star wars survival horror - battlefront 2's ewok hunt was terrifying

Jack just revealed how much he lieks star wars by identifying the R5 droid within 2 frames

jack is the only stormtrooper that can aim lol

Seeing jack not reloading when low shows how much of a Helldiver he is

star wars is supprisingly perfect for horror. imagine a crashed ship, few troopers, on kashyyk being hunted by a single wookie preditor style. wookies are hard asf

12:12 "What kind of run is that?" The run of a man who just completely evacuated his bowels

"They're zombies now?" "They're zombies now."

The books (Death Troopers and Red Harvest) this was based on were great. Star Wars horror that was very well written. Especially Red Harvest

Omg the jedi knight jedi outcast sounds... It brings you back

13:41 Hearing the old Battlefront sound effect was such a nice touch

The Death Troopers book was a great Star Wars zombie story, always thought it would make an interesting video game.

The way this is modelled got me thinking how nice a Star Wars game using the old Kenner action figures would be, wonder if Lucas/Disney have ever considered it.

The inspiration for this was project blackwing a imperial virus that went horribly wrong abroad an imperial prison ship (which sadly only about 5 people made it out alive the rest were either infected or eaten and the virus never made it out because the infection needed to stay close to the main source of the virus otherwise the current host/vessel dies)

I would absolutely love an R-rated horror film in the Star Wars universe. There's so much potential there!

This genuinely has potential, I only wish It was slightly more lore friendly. Using the plot of say Dathomir and the Nightsisters as the cause. Could even be as simple as the Nightsisters growing tired of the imperial reign and decided to strike back.

Death Troopers is an old and awesome Star Wars novel! 10/10 would recommend!

The one jarring thing that I cant look past is the fact they're covered in armour and helmets and blood so none of it makes sense they're not biting each other. Just seems silly when I think too deeply 😂

Battlefront 2 Ewok Hunt was absolutely awesome. In Clonewars there was an episode with infested clones. Would love to see smth like this. In general: If they made smth like Rogue Squad with the Bad Batch that'd be absolutely amazing

stormtrooper hittin that lego star wars stealth walk animation 😂😂

"Somehow, they're zombies now"

Death troopers was an honestly super good book About time a game was finally made This is a big ein

Umbrella corp has reach space.😂

Finally a good looking game about death troopers 😍😍😍😍

That capt jack sparrow run though 😂😂😂

this was a book/comic back in the 90's and it was amazing. I will 100% be playing this

thank you for playing this and giving it some traction!!

Death Troopers was one of the more tragic losses in Disney's acquisition.

jackfrags, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!

Dude I READ THOSE BOOKS growing up! Deathtroopers in 2009, and a couple years later: Red Harvest. Those are some of my favorite books, they keep you on the edge of your seat and I absolutely loved them. Loved seeing this ohmage to them, would love a full on Deathtroopers game set in that universe. If you loved Dead Space, you will love Deathtroopers, I might pick them up on audio just to re-experience them.

I haven’t been this early since the Falcon was owned by Lando

Boy, how I would’ve loved to make a death troopers game-skit with these engines. People are gonna get more and more talented as time goes by

The amount of crazy bullshit in the Star Wars universe, I don't know why they haven't done more horror. Even just the "survive the night against ewoks" game mode showed the potential. Hell, they have the Rakghouls among other thing.

Raindrops are falling upside down! Very cool👍

Hey Jack great vid mate keep it up, this game is awesome!

I see you're explorting the derilict ship Vector, good luck enjoying the sickness. Complimetns of project blackwing

So, for some information, the game seems to be a sequel to the Death Trooper book, as the ships mentioned in one of the droid's narrations is called the Purge. This is the prisoner ship that docked with the Zombie Star Destroyer in the Death Trooper Book, and led to Zombie Wookies as Jack was speculating.

A classic fan fiction that became a novel, very scary story and a decent read

If you'd like to see another indie game, check out Angels Fall First. It's early access but is a fully working game and while it has taken them a long time, they are still developing it. 64 player infantry and space combat. Can play with others, but also playable fully offline with bots. General consensus is that this game never got the attention it deserved.

Zombiewoks!! Not to be confused with undead Chinese cookware.

just wait till you see the sequel to star wars empire at war

I'm too much of a wuss to play horror games, but I'm happy to watch you play it. It looks intriguing and I wish the developer every success 🙂

I love this! So awesome and i cant believe it hasnt been done! Really excited to see zombie ewoks and wookies 🤣💀

Great find! My son will enjoy this as he is a huge Star Wars fan.

Jack is the last person this excited for Star Wars.

Everyone streaming Grayzone Warfare, meanwhile Jack:

I'm a huge fan of your channel. I just saw that you've tried Destiny 2 and I loved your review of it. That's my game of choice right now. Love to see more of it and you testing out the PVP side of it and what your honest thoughts of it. Especially Gambit. I don't take part in the crucible part because of the way noobs like me are put up against sweats.

I remember there was an official Star Wars mobile game Clash of Clans like game back in the day and it had zombies

These games are genuinely so cool!

Made me scream and jump at times, glad it was you and not me playing this thing

The original game was an indie game called "Cargo" it was about a TV headed monster infesting the ship or smth like that.

