New reports are emerging about the Star Wars FPS in development at Titanfall and Apex Legends studio Respawn, and if even a single word of these rumors is true it sounds like an absolute dream game for me.
A new report fromInsider Gamingsuggests that Respawn’s FPS will see you take the role of a Mandalorian bounty hunter during the time of the Galactic Empire. The game is said to have a heavy focus on mobility with a jetpack that will let you “perform horizontal dashing, vertical jumping, boost sliding (somewhat similar to sliding down hills in Apex Legends), and more.”
The report emphasizes the fast pace of the game, noting a system where your health regenerates based on successively killing enemies. The report further suggests that the game will have linear levels - not an open world - set on various Star Wars planets, and is expected to be “still a year or two away” from release.
Some of those details have been corroborated byGiant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, who notes that “while it does have Mandalorians in it. It’s not ‘The Mandalorian: The Show: The Game.'” I’ve reached out to EA for comment and will update if I learn more.

If you’re coming at this as a Respawn fan, of course, you might be disappointed to hear about a game that sounds so much like Titanfall 3 not marking a return for the beloved mech-focused shooter series. Thestudio’s apparent teases for a series comeback seemed to culminate in little more than a new Apex Legends character, andreports on the cancelation of a full Titanfall game earlier last yearwere a bitter pill to swallow.
