In 1984 it was published for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum.  It was one of the earliest Star Wars-related video games, following Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back in 1982 and alongside  Atari's 1983 Star Wars arcade game. It was the first video game based on Return of the Jedi.

Gameplay

In the game, the player controls the Millennium Falcon with the aim of destroying the second Death Star. The game is split into two stages. In the first, the player must shoot enemy TIE fighters while waiting for an opportunity to pass through an energy shield.

In the second stage, the player must shoot at parts of the Death Star until there is a clear path to the reactor. Once the reactor has been destroyed, the player must survive the resultant explosion.

Once these objectives are completed, the game begins again in a new round with greater difficulty.

Packaging
The cover art depicts the Millennium Falcon in flight away from the partially constructed Death Star, pursued by four TIE interceptors. It was produced by John Berkey, the noted science fiction artist who designed some of the earliest poster art for the original 1977 film, Star Wars.
