Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a single-player, third-person action game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. Set between Episodes III and IV of the Star Wars saga, the game introduces an original story with fresh characters. You play as Cal Kestis, a young Jedi Padawan who survived the execution of Order 66 and is now evading the Empire’s relentless pursuit. With a richly detailed world powered by Unreal Engine 4, the game promises a visually stunning experience that brings the Star Wars universe to life.
Gameplay
In Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, you step into the shoes of Cal Kestis, a Jedi with impressive Force abilities. Use the Force to manipulate the environment—swing across chasms by summoning vines, run alongside walls, and push objects to clear obstacles. Cal’s lightsaber is a versatile tool for both combat and exploration, serving as a powerful weapon and a source of light. Engage in intense battles where you can slice through enemies, throw your lightsaber at distant foes, and utilize Force techniques like slowing time and pulling enemies closer for a decisive strike. Combat earns you skill points to upgrade Cal’s abilities.
Accompanying you on your journey is BD-1, a resourceful droid that assists in opening doors and provides support throughout your adventure.
Story and Characters
Following the betrayal by Chancellor Palpatine and the subsequent execution of Order 66, the Jedi Order has been nearly eradicated. Survivors are hunted by Darth Vader and his Inquisitors. Cal Kestis, hiding on the remote planet of Bracca, is discovered to be Force-sensitive and must flee from Imperial forces, including the formidable Second Sister. On his flight, he meets Jedi Master Cere Junda. Together, they embark on a mission to complete Cal’s Jedi training and seek to revive the fallen Order.

The game’s first trailer, revealed at EA Play 2018, was met with enthusiasm from both critics and fans, who praised the impressive graphics powered by Unreal Engine 4, the engaging traversal mechanics using the Force, and the dynamic combat system.
