Occasionally, there are very creative individuals who make a variation of a core game with new mechanics that have a lot of potential. This is the case of Star Wars Deathtroopers, a game developed with a resemblance to Resident Evil 4 with the idea of making players survive a zombie outburst inside the Death Star.
This project is part of the itch.io platform, and players can donate any amount of money to play this survival horror experience. There are not many details about the game, but it looks amazing, almost like an Unreal Engine 5 title.
No More Star Wars Outlaws; It is Time for a Fan-Made Survival Horror
With the upcoming launch of the original Star Wars Outlaws, which will show a new character, fans of the franchise are very eager to see what Ubisoft is preparing. This title will have interplanetary travel, vehicles, action, stealth, and a ton of persecution. They plan to release this single-player, open-world title for PS5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC sometime in August. There is another fan-made game that caught their interest.
