    The Complete Saga 
  • Fighting Darth Maul with "Duel of the Fates" playing. Then playing AS Darth Maul. Freeplay allows you to play as Maul or Vader against the other!
  • The final battle of LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game in co-op mode. Very few games can say that the final boss battle has the players turn on each other. This happens again in The Skywalker Saga where Player 2 controls Darth Vader against Player 1's Luke Skywalker in the first half of the final level of Return of the Jedi before joining together to defeat the Emperor.
  • The big finale of the original Star Wars trilogy. You fight Palpatine, with all his crazy acrobatic skills displayed in Revenge of the Sith. Oh, and to make it fit with the co-op gameplay style? Vader achieves his redemption a little earlier and teams up with his son to fight the Emperor. That's right, two generations of Skywalkers dueling against the Big Bad of the whole Star Wars saga. They changed it, now it's awesome.
    The Force Awakens 
  • LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens has the previously mentioned Palpatine fight as part of the first level, with Luke and Vader once again teaming up to take the Emperor down. The fight manages to be even more awesome thanks to the updated graphics and dialogue from the movie, and Darth Vader gets locked in an epic Beam-O-War with Palpatine at the end.
  • Not only is FN-2199 (AKA TR-8R) a boss in LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but he makes his grand entrance by smashing through a wall and spinning his weapon wildly.
    • And this time, Finn can beat him alone if the player is good enough, by outsmarting him using the environment.
  • Captain Phasma has a serious case of Took a Level in Badass compared to her Memetic Loser status in the films.
    • In "The Trouble Over Taul" level, she leads FN-2199 through a Resistance ship that is crashing into a toxic atmosphere and falling apart around them without hesitation and doesn't leave until she finds what she went there for. Her entire attitude is summed up in two words:
      FN-2199: [after some resistance fighters are Thrown Out the Airlock] I guess they couldn't handle the pressure.
      Captain Phasma: Focus, Trooper!
    • The "Ottogen Assault" level also proves that both she and Kylo Ren have good reason to be considered The Dreaded by those who go up against them.
    • Unlike the film, where she's quickly ambushed and captured, Phasma instead puts up a serious boss battle against Finn, Han, and Chewbacca. Even after the initial firefights, she's able to grapple with Chewie before the Wookiee ultimately overpowers her.
  • Sidon Ithano, the Crimson Corsair and Ensemble Dark Horse from the film, getting his own level where he and two companions infiltrate a First Order base to steal a ship that's needed for Poe to use in a rescue mission to save Admiral Ackbar. At the end of the level, said ship slides off its platform towards the planet's plasma-filled surface. All three of the mercenaries dive after it and get it flying to safety before they crash below.
    The Skywalker Saga 
  • Several part of Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga help to create some more epic moments from moments in the movie. Some highlights include:
    • Anakin being the second Jedi in the Episode II fight with Dooku. Note that before, in any version of the first game or in the Complete Saga, Obi-Wan was aiding Yoda. Now, Anakin gets a chance to shine.
      • The ending cutscene also has a moment where Dooku keeps Yoda distracted by using the Force to make Obi-Wan's lightsaber attack him, forcing him to fight it while simultaneously protecting Anakin and Obi-Wan.
    • Episode III gives a cutscene of how Obi-Wan escapes his troops. When they fire on him during Order 66, instead of being blindsided like in canon, he's able to dodge their shots like an acrobatic pro, and fake falling to his Disney Death so he can escape.
      • Earlier, after the fight with Dooku, for a brief moment, Anakin is seen wielding both his lightsaber and Dooku's lightsaber. Sadly, it is only in a cutscene, but before Ahsoka and Ventress were released, him with two lightsabers would have been a cool feature as a Dual Wielding character.
      • Palpatine's fight with Yoda (and Captain Typho) has him summoning the Shock Troopers for assistance. His line to them before your last clash with the Senate?
        Darth Sidious: Troopers, COMPLETE ORDER 66!
    • The last fight against Kylo Ren for The Force Awakens story features a moment in Rey's fight with Kylo Ren that is both this and funny. In the movie, she uses the Skywalker saber to scar him. Here, she does it with her bare fists.
    • The Battle of Exegol shows everyone arriving to help the Resistance. However, instead of there being all ships, we see that even Ewoks on gliders are helping. It is even implied that they helped to destroy the Star Destroyers. This shows that the Ewoks are still a force to be reckoned with that any of the Emperor's armies should never underestimate.
      • However, the reinforcements are needed, as the Final Order is stronger too. In fact, a BB-9E controls a complex mechanism of turrets and is a boss Finn, Jannah and BB-8 must fight.
  • A glitch in The Skywalker Saga (now patched and no longer able to be performed) allows the character to fight Darth Vader out of the story of Return of the Jedi. This has allowed for anyone to be able to battle him, such as the Death Star duel, Ahsoka against her master, or even what ended up happening in Obi-Wan Kenobi.
    • Ahsoka and Ventress in general for The Skywalker Saga. They're literally the only character to be able to use Dual Wielding, and have extraordinary speed. They become a flurry of white/red lightsaber swings, and if you use either of them in the Kylo Ren fight for Rise of Skywalker, them catching his lightsaber will look like the only moment where both lightsabers are actually used for a clash.
