Description
Following his successes for the Rebel Alliance in
the previous game, the adventures of the starfighter pilot "Rookie One" continue. While out scouting in the Dreighton Nebula, Rookie One's patrols receive a distress call from a freighter. As this is an area where ships are known to disappear, any deviation from the flight path is dangerous. But what they find is an Imperial presence where there shouldn't be one... and a new secret project to bring about the destruction of the Rebel Alliance.
Rebel Assault II is a rail-shooter "interactive movie" featuring a variety of action sequences. Rookie One will fly sequences in an X-Wing, the Millennium Falcon, speeder bikes and being on foot. His only real ability is the precise targeting and shooting of laser weapon and occasionally the chance to take cover and avoid obstacles. Rookie One will team up with other characters who will aid him and need to be defended in turn. Occasionally different paths can be chosen in the animation and different events triggered, but for the most part the game is a closed environment.

Trivia
From Lucasarts' official site:
To direct the video, the Rebel II team recruited veteran filmmaker Hal Barwood. Now a Project Leader at the LucasArts, Hal was responsible for Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Big Sky Trooper, and Indiana Jones and his Desktop Adventures. Before building in cyberspace, however, Hal worked in Hollywood for more than 20 years. He co-wrote Steven Spielberg's first feature film Sugarland Express, and produced and co-wrote the films Corvette Summer and Dragonslayer. His unique combined knowledge of both the film computer mediums made him the ideal choice for the job.
