In addition to The Mandalorian, Epic Games has brought several exciting new characters into the mix, along with new weapons and locations, including a sci-fi desert (meaning it has pink sand) and a tropical jungle zone. New weapons mentioned above include the Dragon's Breath shotgun, the Mandalorian's Amban sniper rifle, and a tracking weapon called The Night Hawk.
