STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter, High On Life and more going cheap in this Fanatical Bundle
4 November 2024 at 11:39 pm UTC

Just FYI, STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter runs fine on my Steam Deck, but I haven't been able to get it to run on my desktop. Other reports on ProtonDB say it runs fine, or mostly works but crashes on opening the settings menu, so caveat emptor.

As a resident of Hilo, Hawaii I'm not sure why they named a game mode that (the Hawaiian meaning of "to twist, braid" doesn't seem particularly relevant), but okay!
