Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order received positive critical reception as an extension of Star Wars mythology, taking place during Emperor Palpatine's Order 66 purge of the Jedi. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order's gameplay concentrates on thoughtful lightsaber parries, combined with puzzle-centric Force abilities. Having sold over 10 million copies, it would appear likely that Respawn Entertainment's run at single-player, narrative-driven Star Wars games is only just beginning.
More speculation has recently shed light upon what may be next for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Fans have shared their desire for a third installment in the controversial Star Wars: Battlefront franchise, or at least continued development on the latest Star Wars: Battlefront 2. Rather, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was able to navigate EA Star Wars' reputation back into a favorable position. Teases shared between two outlets online seem to be confirming that EA plans to continue producing installments from the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order franchise. As spotted by Pure Xbox, Star Wars fans may have more news to look forward to next month.
Explicit teases are being hinted at through an unsubtle exchange between Game Informer and official representatives for EA Star Wars on social media. The pair appear to be cooperating in tandem with one another to excite fans, with particular phrasings being noted. Game Informer mentions Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order with regard to "EA Play next month," and EA Star Wars has isolated a single quote from the outlet that may prepare fans for upcoming information. Stating that it is an opportune time for fans to be interested in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order may seemingly suggest that news is on its way.Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order's next-gen enhancement recently launched, bringing cross-generation updates with improved texture resolutions and smoother framerates. But the game released in November of 2019, and fans suspect that development may have been underway for a sequel during the pandemic.
If a true sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is on its way, there are many developments that could take place in the game's timeline. It would likely replace the original game's subtitle with another, similar to how the films have operated. Of course, there is currently no official confirmation that news about Jedi: Fallen Order or an alleged sequel will be announced. But it may be fair for fans to anticipate news in some capacity during EA Play.
EA Play Live is scheduled for July 22, so fans will be able to hear shortly if Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will have a sequel announced.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
