The always well-informed journalist Tom Henderson published an interesting rumor on his Insider Gaming site today: according to his sources, Respawn Entertainment (Apex Legends, Titanfall) is working on an FPS of The Mandalorian.

According to Henderson's sources, the game will see us control a Mandalorian bounty hunter (he may therefore not be the Din Djarin of the TV series, nor Boba Fett) set in the period when the Galactic Empire is dominating the galaxy. His task, as a bounty hunter, will be to catch - dead or alive - the criminals on whom a bounty hangs.

It looks like the game will be based mainly on fast-paced and stylish action: the Mandalorian's jetpack will give him great mobility, allowing us to perform quick dashes, vertical jumps, powerful slides (similar to those in Apex Legends) and more. The game is described by the journalist's sources as "very fast-paced", rewarding players who play using this style; For example, health will primarily regenerate based on consecutive kills. Of course, there will be a wide choice of weapons and gadgets, such as the wrist rockets and the grappling hook already seen in the TV series, as well as a visor to mark enemies and offer information on the environment.

Apparently it won't be an open world game: the game will be set on several of the Star Wars universe, in missions with a mostly linear structure. And according to Henderson's sources, we're still a year or two away from seeing it, so it's not an upcoming game.

We'll let you know if any more rumors emerge about the game, so stay tuned!
