AUSTIN, Texas — Aug. 1, 2024 — Bring in your bounty, dead or alive! Aspyr is thrilled to release STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games today on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam for SRP $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.
Become the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy! As Jango Fett, you’ll jump, jetpack, blast and strafe in this iconic action-adventure game featuring a variety of visual and gameplay improvements on modern platforms, as well as Steam Deck support, mouse and keyboard controls on PC, and several DualSense controller features for PlayStation 5 players.
And for the first time ever, upon completing the campaign, you’ll unlock a new Boba Fett skin for the next playthrough, paying off a notorious easter egg from the original game!
Key Features
Let the Hunt Begin: In this classic third-person action-adventure, you'll play as Jango Fett, Prime Clone of the Grand Army of the Republic, hired to capture a deranged Dark Jedi.
Relive the Timeless Tale: Experience the legendary bounty hunter fantasy set before the events of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones™. Face off against foes and maneuver through acrobatic battles in this adaption optimized for today's consoles and hardware.
Armed to the Teeth: Fight your way through the galaxy’s underbelly, equipped with Dual Blasters, your Flamethrower, Whipcord, and pure Mandalorian Rage.
Revamped Camera System: The in-game camera has been completely reengineered to deliver a modern, intuitive, and reliable experience, giving players more freedom to shoot, evade and jetpack than ever before.
