During Electronic Arts’ recent quarterly earnings call, COO and CFO Blake Jorgensen touched on the upcoming Star Wars game from Respawn. “You’ll start to see in the next few months glimpses of the Star Wars game and I think you’ll be blown away by what you see,” Jorgensen said.
The CFO even mentioned that he recently got to play a bit of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. “We played twenty-plus minutes of it last week and it is exceptional in terms of its level of polish, depth, and living inside the Star Wars world as a Jedi,” he said. “I think people will be blown away by it.”
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is planned for a release sometime this fall, but EA has kept the specifics on that under wraps. If you’re looking to see what else the company had to say during the quarterly earnings call, check out the full transcript from Yahoo Finance right here.
With Apex Legends breaking into the battle royale scene in a pretty big way, the upcoming Star Wars title, and even more Titanfall related experiences set to arrive later this year, Respawn is looking to have quite the 2019. Here’s more on their new title:
“Choose from a lineup of outlaws, soldiers, misfits, and misanthropes, each with their own set of skills,” reads the game’s official description. “The Apex Games welcome all comers โ survive long enough, and they call you a Legend.”
- If you’re going to survive the Apex Games, you have to think fast. Master your Legend’s abilities, make strategic calls on the fly, and use your team’s strengths to your advantage in vicious 60-player matches.
Experience the next evolution of battle royale with Respawn Beacons you can use to resurrect your teammates, Smart Comms to help you communicate, Intelligent Inventory so you can grab only what you need, and an all-new way to drop into the action with Jumpmaster deployment.
- Compete every season to unlock new Legends, fresh weapons, themed loot, and more.
