Star Wars: Bounty Hunter - Plot

Plot

This game occurs shortly after the events of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace with bounty hunter Jango Fett hunting a criminal named Meeko Ghintee for his friend Rozatta, the Toydarian owner of Outland Station. After bringing down Meeko's ship and capturing Ghintee during a battle in the docking bays, Jango receives a transmission from Darth Tyranus inviting him to participate in "a special hunt... for a special prey." The reward is five million credits for the capture of the deranged leader of the Bando Gora, Komari Vosa. The Gora are a group of Force-worshiping criminals who are proving a thorn in the side of Tyranus and Darth Sidious' plans. Jango reluctantly agrees to the hunt despite Roz acknowledging the danger in attempting to defeat such an adversary.

There are rumors that the Bando Gora are behind some strange narcotics shipments (referred to as 'death sticks'), and Jango decides to pursue a low-life death stick dealer named Jervis Gloom, who is wanted by the Coruscant police. Jango captures Gloom in the Entertainment District, and coerces him into revealing his sources. This leads Jango to a nerf processing plant in the Industrial Sector, run by a gangster named Groff Haugg. When Jango arrives, however, he encounters Montross, a Mandalorian bounty hunter, who has already tortured and killed Haugg. Jango learns that both Montross and himself are pursuing the same prey. Jango fights Montross, who flees, before finding a message on Haugg's computer terminal from the gangster's co-conspirator, the corrupt Senator Trell. Jango then fights his way through Trell's heavily-guarded apartment tower to the Senator's penthouse, and learns that the death sticks came from a Malastare crime lord named Sebolto. Jango proceeds to kill Trell by throwing him off the building before fighting with a Corusant Security Force Gunship, destroying the ship with a grenade launcher and sending it crashing to the streets below.

Jango then proceeds to the asteroid prison Oovo IV to jail break Bendix Fust, with the idea of delivering him to Sebolto to curry favour with the gangster. Deep in the prison, Jango is surprised when another bounty hunter, Zam Wesell, reaches Fust before him. The two meet at gunpoint, but are forced to work together to escape. Jango's ship, Jaster's Legacy is destroyed, so he breaks back in and destroys a prison security ship, before commandeering a Firespray class police ship, naming it Slave I. Before leaving, Fett destroys the hangar. Montross- across the galaxy- realizes that Haugg gave him a false lead. When Montross hears of the riot at Oovo Iv, he realizes that Jango is on the right trail and heads to Malastare.

Fett and Wesell travel to Malastare to deliver Fust to Sebolto. When Sebolto realises what is happening, he flees, but falls down a pipe into a Death Stick Factory, crashing into a wall and falling down a chasm into the Death Stick liquid. Jango ventures through the factory, and eventually comes to a cave crawling with members of the Bando Gora. Once he gets past them, he reaches a supply ship. On further inspection, he finds Huttese markings on it. Montross again reappears and taunts Fett about the death of his adoptive father Jaster Mereel and the disastrous battle at Galidraan when the Mandalorians were wiped out by a Jedi ambush. Jango battles Montross, with Wesell providing cover fire and allow the two to escape.

Not knowing which Hutt is involved with the Bando Gora, the pair split up to question the two Hutts, Jabba and Gardulla. After killing Longo Two-Gun and his gang and giving their bodies to Jabba (who wanted the whole gang dead or alive) Jango questions him and finds Jabba to be uninvolved, with Jabba asking for Jango to kill Gardulla. Fett proceeds to Gardulla's palace through the Jundland wastes, battling Tusken Raiders and Gardulla's guards, before finding Wesell in a holding cell. He tries to leave her there to avoid sounding an alarm, but she compromises his position, and he is apprehended. After escaping detainment (and discovering that Wesell is a changeling), Fett reaches Gardulla, who refuses to give up Vosa's location. Fett then feeds Gardulla to her own Krayt dragon, before finishing the Krayt dragon off himself. Out of anger for her betrayal, he leaves Wesell on Tatooine to continue searching for Vosa alone.

Fett contacts Rozatta, but Montross is listening in and attacks the station, rigging it to explode. Montross then taunts Fett, telling him that his friend is in danger. Enraged, he temporarily abandons his mission to help Rozatta. When he arrives, he discovers she is fatally wounded, but before she dies, she is able to give him a guidance device to help him track Vosa, who Rozatta managed to locate on Kohlma, a moon of Bogden. Fett leaves Outland Station, with it exploding moments later.

Fett arrives on Kohlma, discovering the hideout of the Bando Gora. After fighting his way across the planet's surface, he arrives at Vosa's castle, where he finds Montross is already waiting for him, and they duel a final time with Montross wearing his Mandalorian helmet and jetpack. Jango finally defeats Montross, who wishes to have a warrior's death. Fett, however, as a means of revenge for Rozatta, lets the Bando Gora tear Montross to pieces as he walks away. Upon entering the castle, he is taken prisoner by the Bando Gora. He is tortured both physically and mentally by Vosa. However, Wesell then arrives, but is injured by Vosa. As Vosa moves to kill her, Wesell blasts Jango's restraints, freeing him. Fett follows Vosa through the castle and battles her before fatally wounding her. As she dies, Darth Tyranus steps from the shadows and greets Fett. Tyranus explains that the entire ordeal was a test, and Fett has passed with flying colours. He offers Fett a considerably larger sum to go to Kamino, to be the template for a clone army. Fett agrees, on the condition that he gets the first unaltered clone for himself (passing on his legacy as Rozatta had requested he do before she died). The game ends with Fett carrying the wounded Wesell to Slave I.
