Star Wars: Battle for Naboo is a video game from the fictional Star Wars universe. In this game, the player plays levels which tie into the movie Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. The player plays a Naboo leader, Lt. Gavin Sykes in the fight against the Trade Federation. Similar to the popular Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, Battle for Naboo puts people on the front lines in tanks and other assorted land vehicles. This is the first Star Wars game to do so. There also was an extensive array of ships to use.
