & Play TV Games products are plug and play gaming systems that contain multiple games in one single controller. All that is needed are batteries and a TV. No videogame consoles or gaming cartridges are required. Simply plug the TV games unit into the A/V jacks of any standard television set, turn on and play.

The lightweight, compact, all-inclusive controller, houses a combination of videogames with all of the hardware built right into the controller. This technology allows gaming fans to enjoy a number of videogames with just one single purchase. The first wave of JAKKS Star Wars TV Games units is designed to look like everyone's favorite villain, Darth Vader. This initial shipment will be followed by three additional collector controllers based on other new and classic Star Wars characters including R2-D2, Yoda and General Grievous.

Each Star Wars TV Games controller contains five original games based on Revenge of the Sith including "Coruscant Attack," "Grievous Onslaught," "Droid Invasion," "Gunship Battle" and "Utapau Chase." Play as Obi-Wan Kenobi piloting a Jedi starfighter in intense space combat, feel the Force as Anakin Skywalker fights enemy droids in lightsaber battles, take command of a Republic gunship in the Clone Wars and much more.

Here's a rundown of the five games:

• Droid Invasion: Obi-Wan Kenobi must use his lightsaber to deflect the Separatist droid army's laser beams and save the Republic.
• Coruscant Attack: Separatist insurgents have dared to launch a brutal sneak attack on the Republic capital of Coruscant. Lead Obi-Wan Kenobi into battle against surging waves of enemy fighters. Destroy gigantic battleships in Obi-Wan's sleek Jedi starfighter.
• Grievous Onslaught: Anakin Skywalker has landed on General Grievous' flagship. He must fight his way through hordes of merciless battle droids to storm the bridge and rescue Chancellor Palpatine.
• Gunship Battle: The daring forces of the Republic battle Separatist insurgents in every sector of the galaxy. Pilot a gunship to decimate the enemy on the ground so clone troopers can break-out and advance. Turn the tide of the war, one shattered planet at a time.
• Utapau Chase: General Grievous has been tracked to his hiding place on planet Utapau. Obi-Wan Kenobi must pursue the General's fleeing wheel bike to end the Separatist threat once and for all.
