Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will have players step into the role of Cal Kestis, who is played by Gotham’s Cameron Monaghan. The story will be all new, following the events of Order 66, and players will have quite the time as the title will focus on combat and using abilities to dispatch enemies. During the panel at Star Wars Celebration, the Respawn team also touched on more about what the game entails.
“Many Star Wars fans, ourselves included, are really interested in the dark times, so we wanted to explore that mysterious, dangerous period,” director Stig Asmussen said. “The team at Lucasfilm have been amazing collaborators, helping us explore and further develop this part of the timeline where the Empire is at the height of its power and any remaining Jedi are in hiding. Within this narrative, we’ve crafted a game with intense, yet thoughtful and fun melee combat using the lightsaber and Force powers, allowing anyone to fulfill their Jedi fantasy.”
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is set to arrive on November 15th for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
