Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is one of the most highly anticipated video games coming our way next year, and a new look at some of its characters was revealed during this past weekend's San Diego Comic-Con (via SFFGazette.com) courtesy of a series of action figures being released by Hasbro as part of its popular "Black Series" and "Vintage Collection" ranges. 

The B1 Battle Droid confirms that those soldiers from the prequels and The Clone Wars aren't done yet, though this iteration looks a little more formidable than its predecessors. There's enough articulation to fold the droid down to its prone state, so we're sure Star Wars fans will have fun displaying these.

Another villainous presence can also be seen in the form of a KX Security Droid. We've no doubt many of you will instantly think of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story's K-2SO, but this particular droid looks set to cause major problems for Cal Kestis...for starters, it appears to be wielding a flamethrower!

So, we know about some of the cannon fodder Cal faces in the game, but what about the Jedi himself? Well, we get a closer look at his new costume here, but one of the figures shows him holding a blaster. We're guessing this means the Jedi: Fallen Order sequel will feature gunplay along with the classic lightsaber action; that would certainly shake things up a little, anyway. 

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor picks up five years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Cal must stay one step ahead of the Empire’s constant pursuit as he continues to feel the weight of being one of the last remaining Jedi in the galaxy.

Developed by the veteran team at Respawn Entertainment, Jedi: Survivor will expand upon iconic Star Wars stories, worlds, and characters, and thrilling combat first experienced in Jedi: Fallen Order. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is being built for the current generation of gaming hardware to create a deeper and more expansive Star Wars experience for players worldwide when the game launches in 2023. A recent PSN listing suggested it might arrive as soon as March.

I’ll say it: the B1 battle droids deserved better.

I am a die hard KOTOR fan, and after over a decade of wanting a KOTOR 3 and not having the opportunity of playing The Old Republic since I've always been a console guy, I finally broke down and bought a gaming laptop and connected it to my big screen TV and got a wireless keyboard and mouse.... and holy shit am I one happy Star Wars fan right now!

This is the fix I've been looking for from other Star Wars media. Fallen Order came close but in my heart I'm an MMORPG junky. I've been playing Final Fantasy XIV Online for a little over a year, but SW:TOR is hitting all the right notes for me. I'm only a few days in and already I'm hooked after being a decade late to the party.

I'm still looking forward to Survivor, but they are gonna need to swing for the fences and incorporate KOTOR elements to make me give up screen time from The Old Republic. I've got the graphical settings maxed out and it's amazing! Lol

@UGLYsonic - then I got bad news for you: the KOTOR remake has been put on hold

Truly a great disturbance in the force

@bkmeijer1 - meh, i was never hyped for that to be honest. I love the original 2 as they are. And the fact that they decided to reskin KOTOR rather than put that money and man power towards KOTOR 3 makes me sad.

@UGLYsonic - I was looking forward to it because it was gonna be a remake that was done from the ground up. But yeah, I get wanting a KOTOR 3 too

I like Cal's first look. Really reminds me of Kyle Katarn, in a good way.

As for the poncho, they better ditch ASAP.

Kinda OT but still SW, this guy draws an interesting parallel to the current SW and the superhero trend

I like the scruffle on Cal and the battle droid w the paint job is pretty cool I guess. Can’t wait for this game.
