EA has a great deal riding Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The publisher didn’t exactly enjoy producing Star Wars games. Since acquiring the license from Disney in 2013, EA has failed to do anything particularly great with it. In fact, the few games EA has released have experienced a mixed reception (Battlefront and Battlefront II). The company has also canceled several high-profile Star Wars games from studios such as Visceral Games. Disney is not known for its patience. So, if EA wants to keep making Star Wars games, Jedi: Fallen Order has to impress. And impress, it does.

History

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order puts players in the shoes of Cal Kestis. The former Padawan apprentice was forced into hiding following the implementation of Order 66. With the Empire hunting down all the remaining Jedi, Cal had to live off the map. Eventually, he reveals himself to be a Force user when he rescues a friend by using his powers.

Although the character sounds like a classic trope, it allows for an interesting storytelling. The story soon progresses into familiar territory after the introduction. You help create a rebellion group to fight against the Empire and team up with other misfits. Even if you know how the story ends, like in the movie Thief One, the journey still seems worthwhile. A variety of compelling characters, new settings and plot twists ensure that the story is great all the time.
