Star Wars Jedi 2: Everything we know about the Fallen Order sequel

(Pocket-lint) — Respawn Entertainment's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was a slightly unexpected gem when it arrived in late 2019, blending challenging combat and Souls-like mechanics with the vibrant world of Star Wars.

Now, a few years later, we know that a sequel is on the way, albeit without a title yet announced. Here's everything you need to know about Star Wars Jedi 2.

Game Director Stig Asmussen and his team are already at work on the next Star Wars Jedi game, and a new FPS helmed by Game Director Peter Hirschmann is underway. Additionally, Respawn will partner with <a href=«https://twitter.com/bitreactor?ref_src=» https: www.pocket-lint.com rel="" target="_blank">@bitreactor

, to produce a new Star Wars strategy game.

We haven't heard much more about the game from official sources since then, but rumours in May 2022 suggested strongly that the game would have a new subtitle, making Jedi the recurring naming element and ditching «Fallen Order».

The current fore-runner is apparently Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, according to seasoned industry reporter Jeff Grubb, so that might well be the name we're heading toward.

In the same report, Grubb said that he expects Jedi 2 to come out in 2023, and that lines up with the fact that we haven't yet seen a glimpse of gameplay for the game, or even some stills showing off its look and feel.

Fallen Order was a great game, but launched with its fair share of technical and performance problems which led to some slightly ropey moments on older-generation consoles. A subsequent next-gen version for PS5
