Aug 5, 2024Star Wars Bounty Hunter Remaster brings to modern platforms many of the aspects that turned the games of this old franchise into cultural phenomena in the full sense of the word.
-
Jul 31, 2024STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter is still a fun game if you can handle its difficulty in the latter half. Putting yourself in the Mandalorian armour of Jango Fett has never felt so good before, and now fans new and old can experience this classic.
-
Jul 31, 2024Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is an excellent revival of the GameCube/PS2 classic. It retains all the charm that made fans fall in love with it back in 2002, with several quality-of-life improvements to make it enjoyable for modern audiences. There are cracks where outdated designs/mechanics shine through, but Star Wars: Bounty Hunter remains a fantastic story from a galaxy far, far away.
-
Aug 2, 2024Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is basically the same as it was 22 years ago. It's a game with an interesting story and content that manages to entertain, but it becomes stereotypical over time. The result is a quality port of a slightly above average game.

Oct 8, 2024The updated Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a good game for a few evenings for fans. The recommendation could have sounded a lot more confident if Aspyr had completely dealt with the annoying bugs and old issues.

Jul 31, 2024While updated graphics and a new control scheme are all well and good, Aspyr should have done more to bring Star Wars: Bounty Hunter into the present day. The lives system should have stayed in the early 2000s where it belongs, as all it serves to do is make the game’s already murderous level of difficulty even more aggravating by dragging out the experience and arbitrarily making players replay huge chunks of the game whenever the game serves up enough cheap deaths. The bounty hunting system also could have done with improvements to make it easier and more enjoyable to interact with. While there is some fun to be found with flying through the sky and gunning down your enemies, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is overall too frustrating an experience to be an easy recommend for anyone but the most diehard of Star Wars fans.

Sep 30, 2024Should people play Star Wars: Bounty Hunter? Definitely. It’s an acquired taste, but I still enjoy its high points. But should anyone play it via this remastered edition? Goodness, no. Considering how long fans have waited for this title to get a next-gen boost, there’s no excuse to release it in this state.
