Jedi are sought after like gold inStar Wars. The Empire has long since made Jedi and those that areForce-sensitivean enemy to the galaxy far, far away. WithStar WarsJedi: Survivorfeaturing Cal Kestis as his journey through the galaxy continues, it’s no surprise that he will face many that seek his death for the prize and reward of killing a Jedi.

The trailers forStar WarsJedi: Survivorhave already shown Cal inquite the predicamentwith bounty hunters, which paves way for some potentially interesting encounters. Hopefully, some iconicStar Warsbounty hunters will appear, furthering the legacy of the bestStar Warsbounty hunters.
As one of the most feared bounty hunters in the galaxy, Cad Bane is certainly someone that people would hope is not interested in their bounty. Cad Bane hasyears of experiencein the field and has tussled with Jedi before as if it was easy as anything.
He’s known for his no-nonsense attitude and his oversized hat. To see this space cowboy in a video game would be to the joy of many, as Cad Bane has quickly become one of the most popularStar Warsbounty hunters, thanks to his design, personality, and skills with weapons or otherwise.
7Bossk
One of the toughest bounty hunters, Bossk even helped to train Boba Fett for a time. This Trandoshan bounty hunterdeserves more time in the spotlight,andStar WarsJedi: Survivorcan provide just that. Bossk has rarely been seen in video games orStar Warscontent actually in his prime of bounty hunting.
It would be interesting to see the tactics and ways that Bossk would try and defeat a Jedi prey, as he is no stranger to that prey, as Bossk was hunting Ahsoka Tano for sport during the Clone Wars, something that may be useful if he takes on Cal Kestis.
6Durge
Although Durge may have a confusing relationship with canon and Legends, the appearance of Durge inStar WarsJedi: Survivorcould spell great things. Fans constantly love whenStar Warsbrings back characters from Legends, and none could be more perfect than the bounty hunter Durge.
What makes Durge such a threat is he isconsidered by most as unkillable. In Legends, he was a great threat to the Jedi, because he could simply grow back. Fighting Durge as Cal Kestis could be horrifying and a unique encounter, and leaves a greater mystery as to what lurks beneath the armor.
5Boba Fett
He’s a bounty hunter trying to make his way through the universe, like his father before him. Boba Fett may have grown up as the son of the famous bounty hunter Jango Fett, but when the tragedy took his father, Boba became stronger and more bitter. His hatred for Jedi could spur a hunt for Cal Kestis, in a potential ongoing effort to find Mace Windu.

The appearance of Boba Fett could be grand, as there’s never too much of one of the best bounty hunters. The character is beloved by so many, and even features in Disney PlusStar Warscontent, with hopefully more to come.
4IG-88
Despite being created as anIG-series assassin droid, IG-88 decided to go rogue and became a bounty hunter alongside peers like Boba Fett and Bossk. IG-88 is an incredibly intelligent droid and bounty hunter and could be a potential threat to Cal Kestis’ quest through the galaxy far, far away, due to his cunning calculation and machine-like movements.
If IG-88 fights anything like IG-11, an IG-series droid seen inThe Mandalorian, then players and Cal Kestis are in for a hard time, as this assassin droid was able to shoot 360 degrees without so much as a glance at his target.
3Black Krrsantan
Wookiees have the strength to tear the arms off of anyone, and they have the anger issues to do so. Black Krrsantan is a Wookiee bounty hunter that has a certain lack of patience, and a disdain for Jedi. After all, Krrsantan sought out Jedi before, which left him with a scar over his eye thanks to anencounter with Obi-Wan Kenobi,who was hiding out on Tatooine.

Krrsantan is a hulking mass of fur and muscle and could cause great terror to Cal Kestis. What also makes Krrsantan an interesting choice other than his strength is his desire, as theBook of Boba Fettsaw the character working for the Hutts.Star WarsJedi: Survivorcould further flesh out Krrsantan’s allegiances.
2Dengar
Dengar is an interesting subject. This bounty hunter works naught for fame or total fortune, but for whatever is the easiest way to help him get by. Dengar loves to gamble, and gambling on this bounty could supply him with enough credits to retire merry and happy. Dengar is due for the spotlight, and what better way than to have him battle a Jedi?
Dengar is a pretty crude bounty hunter, who isn’t afraid to be smug and confident. Dengar has a good working relationship with the Hutts, one that came about thanks to his brutality in combat, one that hopefully players will experience as Cal Kestis.
1Fennec Shand
To further connect the video games, movies, animation, and live-action shows of Disney-eraStar Wars, Fennec Shand would be the perfect candidate for a role inStar WarsJedi: Survivor. The character is at large during the Clone Wars andafter the fall of the Empire, meaning there’s a huge gap in her story waiting to be explored.
Fennec Shand quickly became an iconicStar Warscharacter thanks to her role inThe MandalorianandThe Book of Boba Fett.Star WarsJedi: Survivorcould further cement her as a ruthless, intelligent, and cunning character.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivorreleases on July 01, 2025 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
