There’s an awful lot of Star Wars content coming over the next couple months. Between the feature film Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, the Disney+ live-action TV series The Mandalorian, the immense new Galaxy’s Edge attraction Rise of the Resistance, the novel Resistance Reborn, and the exciting conclusions to several long-running comic book series, Star Wars fans aren’t going to have much time for anything else in their lives in November and December. But wait, there’s more!
The highly anticipated video game Star Wars: Jedi – Fallen Order is also coming out next month, and by all indications it looks to be just as engrossing, moving, and gorgeously detailed as its counterparts in other media. Today, Electronic Arts released the final Launch Trailer for Jedi – Fallen Order, and it certainly makes us want to grab a controller and join former Padawan Cal Kestis on his adventure.
