Game description: It is the year 2071 and the humanity is living in an interplanetary society. A new breed of "cowboy" bounty hunters pursue outlaws across the lawless solar system in the hope of receiving high rewards for the hackers, drug-dealers and terrorists they capture. As one of three bounty hunters: Spike, Jet or Faye, you must unravel the mysteries of the Cowboy Bebop story. Use Spike's Jeet Kune Do skills or Jet's bulldog-style fighting techniques to defeat more than 50 different outlaws and then reap the rewards.
