Aspyr, in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, has released STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter today on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam for $19.99. This new title brings the original STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter (2002) to modern platforms with an updated camera system, modern control options, multiple visual enhancements, improved environmental textures, new dynamic lighting effects, and a new flashlight tool for navigating the galaxy’s darkest places.
In this classic third-person action-adventure game, players take on the role of Jango Fett, the prime clone of the Grand Army of the Republic, hired to capture a deranged Dark Jedi. The game reintroduces the legendary bounty hunter experience with visual and mechanical improvements, making it suitable for today's consoles and hardware.
The game provides players with the opportunity to experience Jango Fett’s iconic story set before the events of "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones™". Players face various foes and engage in acrobatic battles, offering an optimized experience for modern consoles and devices.
Players fight through the galaxy’s underworld equipped with dual blasters, a flamethrower, a whipcord, and pure Mandalorian rage. These diverse weapons offer an exciting combat experience, making players feel like true bounty hunters.
The in-game camera system has been completely reengineered to deliver a modern, intuitive, and reliable experience, giving players more freedom to shoot, evade, and use their jetpack than ever before.
The game offers two distinct control schemes: modern controls for a contemporary gaming experience, and legacy controls that mimic the classic feel of the original STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter. PC players can also experience the game with mouse and keyboard for the first time.
