We recently learned that EA-owned Respawn Entertainment has canceled plans for the highly anticipated project. Star Wars A video game featuring an unnamed Mandalorian.
The game is set to be a first-person shooter and will begin development in 2022, causing quite a bit of excitement among fans. We then learned that the bounty hunter in The Mandalorian wasn't Din Djarin, but he would still use a jetpack and even perform brutal takedowns similar to those seen in the movies. doom franchise.
Gameplay is described as a linear, non-open world adventure, but players could select bounties from a central hub, where they could also upgrade their weapons and armor.

People inside EA are probably being told: “If you don't have a lightsaber, I'm not too sure about that. That's all.” In other words, they don't believe these things Star Wars Games can be successful without allowing gamers to play as Jedi characters. star wars jedi' Cal Kestis, the main character.
This is a puzzling decision, and we expect such decisions to be limited. Star Wars Games from EA will continue to be available.On the plus side, Ubisoft remains committed to star wars outlawsan action-adventure game that, as far as we know, doesn't include Jedi or Sith.
“As we have seen, [EA’s Star Wars studio] It's clear from Respawn's portfolio over the past few months that the games players are most excited about are Jedi and the rich library of Respawn-owned brands. ” EA Entertainment and Technology President Laura Miele said in a memo to staff when the game was scrapped.
“Recognizing this, we have decided to pivot from our initial development of a Star Wars FPS action game and focus on new projects based on our brand while providing support for our existing games.”
“It's always difficult to walk away from a project.” she added, “And this decision is not a reflection of the team's talent, tenacity or passion for the game.”
