Aspyr Media has announced a modern port for Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, the long-lost action-adventure game starring Jango Fett.

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is coming to Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PS4, and PS5 on August 1st.

Fans can expect the new remaster to include visual enhancements, improved environmental textures, new dynamic lighting effects, and a new flashlight tool for navigating dark places.

The classic third-person action-adventure game was originally released back in 2002 for the PS2 and GameCube, and is a prequel to the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones.

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a trailer:
