As the details for ''[[The Force Unleashed]]'' differ for each form of media it is presented in, this guide mostly uses the novel and the [[PS 3]] versions. However, some characters exclusive to other consoles are considered canon, and will be described. A lot of this information is [[All There in the Manual]] or according to [[Word of God]].
