The official tie-in novel to the acclaimed Xbox/PC game.

As the Clone Wars rage, victory or defeat lies in the hands of elite squads who take on the toughest assignments in the galaxy. On a mission to sabotage a chemical weapon research facility on a Separatist-held planet, four clone troopers operate under the very noses of their enemies. The commandos are outnumbered and outgunned, deep behind enemy lines with no backupβ€”working with strangers instead of trusted teammates.

Matters don't improve when Darman, the squad's demolitions expert, gets separated from the others during planetfall. Even Darman's apparent good luck in meeting an inexperienced Padawan vanishes once Etain admits to her woeful inexperience.

For the separated clone commandos and stranded Jedi, a long, dangerous journey lies ahead. They must traverse hostile territory brimming with Trandoshan slavers, Separatists, and suspicious natives. A single misstep could mean discovery... and death. It's a virtual suicide mission for anyoneβ€”anyone except the Republic Commandos.

Star Wars Republic Commando: Hard Contact promises an intense and thrilling adventure that fans of the series will not want to miss.