Imagine a full fletched game where there's multiple levels trying to escape the death star (or a ship maybe) and last level timed since it's going to blow up. Then you land on Endor and have to survive the Ewoks who slowly shows up. You can also find other stormtroopers. Make them human, give them backstories, have one tell you he had to join to provide for his family. Get rescued by The Empire with just 1 other of your teammates surviving (the one with family) Later you are invading Kashyyk or something. With that mate on team yes. It all goes wrong, The Empire was too greedy with ressources. You get isolated from squad and captured. The rebels interrogate you. You explain you were forced into The Empire. You get put into jail, some cutscenes will play of you getting jobs. Sweeping floors long nights.... But then more and more included you become. You smile to the Rebels as you are serving food, no longer being watched. You get your own place to live and freedom. You enjoy the friendlyness of the Rebels and realise they are right.... Then The Empire blows your base up, some of the new friends you've made dies. You are recruited into the army to save the base from The Empire. Then you go into missions as the rebels. You become a respected soldier. More gear and abilities unlock yada yada. (Maybe you are force sensitive too and Luke notices? Could be a concept.) You become a high ranking and respected officer. Until eventually you stand face to face with your old Stormtrooper friend who you got separated with before your capture.... He changed and says you are now his enemy, being brainwashed by The Empires ideology.... He removes his helmet, both emotional yada yada Either you have to kill him, or the game could end by him killing you.... I really just want devs to make a nice Star Wars thing. Humanising Stormtroopers seems popular (okay also some hate it).... Game could still work without the human thing, but I kinda want a good story too.

We already (kinda) have a star wars Horror game. Its called Star wars Republic Commando. The Ship mission was scarry.😶😶😶😶

No matter what you do with Star Wars you can't change the fact that people are running around in plastic armour fighting teddy bears and scottish terrier bigfoots.

Undead Darth Vadar.... Even Palpatine would Cower in fear of such a possibility.

Ah got to love slow mo in games. Think they missed a trick though, think how terrifying it would be to be the lone survivor being hunted by hundreds of just normal ewoks. Dropping logs and boulders on you from nowhere, pit traps, and wild beasts. Being swarmed by ewoks with knives. Though I guess you could kill an ewok in a second, just kick its face off.

12:39 that og SWBF2 sound effect tho gotta love it! Oh man there's a lot of swbf2 stuff.

I instantly recognized that little beep sound effect from the Jedi Knight series from way back.

I love the slowed style because if EA were to make a Dead Space spiritual successor in the Star Wars universe, it honestly could have been fantastic if it were based on Death Troopers. Just seeing the intro to the demo for the second game with the crash-landed stormtrooper makes me hope the dev(s) get to make a game like this even if they aren't able to make a full-priced Star Wars game due to legal reasons.

pretty sure this game is based upon the "Death Troopers" novel, in which an imperial experimant gains sentience and infects an entire destroyer with a black, ink-like liquid which serves to connect them bodies to a hive mind type consciousness

Death Trooper audiobook right here

Truly glorious

I believe this is actually based of a cannon story in the Star Wars universe. I vaguely remember a comic or novel describing a zombie like virus infecting a star destroyer and Han Solo infiltrating it. I can’t quite remember

Something Disney would never allow with their hostage of a franchise but in another universe I imagine it would've happened.

This is exactly what I expected. Near perfect.

It's a fan game based on the book Deathtroopers. I definitely recommend a read.

Star wars mixed with system shock would be an amazing idea

This was terrific

This genuinely looks better than a triple A game lmaooo

a Star Wars fan makes a horror game. "Disney wants to know your location".

Never did I think Survival Horror would find its way to STAR WARS 😂 but it works surprisingly well 👍👍

I've read Deathtroopers, it's a phenomenal book! Always wondered if they'd ever turn it into a game or movie.

Got to say it - I'm impressed.

4:18 "...and it SLAPS!"

This looks awesome! Ewok hunt on nightmare fuel lol

This is horror for real - stormtrooper who actually hits his targets is terrifying

The closest horror game we had was either ewok hunt on BF2 or the Ghost Ship level on Republic Commando... Truly terrifying......

I love seeing this. Indy developers pushing out triple A quality looking games. All the big game companies are in such weird spots. They need to start looking at all these projects smaller talented developers are doing and sign them aboard or publish their products.

Wow, this is the first time I see a Stormtrooper actually hitting something!

Star Wars is weirdly primed for interesting horror stories but they’ll never do it. I’d like one alien isolation style where you’re a clone trooper trying to escape a Jedi that turns to the dark side immediately after a botched order 66 execution and they’ve just gone full psycho dismembering and crushing people

It has been done, but not in the world of zombies. The Ewok hunt is absolutely terrifying.

Project Blackwing, this looks so cool.

Jackfrags' channel is the droid that you've been looking for!

There’s a book called Death Troopers that is pretty much this game but it’s Han Solo and Chewbacca, iirc, who find the infested Star destroyer ship

The beginning reminded me of halo combat evolved! You know when you first meet the flood bbrrrr

The cover for the book this is based on gave me nightmares as a kid

Ewok Hunt was already a horror mode

This is something a big developer needs to take advantage of

The mighty heel of the Empire will mercilessly prance atop our enemies!

Oh god, i just realized this could actually be cannon but then its god damn green witch magic 😖

Hahaha the pink panther walk 😅

Reminds me of the spooky mission in Republic Commando :D

this gives me serious death troopers novel vibes

That would have been funny if the Scout Trooper missed unaliving himself lol

"C H R O M A T I C A B B E R A T I O N" - The Devs

Aren't the TIE-fighter troopers supposed to have black armor? Or did that trooper steal that ship? Lore plot thickens

This would make such an incredible film

The book that this game is based on is pretty good too.

I read the Death Troopers book, it was rather good!

Zombie Vader isn't real. He can't hurt you. Zombie Vader proceeds to make a storm trooper shish kabob.

Man the endor at night mission was horror In itself
