[Uncrowned Guard]

Respawn Entertainment, the acclaimed studio behind titles such as Star Wars Jedi and Apex Legends, is reportedly developing a first-person video game centered on the Mandalorian universe. This news comes from Insider Gaming, which claims the game is in the initial phases of development and focuses on the adventures of a Mandalorian bounty hunter navigating the tumultuous era of the Empire's supremacy.

Exploring the Galaxy as a Mandalorian

The game is set to immerse players in the role of a Mandalorian, engaging in bounty hunting to earn cash, an activity synonymous with the lore of Mandalorians. The gameplay is expected to feature the Mandalorian's iconic jetpack, contributing to a gameplay experience characterized by "high mobility." Similar to the mechanics seen in Respawn's Apex Legends, players can anticipate boost sliding as part of their movement arsenal.

Combat and Gadgets

Promising a "fast-paced" combat system, the game is designed to reward players with health regeneration for consecutive enemy defeats. A variety of gadgets will reportedly be at the player's disposal, including a wrist rocket, grapple hook, and a visor for marking enemies and tracking bounties. Despite the expansive Star Wars universe, the game will not adopt an open-world format. Instead, it will feature linear levels spread across various planets, focusing on a more structured narrative experience. The game is currently said to exclude any multiplayer components.

A Busy Schedule for Respawn

With a projected release still a year or two away, Respawn Entertainment has a full slate, juggling the ongoing support for Apex Legends, the development of the third installment in the Star Wars Jedi series, an untitled Star Wars first-person shooter, and a strategy game set in the Star Wars universe. As anticipation builds, fans eagerly await official confirmation and further details from EA and Respawn Entertainment regarding this exciting addition to the Star Wars video game lineup.
