Unlocking Darth Maul in Lego Star Wars the Skywalker Saga

To Unlock Darth Maul, you’ll first have to defeat him in Chapter I of The Skywalker Saga. The fight is divided into two phases. In phase I, you’ll have to defeat Darth Maul once, and in Phase II, you’ll permanently defeat him.

Phase I

The player comes across Darth Maul in Episode I: The Phantom Menace. In the Third level of Episode I, namely ‘Better Call Maul’, players get to fight Darth Maul. Here, you’ll be using Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. In this Level, to defeat Darth Maul, the player will have to deplete his HP bar 3 times. Darth Maul will run away once you’ve depleted his health bar 3 times.

But before you can deplete his HP bar, you’ll have to be careful of his attacks. Whenever he is performing his next attack, a red indicator will appear on the ground at the place where he’ll strike. You can jump away from it to save yourself. Look out for his close-range stomp attack too.

It can deal massive damage to you. When Darth Maul is down, you can use the Lightsabers to strike him directly. If there’s a distance between you and Darth maul, you may use Force to throw objects at him. Defeating Darth Maul once won’t be enough to unlock him in LEGO Star Wars the Skywalker Saga. You’ll have to defeat him again in phase II.

Phase II

Before Phase II of Darth Maul’s fight, you’ll have to defeat some battle droids. Once these droids are defeated, the 2nd phase of the Darth Maul fight will begin. In this fight, you’ll have to ride elevators to reach the ‘high ground’ to fight Darth Maul. As you come after Darth Maul, he’ll destroy the bridges.

To pass through the destroyed bridges, your character will have to perform parkour stunts to get past them. This time, when Maul is defeated, he’ll run away again and close all of the gates behind him.

You’ll have to put the correct circuits in their respective places in a puzzle and open all of the doors. In this part, place the circuits of one color in their place, and you’re good to go. And you’ll get to the final fight against Darth Maul. You’ll get to finally defeat Darth Maul here.

Who is Darth Maul?

If you get to unlock Darth Maul, you might be wondering why Darth Maul is important to fans in LEGO Star Wars The Skywalker Saga? If you’re not familiar with Star Wars lore, here’s an introduction to Darth Maul.

Darth Maul was a Sith Lord. He was the apprentice of the Sith Lord of the time, Darth Sidious. Son of Mother Talzin, Maul was taken as an apprentice by Sidious at a young age. He later mastered the Sith skills and fought Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi and managed to kill Qui-Gon. Obi-Wan bisected Maul with his Lightsaber and believed Maul had died.

Maul came back a decade after his defeat in the clone wars and challenged Kenobi to take revenge. Obi-Wan Kenobi defeated Maul, but he ran away. He then started building his criminal empire. Darth Sidious finally took notice of it and considered it a threat to his plan. Maul was then captured by Darth Sidious but managed to escape with the help of his commandos.

Later on, Galactic Republic overthrew Maul, and he went into hiding for the time being. After the Great Jedi Purge, he managed to build his empire and challenged Kenobi to a duel. Obi-Wan Kenobi finally defeated his old nemesis. And with that, the Story of Maul comes to a full stop.

Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga lets players play with this interesting character once again. Filled with the rage of revenge against his master and the Jedi Master who almost killed him, Darth Maul comes back as an unlockable character in Lego Star Wars the Skywalker Saga.
