The title of Respawn Entertainment's next Star Wars game after Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has purportedly been revealed ahead of its official announcement. The Star Wars Jedi duology has thrilled players across the galaxy, combining Soulslike combat and exploration with a wholly Star Wars setting that features iconic locations from throughout the series. But with the Star Wars Jedi series coming to a close, developer Respawn is apparently looking in a new direction, and is gearing up to announce its next Star Wars-set title. 131q4j

Star Wars has subtly explained the "sense echoes" seen in Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor, finally explaining a potential plot hole that's been bugging me for the last five years. Respawn's Jedi games are centered around the Order 66 survivor Cal Kestis and his allies, and one reason for their success lies in new lore. Cal can interact with "echoes" as he explored different worlds, a smart way of providing backstory and depth to the galaxy. This appeared to be related to the rare Force power called psychometry, but there's a catch; the idea has become increasingly common since.

Cal Kestis is an undeniably powerful Jedi in the Star Wars galaxy, but what are his powers, and how do they compare to Luke Skywalker’s? Order 66 survivor Cal Kestis was originally introduced in the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Having cut himself off from the Force to protect his identity, Cal was eventually forced to reveal his Jedi powers to save someone from a work accident on the scrap planet Bracca. Cal and his new friends of the Mantis Crew have been chased by Inquisitors and the Empire across the galaxy ever since.

Cal Kestis and Ezra Bridger are pivotal characters in the Star Wars galaxy, but how comparable are their power levels? Ezra Bridger was first introduced in Star Wars Rebels as a young boy living on the streets of Lothal, trying to survive the Empire’s wrath. He was discovered by Order 66 survivor Kanan Jarrus and the rest of the Ghost Crew, and the rest is history. Cal Kestis, introduced in the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, was an Order 66 survivor, too, hiding away on Bracca until he was forced to reveal his true self. Both Jedi fought against the Empire in their own ways.

Could Cal Kestis have a role to play in Star Wars’Mandalorianera? Introduced in the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Cal Kestis is one of a handful of Jedi to have survived Order 66. After having crash-landed on the planet Bracca following the death of his Jedi Master, the young Cal Kestis cut himself off from the Force, hidden away in plain sight and working as a scrapper until an accident forced him to reveal his true self. Since then, alongside the Mantis crew, Cal has become an integral soldier in the fight against the Empire.

Once someone has beaten the main story campaign of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, the fun doesn't have to end, as the adventure can then be played fresh with its version of New Game Plus, called New Journey +. This mode gives more of a challenge for Cal and fun ways to experience the game differently with new perks, unlocks, and possibilities. The first time anyone plays through a game this detailed and large, it is natural that a lot of content could easily be missed out on, so having these incentives to go back and enjoy it again can be a good way to see more of the lore and story that might have ed players by originally.

Star Wars’ Kanan Jarrus and Cal Kestis have a lot in common, but which Jedi is more powerful overall? Kanan Jarrus was originally introduced in the animated series Star Wars Rebels as a Jedi in hiding and an integral member of the Ghost Crew. The Ghost Crew was part of the fledgling Rebel Alliance, helping out wherever they were needed while the Rebel cells were scattered all across the galaxy. Despite the trauma of surviving Order 66, Kanan eventually revealed his status as a Jedi to the galaxy, and the rest is history.

Fans of the incredibly successful Star Wars: Jedi franchise had some bittersweet news this month, with the highly-anticipated third title being officially announced as the last in the series. While many fans will be sad to say goodbye to the titular protagonist, the final game is bound to be a well-deserved sendoff to this iconic Star Wars character. Picking up after the events of Jedi Survivor, there have already been some hints as to where the franchise is headed based on where it falls in the Star Wars timeline.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor launched on last-gen hardware to mixed results, with issues like poor pop-in and low framerates, especially during cutscenes, plaguing the port. While dedicated Star Wars fans with older hardware will finally get a chance to play it, the PS4 and Xbox One port does bring into question the necessity of still catering to a console generation that started all the way back in 2013. This isn't the first time a current-gen game has been ported to last-gen hardware, but it does feel like the straw that broke the camel's back.

There are many differences and similarities between Star Wars Outlaws and the Star Wars Jedi series, but for the most part, the two games sit comfortably in their own niches, offering vastly different experiences but still remaining within the same vast interconnected universe. Much like the shows and films, they offer different experiences in of tone and characters. However, there is one Star Wars Jedi story detail that Outlaws would really benefit from, but unfortunately, it probably won't be able to replicate because of a fundamental issue.
