A
surprise,
to
be
sure,
but
a
welcome
one!
The
2002
action-adventure
game
Star
Wars:
Bounty
Hunter,
starring
Jango
Fett,
is
getting
remastered
by
Aspyr.

Set
to
launch
on
August
1st
for
PS4,
PS5,
Xbox
One,
Xbox
Series
S/X,
PC
and
Switch,
this
new
version
will
feature
visual
enhancements,
improved
environmental
textures,
dynamic
lighting
effects
and
even
a
flashlight
to
help
get
around
some
of
the
darker
areas.
All
for
$19.99.

“Become
the
most
feared
Bounty
Hunter
in
the
galaxy!”
says
he
official
press
release.
“As
Jango
Fett,
you’ll
have
to
jump,
jetpack,
climb,
and
maneuver
in
this
iconic
action-adventure
game
featuring
a
variety
of
visual
improvements
on
modern
platforms,
as
well
as
Steam
Deck
support
and
a
number
of
DualSense
controller
features
for
PlayStation
5
players.”

For
this
new
release,
Aspyr
are
also
promising
to
restore
a
missing
easter
egg.
In
the
original
game
players
could
find
a
special
message
written
in
Aurebesh
which
said
“Cash
in
all
bounties
to
play
as
Boba.”

/

Unfortunately
for
players
though,
the
ability
to
play
as
Boba
never
made
it
into
the
game.
But
now,
in
the
remaster,
once
you
beat
the
campaign
you’ll
unlock
a
special
Boba
Fett
skin.

It’s
worth
mentioning
that
PlayStation
owners
can
already
actually
play

Star
Wars:
Bounty
Hunter
via
emulation
for
$11.29

It’s
also
worth
keeping
in
mind
that
Aspyr’s
reputation
is
rather
it
and
miss.
It
was
Aspyr,
after
all,
that
gave
us
the

slightly
wonky
Star
Wars:
Battlefront
Classic
Collection
just
a
few
months
ago.
To
their
credit
they’ve
largely
fixed
the
issues
effecting
it,
though.
