That’s the scuttlebutt floating around cyberspace, that Respawn are working on a Mandalorian first-person game which will see players control an as-yet-to-be-determined Mandalorian bounty hunter during the era of the Galactic Empire. Insider Gaming gave their thoughts on the potential of the game.
The game’s high mobility has been made possible storytelling-wise thanks to the Mandalorian’s jetpack, which allows the player to perform horizontal dashing, vertical jumping, boost sliding (somewhat similar to sliding down hills in Apex Legends), and more. Sources described the game as “very fast-paced” and as such will reward players who play in this style; for example, the player’s health will mainly regenerate based on successive kills.
As to be expected, playing as a Mandalorian bounty hunter gives the player a wide variety of weapons and gadgets including a wrist rocket, grapple hook, a visor for tagging enemies and bounties, and more.
It’s understood that the game will not be an open world and have linear levels taking place on a variety of different planets in the Star Wars universe.
Nothing is confirmed, and Insider Gaming claim that even if this does come to fruition, a game would be a couple of years away, but either way this is an enticing proposition. Let us know your thoughts on our social media feeds @FanthaTracks.
