Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order May Have Some Type of Xbox Partnership

Earlier this month, developer Respawn Entertainment and publisher EA unveiled Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, a brand-new single-player Star Wars game in development for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Interestingly, after the reveal, a partnership with Xbox was revealed, but not really detailed. At the time, it simply manifested in some Xbox-specific prizes. And if the partnership was limited to just this, then that's not a very big deal. However, it's possible this was part of a much larger partnership.

Now, Repsawn and EA have already announced the game will release on November 15 via the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. So we know there won't be any timed-exclusivity shenanigans, but there could be a marketing deal in place. This could mean that the game will appear on Microsoft's E3 stage this June, or that advertisement for the game will use the Xbox splash screen. It could also mean Xbox One players will get some exclusive in-game items or goodies. Who knows. Unfortunately, at the moment, all we can do is speculate.

As you may know, third-party games are constantly striking partnerships with Microsoft and Sony, most of which are of no real significance. But sometimes the partnerships do carry some weight, like Sony's with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and the Destiny series.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is poised to release worldwide on November 15 via the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. At the moment of publishing, there's been no word of a Stadia port. As for a Nintendo Switch port, EA has already come out and said it has no plans to bring the game to the Nintendo system.
