ABOUT THE GAME

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a 2019 action-adventure game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. The story is set in the Star Wars universe, five years after Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. It follows Cal Kestis, a Jedi Padawan who becomes a target of the Galactic Empire and is hunted throughout the galaxy by Imperial Inquisitors while attempting to complete his training, reconcile with his troubled past, and rebuild the fallen Jedi Order. The player can use Cal's lightsaber and Force powers to defeat enemies, including stormtroopers, wild beasts, and bounty hunters. The game adopts a Metroidvania-style level design where new areas are accessed as Cal unlocks skills and abilities. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was directed by Stig Asmussen, who joined Respawn in 2014. The game began development as an original title unrelated to Star Wars, but Electronic Arts felt the action would work well as a Star Wars game, convincing Lucasfilm to authorize and consult on the project. The game's visuals were influenced by Rogue One and Star Wars Rebels, while the combat and levels were inspired by Metroid Prime, Dark Souls, and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The game's voice cast includes Cameron Monaghan as Cal Kestis and Debra Wilson as his mentor Cere Junda. Ben Burtt provided the voice for Cal's companion droid BD-1, while Forest Whitaker reprised his role from Rogue One as Saw Gerrera. The music, composed by Stephen Barton and Gordy Haab, was recorded at Abbey Road Studios with the London Symphony Orchestra and the Bach Choir of London. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was released for the PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One in November 2019, and for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in June 2021. The game received generally favorable reviews from critics, who praised its combat, characters, performance, and world design, though it received criticisms for the technical issues at release.
