With its release, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order has given Star Wars fans an excellent excuse to grab a controller and jump back into the story of the galaxy far, far away. This Star Wars story is not only excellent on its own, but actually adds to the Star Wars canon. There’s almost no reason for fans of the franchise not to pick it up.
With such a large number of worlds to unpack, however, a lot can remain undiscovered by even the most astute player on this journey. Take a brief break from becoming a master Jedi and make sure not to miss anything important when venturing out to save the galaxy.Â
Updated 05/03/2021 by Erik Petrovich: In addition to the multitude of secret locations and items in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, there are a variety of callbacks and references to other Star Wars media. The game is deeply connected to the original saga and the most recent major entries in the franchise. However, it also shares common ground with the TV shows and even the Disney theme parks. Here are a few extra secrets fans should look for.
13 Stormtrooper's Episode III Banter
While traveling in Kashyyk, the player can choose to listen to two Stormtroopers stationed in an interior base. There's a lot of different things the player can overhear in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but these two have a special line of dialogue.
While eavesdropping, one of the Stormtroopers will remark, "At least we have the high ground," a reference to the final scene from Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
12 The Galaxy's Edge Lightsaber Can Be Crafted
Galaxy's Edge is the Star Wars-themed area of both Disneyland and Disney World. Fans who visit can find parts to a custom lightsaber all over the area. In Jedi: Fallen Order, these parts can also be found, tying the theme park and the Star Wars universe together in some way.
Savi's Workshop in Black Spire Outpost, the name of the settlement at Galaxy's Edge, is where Disneyland and Disney World visitors can find these pieces in real life. In the game, they are scattered throughout.
11 Obi-Wan Kenobi Appears In A Hologram
Obi-Wan Kenobi is getting his very own feature film in the coming years, but he has appeared in Star Wars media frequently since his last major appearance in Star Wars Episode III. In Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the player can find a hologram that depicts Obi-Wan describing the events of Order 66.
The player can find this hologram, called a Jedi Beacon in-game, early on while learning about Holocrons. It's a brief moment, as Obi-Wan only says one line. Nevertheless, it's significant. It's the same line and the same voice as shown in Star Wars Rebels, when Kanan witnesses Obi-Wan's recording he made during the events of the third Star Wars movie.
10 Creature & Yoda Polygonal Models
 Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order absolutely packed with hidden treasures, secret areas, and fun easter eggs that will have the players searching every single centimeter of the game's large and varied maps. One that fans may have missed can be found in the Tomb of Eilram.
Players can find this secret after making an awkward jump off of a ledge near a puzzle room. This will lead to a hidden room jutting out of the side of the cavern wall. Inside, players will find some very low-res models of some of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order’s favorite creatures, if they jumped in the correct way. There’s even a little Yoda, though he's definitely looked better.
9 Humming Probe Droid
While there are many droids and various enemies that will fall to the player's mighty lightsaber and force powers, there are perhaps very few of them that will do it with as much style and grace as one of the probe droids on Ilum.
Though it doesn’t appear to happen anywhere else, if players use a force pull on a probe droid with BD-1 nearby on Ilum, the probe droid will hum the Imperial March as is it pulled to its inevitable demise. It seems to be more likely to happen if BD-1 hacks the Probe Droid after it is force pulled.
8 Memorial To Master Mar Ti Kam’ron
This is perhaps the only easter egg with a real-life connection (aside from the Galaxy's Edge connections). At the top of the Jedi Temple on Ilum, players will stumble upon a memorial.
Upon closer inspection, players will find that the memorial is marked for a master Mar Ti Kam’rom. This refers to the father of one of the game's developers, Nicholas G. Cameron. Cameron’s father, unfortunately, passed away during the development of the game. To honor his father, he added a memorial to the game for his real-life Jedi Master.
7 Bogling Companion
Players will have their droid pal BD-1 to help them make their way through the galaxy. However, some players may want a companion a little more cuddly than the small, but useful, droid. For anyone feeling the vast emptiness of space, look no further than Bogano.
After unlocking the force push, fly to Bogano and move beneath the landing area to find this new friend. There is a breakable wall that, when broken with the force, reveals a trapped bogling. Perhaps in its own way of saying thank you, this bogling will then make its way to the ship. The player can find it again in several different areas throughout the game.
6 Secret XP & Force Essence
There is no doubt that at some point players will have get past the Rabid Jotaz on Zeffo – it’s just an inevitability. But after players have made their way through the rabid beast, there is a good opportunity for some pretty serious looting.
After defeating the Rabid Jotaz, take the path to the bottom level, then follow the path for a few minutes while defeating enemies along the way. Eventually, the player will swim through an area leading to a room. Break down some wires around the room with a pool, then overload a few circuits to be rewarded with some XP and Force Essence. Just make sure to cut the wires before overloading.
5 Health Stim Upgrades On Kashyyk
One of the great things about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is that, like many of the greatest Metroidvania-type games, players must revisit areas they’ve been to before. It's the only way to experience the game to its fullest and discover all of the secrets.
For instance, in order to get this health stim upgrade on Kashyyk, players must return to the planet's Ice Caves after acquiring the Double Jump ability. A rope in the cave can be force pulled, climbed, then jumped off to catch an updraft and ride a zipline upwards. The Health Stim upgrade is located at the top of this zip.
4 Hidden Force Essence On Kashyyk
When players made their way through the Imperial Refinery for the first time, the story revolved around freeing captive Wookies. After completing this story, they might notice a control room right above the initial area.
Players must then make their way to the pipe that leads in the opposite direction of the control room after fighting a few stormtroopers and a security droid that guards the path. They will find two fans, which need to be slowed down. Past these lies the reward: force essence.
3 Â The Room With Many Crates On Kashyyk
After acquiring the Force Essence in the Imperial Refinery, don't jump down yet. Instead, continue to move, force push the rocket back into the face of the stormtrooper that fired it. Kill all the remaining troopers in the room, and the player will find a number of chests containing great loot.
In the chests are a BD-1 Skin, lightsaber material, a new poncho, and a Stim Canister. Not only will players be heavily rewarded for their efforts, but they’ll get to make a Stormtrooper's plans literally explode in their face.
2 Â Life Essence On Zeffo
Another prize that players must go back to find is on Zeffo. Later in the game, after learning the double jump, players who return to Zeffo should make their way towards the weathered monument in the Gusty Bluffs.
Once there, head towards the spinning fans and look upwards for a meditation circle. Slow the spinning fans and continue upwards towards the area. It will require a little bit of platforming to make it all the way, but at the end of the segment, the player will find a crate containing Life Essence.Â
1 Â Crates In And Around The Waters Of The Zeffo Crash Site
While players are on Zeffo, they’ll want to stick around and explore in and around the waters of the crash site. Should players decide to go for a little swim below the murky waters of the crash site, they’ll be rewarded with the Fjord Poncho and some lightsaber materials.
After players have taken a refreshing dip in the water, head back to land and find a rope near a crashed plane. At the top of the rope, using Overchargeto start a series of pulverizers, then slow them down to climb upwards. There's a Life Essence at the end of the platforming segment.
