Starfield With Over 100 Star Wars Mods Looks Like the Mandalorian Game We Never Got
EA might have canceled a Mandalorian shooter in development at Respawn Entertainment, but one YouTuber has created the next-best thing via Bethesda’s Starfield and over Star Wars 100 mods.
YouTuber DeityVengy used the power of mods to turn Starfield into a cool-looking Mandalorian game, complete with the Mandalorian suit replacing the main character model, Star Wars aliens, weapons, characters, and units. There’s even a Star Wars-themed HUD to make Starfield feel even more in-universe. As for gameplay, we see an AT-ST fight, a blast-off with Imperial Security, a fight with Purge Troopers, and loads more. Starfield’s jetpack movement and shooting lends itself really well to recreating the Mandalorian fantasy.

DeityVengy said they added pretty much every single Star Wars mod for Starfield as a foundation, then started doing custom editing. “This is still a huge work in progress,” DeityVengy said in the comments. “Everyday I discover a mod or two to add to this as well as new mods releasing everyday. I can't wait to see what the future holds with Bethesda's upcoming Creation Kit. Hope to see you guys again in the future.”
In February, EA announced it was shutting down an early development Star Wars FPS action game as a part of an ongoing focus on its own owned brands and supporting its existing games. Not much is known about the Star Wars FPS, but it was rumored to feature a Mandalorian protagonist in some way.
EA does have a number of Star Wars video games in the works, including a Star Wars: Jedi 3 and a Star Wars strategy game. But there’s no known Mandalorian video game in the works, leaving Starfield modders as fans’ only hope. Bethesda has said Starfield will get a Creation Kit update, which will add official modding support and of course increase the game’s longevity. There’s no timeframe for its release, however.
