Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Interview Sheds Light on Game’s Dark Origins
In an interview with STACK, Respawn Entertainment’s narrative lead, Aaron Contreras provided further details about the backstory behind Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, gameplay info, and more. Why Fallen Order is Set Shortly After Revenge of the Sith When asked about the timeline of the game, Contreras stated that the Respawn team decided to roll with a period just a few years past Revenge of the Sith because they found it to be one of the most intriguing ages in the Star Wars franchise. Aaron went on to say that due to the Empire having immense power throughout the galaxy during this time and Order 66 being in place, this period paved the way for a story based on an emerging hero – one that has to stay off the Empire’s radar and fighting to flee persecution. Why Force Players to Utilize a Specific Character? Aaron also shed a little…

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – Can We Trust EA?
Normally speaking, when there’s a brand new Star Wars game on the horizon, it’s a time of great excitement for all of us. As much as we all love (and will continue to love) Star Wars: The Old Republic, it never hurts to have another game or two to play. As we already know, the final few months of this year will bring us Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. They’ll also bring us the Star Wars: the Rise of Skywalker movie, which is just as exciting, but we focus on games on this website. We’ll leave the movie hype to somebody else! Everything we’ve seen about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order looks fantastic. The graphics look great. The promises we’ve been made about gameplay sound outstanding. We have every reason to be placing pre-orders already – but why are so many of us reluctant to do so? The answer might…
Jedi Fallen Order: Weekly Recap
I promised to bring you all the news and updates I could find about the new Star Wars game, Jedi: Fallen Order. This past week does not disappoint because there are some goodies to share your way. First, let’s talk about the protagonist. Fallen Order is bringing us Cal Kestis, played my Cameron Monaghan. If you were expecting a female lead, it’s not happening in this one. Reports say that’s actually because of Rey. Apparently, the game’s director Stig Asmussen says Rey is directly the reason they didn’t use a female for the lead role. “We talked about different gender,” Asmussen told Game Informer on its video podcast. “We arrived where we were because at the time, Rey was the thing for Star Wars, and so it made a lot more sense for us to have a male protagonist.” Not sure it makes “a lot more sense” to me. I mean, is…
Jedi: Fallen Order Recap Week of 6/26
Is Jedi: Fallen Order the Star Wars game we have all been waiting for? We certainly hope so. It’s definitely the game to follow on the Star Wars scene. We’ve written at length about Star Wars games here – past, present, and future – and one thing I personally hate is all the great Star Wars games that have been canceled over the years. It’s really refreshing to see this one staying alive and actually available to pre-order now. AND it looks like it’s going to be a good game. That’s definitely something to get excited about. So, what new news do we have about Fallen Order so far this week? Well, for one, it’s making waves as one of the most pre-ordered games from E3 (no surprise there, honestly). GameStop announced the top 10 most pre-ordered video games from E3 and Jedi: Fallen Order made #7 on that list. Another reason we…
How can EA ensure Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a success?
When video games based on movies get announced, they are often not greeted with high expectations from fans. This has been the case for many years, and there doesn’t appear to be any sign that things are changing, but there’s always been at least one exception. Star Wars video games have been on both sides of this debate, with titles like KOTOR, Battlefront and The Old Republic receiving critical acclaim, while others have ranged from mediocrity to outright awful. The next big title to hit the market will be Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which was announced at E3 in 2018 and will be released towards the end of 2019. So, how can EA ensure that the latest franchise offering is a complete success? Here are some of our top suggestions that could help Fallen Order prevail and meet the expectations of those already waiting for it. Limit the bugs First impressions count for…

We finally saw the release of the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Official Gameplay Demo – EA PLAY 2019 which was very excited (but also left us with a lot more questions. Gizmodo did a story on how the Star Wars wipe we saw in Jedi: Fallen Order was apparently a nightmare to create. Respawn’s lead technical designer, Brandon Kelch, said: “The wipe in film is so easy—well, I don’t know if it’s easy, but in film you just take two different pictures and you have them both and you just wipe…

Are you as excited as we are for Jedi Fallen Order? I am super pumped for the new game and we’ve made it a personal mission to try to keep you updated on any and all new info that comes out about it.

But there’s a different team altogether inside Respawn who is handling this project and it’s led by God of War 3 Game Director Stig Asmussen. Asmussen recently did an interview with PlayStation Official Magazine (June 2019, issue 162) where he revealed that the team is buzzing with energy and that he believes the game is already fun to play. He says: To say we’re a mash-up crew is an understatement, but everybody has a really high pedigree….
