The rumor started yesterday when Tom Henderson shared information about the development of a single-player video game based on Star Wars. The insider stated that it is a work that fans of the galactic saga had been waiting a long time, and finally we can know more details.
According to sources consulted by Insider Gaming, Respawn Entertainment is currently immersed in the development of an FPS based on a Mandalorian bounty hunter. Although everything may lead one to think of Din Djarin, the truth is that the identity of the protagonist is unclearbut the setting will transport us to the time when the Empire dominated the galaxy with an iron fist.
The project, which is in the early stages of creation, will allow us to capture various bounties alive or dead to receive juicy cash loot. As pointed out by VentureBeat, the work is under the direction of the studio’s creative director, Mohammad Alavi, and The basic pillars for its development are “mobility” and “style”. The first concept will be nourished thanks to the classic jetpack that the members of this race carry on their backs, so we will be able to make great jumps and movements.
Sources have also indicated that the title will be “very fast” and will empower users who are inclined to play that way. Obviously, all the typical bounty hunter gadgets will be included, whether it’s the rocket on the wrist, the rope hook or the scope to lock onto enemies. Of course, it should be noted that everything indicates that the game will consist of linear levels and we will not see an open world.
We will visit numerous planets from the Star Wars universe and, although the release date is unknown, the information indicates that it is one or two years away, at least. Finally, the multiplayer component is not assured at the moment.
