Today, Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts have shown off the first looks for Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order. This new third-person action adventure game is set to explore the life of Cal Kestis, a young padawan on the run from Order 66. Kestis must explore his “shattered past” to complete his training and stay one step ahead of the pursuing empire. An official trailer was also revealed, which can be seen below:
Cal Kestis’ story begins on the planet of Brecca, an all-new planet in the Star Wars universe which is the first of many more locations that are to be explored. Kestis, portrayed by Cameron Monaghan (Gotham, Shameless), accidentally uses his force powers while hiding in plain sight, marking the beginning of the story. The deadly Second Sister, an elite Imperial Inquisitor, is hot on his tail and looks to be the main antagonist. Many friends and familiar faces will be met along the way, alongside the droid companion, BD-1.
Respawn has ensured fans that this title won’t feature any microtransactions or online elements. This is solely a single-player story-driven game that fans can enjoy. Gameplay is the main focus, despite none being shown in this initial reveal. Fans won’t have to wait too long for this title, since it launches November 15, 2019, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
