Players will be tasked with capturing bounties, dead or alive, for monetary rewards.

The gameplay is reportedly fast-paced, with emphasis on the Mandalorian’s mobility, enabled by a jetpack allowing for horizontal dashing, vertical jumping, and boost sliding similar to Apex Legends.

Players will have access to various weapons and gadgets such as a wrist rocket, grapple hook, and a visor for tagging enemies.

Moreover, the game will feature linear levels across different planets in the Star Wars universe rather than being open-world.

Though the release date remains uncertain, it’s speculated to be at least a year or two away. Additionally, whether the game will include multiplayer remains unclear.
