Berlin (dpa/tmn) - In the fascinating world of “Star Wars”, a new chapter for fans of the universe begins. The popular video game "Star Wars: Bounty Hunter" from 2002 celebrates a comeback in the form of a remaster. After the release of "Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster" and the "Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection" in spring, fans can now slip into the role of the iconic mandalorian Jango Fett and immerse yourself in exciting adventures.

The original game revolves around the story, which leads to Episode II of the famous science fiction epic. In his mission, of which Sith Lord Darth Tyranus, better known as Count Doku, is hired, Jango Fett has the task of catching a dark Jedi. The associated challenges and the gameplay, which is characterized by exciting third-person shootings, captivate the players back into their spell.

"Star Wars: Bounty Hunter" offers an exciting combination of action -packed gameplay and a breathtaking game environment. Equipped with a jetpack, Jango navigates through the various locations of Star Wars galaxy, be it in explosive fights on the urban planet Coruscant or when meeting Jabba The Hutt on Tatooine. The game offers a wealth of missions that lead the players to the most exciting places in the saga.

A new scanner enables potential bounty goals to be recorded and offers the game buyers a digital profile with the most important information about the criminals they are looking for. When hunting, the player can often decide whether to catch them "dead or alive", although the lively capture is often associated with higher rewards. Of a total of 150 bounty destinations contained in the game, it is an exciting challenge for the players to bring them to the distance.

The gameplay of the remaster differs only slightly from the original version, but shooting on opponents is facilitated by a new automatic target aid. In situations with several opponents, however, the aim can prove to be tricky, which presents the player with an additional challenge. Jango's selection of weapons is strategically important; While the flame thrower is of great benefit in tight fights, the precision rifle proves to be effective against far away enemies.

Graphically, the remaster has experienced some improvements, even if the differences in the cinematic cutscenes are only slightly noticeable. The textures have been partially revised, but the true upgrading can be found in the overall layout of the game, which has a clear and appealing effect through modern resolutions. It is as if you could finally discover the details that were previously blurred in the fog.

The level design may seem easy for today's players, but it also brings a nostalgic charm with it that is reminiscent of past Gamer days. Another great feature is the Easter Egg: By playing through Jango Fetts, adventures can be carried out in the next run the outfit of his well -known son Boba Fett. This not only delights the fans of the characters, but also shows how deeply the preference for the saga is rooted.
