In less than 24 hours, EA Play will kick off E3 week and the world will finally see gameplay from
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The highly anticipated stroy-driven, single-player game
was officially revealed back in April, but EA Play will be the first time we see actual gameplay.
Ahead of tomorrow's EA Play livestream, developer Respawn Entertainment released a very brief teaser to remind us of the big reveal, which will take place on Saturday, Jun 8 at 9:30 a.m. PT. Admittedly, not much is actually shown in the teaser, just a brief animation of Cal Kestis and his faithful droid BD-1 that will likely lead into gameplay. We're also teased with another wall-scaling sequence that is very reminiscent of the
Uncharted series.
In anticipation of this week's reveal, we also got our first look at the official box art for
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which features Cal Kestis front-and-center, surrounded by supporting characters on one side and the sinsister Second Sister and the Empire's deadly Inquisitors. As we learned earlier this year, Cal Kestis,
voiced by Gotham star Cameron Monaghan, is a young Padawan who somehow survived Order 66.
Following
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order's big show on Saturday, we'll get extensive coverage of the game via
GameInformer. The publication spent two days talking with the developers behind the game to learn about its design and inspirations, and all of that will be shared in the July issue.
After tomorrow's livestream, the entire July cover story will be posted at 10:00 a.m. PT, delivering details, screenshots, and concept art for
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Additional information about the game will be shared throughout the month online and in the magazine, which arrives digitally on Tuesday and should begin shipping for print subscribers in the coming weeks. In the meantime, we've got this gorgeous July cover art which shows Cal Kestis locked in an intense lightsaber battle with the Second Sister.
Cal Kestis—one of the last surviving members of the Jedi Order after the purge of Order 66—is now a Padawan on the run.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order releases November 15, 2019, on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
