Ultimately, this process will lead to the lair of a criminal gang, and players will need to subdue a boss within to complete their bounties. With the Starbound1.4 Bounty Hunter update, fans will find themselves as the newest recruit in the Peacekeepers, tasked with story missions focused on taking down 'intergalactic gangs across multiple planets.' In order to accomplish this noble task, players will need to track these world-hopping baddies by finding clues and following their trails. Indeed, the Starbound 1.4 Bounty Hunter update is here, and it has added a new Peacekeeper faction and looks to turn players into intergalactic bounty hunters.
Since then, the company has offered intermittent updates on Starbound bounty hunting, and now, nearly two years after the announcement, this Starbound update has finally arrived. In September 2017, developer Chucklefish announced that a forthcoming update to Starbound would bring bounty hunting to the procedurally generated sci-fi game.
