This is already available thru psn bc. I remember reviewing this back when. Totally mid at the time but had some fun jetpack mechanics.

Surprised to see it get recognition over the years. I don’t remember it doing particularly well.

It's just getting a PS5 upgrade, since all the older PS2 releases are getting those. It's not emulated though, a full port which is surpring, but a cool thing for premium users.

I had this for the Gamecube. In a time where there were practically no Star Wars platforms for the console, it was a breath of fresh air.
Even if the game itself was nothing to write home about. It's a very linear shooter-platformer with a forgettable story (so forgettable I completely forgot about it).

A lot of Star Wars games from that era that tried quite a few things. Republic Commando, Clone Wars, and of course KOTOR.

Probably the best era for Star Wars in video games. Before the dark times… before the empire.
