Who wrote Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series?

The story behind the answer

David S. Goyer wrote Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series. The project is a three-episode virtual-reality adventure that follows a Force-sensitive smuggler captured by Darth Vader.

Goyer wrote all three chapters, while special-effects artist Ben Snow directed them. The story takes place between Revenge of the Sith and Rogue One, allowing it to explore Mustafar during the early Imperial era without retelling a film’s central plot.

Players investigate the Bright Star, an ancient artifact linked to Lady Corvax and a catastrophe that devastated Mustafar. The episodes combine cinematic storytelling with lightsaber combat and Force abilities. Each chapter also includes a dojo where players can practice against waves of enemies.

A common mix-up is to credit the performers or other Star Wars game creators. Sam Witwer is associated with Star Wars voice acting, while Amy Hennig and Haden Blackman are prominent writers and designers elsewhere in the franchise, but neither is credited as the writer of Vader Immortal. The three episodes debuted in 2019, with PlayStation VR following in 2020.
