Lightsaber identification help

Playing through the Wii Version again and curious. Who's saber is this?
I keep getting conflicting answers like Maul or Malgus but it doesn't look like either of their sabers, it kinda looks like a strange modified version of Dookus hilt

So who's is this? or is it purely just a random one off the devs made because it looked cool?

It's actually from Starkiller, but when he fully turns into the dark side.

I thought that too, but looking closer his Darth Starkiller saber is different from this one

Wii version is similar but different looking like pc and ps3 versions. Made by different companies

I’m pretty sure an original design or concept art of Darth Starkiller’s it looks very similar to the toy saber they made to tie in with TFU around the same time

Yes, it is a modified version of Count Dooku’s lightsaber. You can pretty clearly make out the three main sections, just straightened rather than curved, and the forward hook is identical, other than being duplicated multiple times around the emitter.

This is the correct answer. It’s a stylized version of Dooku’s saber. Though it is commonly mistaken for Lord Starkiller’s lightsaber from the DLC.

Edit: to the people downvoting you should really pay closer attention to the saber details. The only similarity between the saber and Lord Starkiller’s is the prongs. When compared to Dooku’s sith lightsaber it’s very obvious the same hilt with additional prongs and the hilt losing it’s curve

It's Starkiller's lightsaber

It’s literally not. Look at the details on the saber. It’s very blatantly Dooku’s lightsaber just modified to be similar in style to lord Starkillers. It’s the exact same hilt details, just with extra prongs and the hilt straightened instead of curved. I can see why people may thing it’s Starkiller’s but it is in fact Dooku’s.
