nless Respawn and EA
are using their
combined powers to
perform some kind of
Jedi mind trick to fool
us, Jedi: Fallen Order looks set to
become one of the best Star Wars
games ever made, and it’s out soon.
The excitement of the game’s
imminent release is matched only by
the thought of playing a game set
during one of the most dangerous and
tumultuous times in Star Wars history.
It takes place three years after the
devastating surprise execution of
Order 66, in which the Republic clone
army turned against the Jedi. You play
as survivor Cal Kestis, a Padawan who,
due to this Jedi purge, was forced into
hiding and left unable to complete his
training to become a Jedi Knight. After
being discovered he goes on the run,
hunted by a Sith Inquisitor. Joined by
his droid companion, BD-1, Cal must
use his powers and abilities to help
the Rebellion and fight back against
the rise of the Galactic Empire.
Taking inspiration from the likes of
Dark Souls and Metroid, you’ll be
treated to immensely satisfying and
in-depth lightsaber
combat, offering you that
ultimate Jedi power
fantasy, and a sprawling
world to explore with more
areas being unlocked as
you progress and obtain
new abilities. Q

BELOW There’s some Tomb Raider-esque
exploration involved, too.
JEDI: FALLEN ORDER

combat involves patience and expert
use of parrying.
