Just hours after Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's release date seemingly leaked on Steam, EA has revealed that gameplay for the highly-anticipated title will appear at The Game Awards 2022 later this week.
We also got a brand-new piece of art for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, showing Cal Kestis and his droid BD-1:

Today's leak listed March 15 as the release date for the Fallen Order sequel. This lines up with EA's plans to release a major game before April 2023, as we learned last month. It's possible that the rumored date could be confirmed alongside the gameplay showcase at The Game Awards.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was first announced this past January. EA released a trailer in May that confirmed the title as well as a 2023 release window. The game will follow Cal Kestis some time after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, when he's still on the run from the Empire. The action RPG from Respawn is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
