We establish existence of controlled Markov chain of mean-field type with unbounded jump intensities by means of a fixed point argument using the Wasserstein distance. Using a Markov chain entropic backward SDE approach, we further suggest conditions for existence of an optimal control and a saddle-point for respectively a control problem and a zero-sum differential game associated with risk sensitive payoff functionals of mean-field type.
