The main character is Jango Fett, a would-be Mandalorian and bounty hunter. Hired by the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus, better known as Count Dooku, he is supposed to capture a dark Jedi.

Now, following the release of the Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster and the Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection earlier this year, fans can also experience an updated version of this 22-year-old bounty hunter adventure.

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter consists mainly of third-person shoot-outs in which you move through various locations in the Star Wars galaxy with a jetpack.

From battles on the planet Coruscant to an audience with Jabba the Hut on the desert world Tatooine, all kinds of story missions await Jango Fett. All the while, the Mandalorian with the iconic silver-blue helmet pursues his favourite activity: bounty hunting.

A scanner is used to identify potential bounty targets. Once they have been recorded, a digital wanted poster provides the most important information about them. Most targets can be taken dead or alive, although there is usually a higher reward for crooks caught alive.
