The director of both Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and this year’s Jedi: Survivor is departing EA after close to a decade at developers Respawn.
]]>I'm not a very big enjoyer of horror games. On the very rare occasion that I do boot up a horror game, a chemical change seems to occur in my body. The part of my brain responsible for going "holy mother of hell get me away from this scary thing" is dampened. I expect to be scared, and therefore I'm more resilient to said scariness. I might just not be very good at getting into the horror games mindset. My brain is too busy battening down all the hatches and readying the engines of war against the oncoming spookies and ghosties.
The times I've been most scared playing a game are when I don't expect to be scared. And what better way to lull myself into a false sense of security this Halloween than to play an otherwise not-so-scary game, with just one particularly horror-esque moment?
]]>The sequel to EA and Respawn’s intergalactic soulslike Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order could be called Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. At least, that’s according to GamesBeat's Jeff Grubb, who told a commenter that they’d correctly guessed the game’s name in the chat on his Giant Bomb show, Grubbsnax.
]]>Although announcing three games at once feels a bit much, I'm really happy about the Respawn feat. Star Wars news. Respawn Entertainment always felt like one of those development studios that should have been shut down by a bigger studio circa 2015 because the people loved Titanfall but it wasn't, you know, Call Of Duty or anything. I turned my back for what seemed like but a moment, and suddenly Apex Legends exists and Respawn are one of the key players under EA, growing stronger from within. One day we'll be watching Andrew Wilson at an E3 showcase and realise it's actually Vince Zampella's eyes looking out at us. Everyone coming on stage to present is just Vince Zampella doing a voice and wearing a different baseball cap.
Point is, I'm mostly just pleased that Respawn are still around to make games featuring robots that surprise and delight us. And if they're not allowed to do Titanfall 3, Star Wars is at least a rich field to till said robots. Lousy with robots, is Star Wars. But honestly, if anyone is going to make Star Wars games (apart from BioWare, who have spent recent years making Dragon Age 4 and / or collapsing like a magnificent neutron star) then I'd root for Respawn. They may not make the Star Wars games you think you want, but they'll make the ones you need right now.
]]>Three new Star Wars games are in development at EA. Respawn are leading the projects, working on "the next chapter" in the Star Wars Jedi story, an "all-new first-person shooter", and partnering with new studio Bit Reactor on a "new Star Wars strategy game."
]]>Disney have rebranded the Lucasfilm video games division, this time sending the Star Wars lords back to a name from 1986: Lucasfilm Games. That's the brand under which they developed games including The Secret Of Monkey Island and Loom. This seemingly is only a rebranding, mind, and they're not rebuilding the development studio. Because Disney run time on a loop, presumably they'll rebrand to LucasArts in 2025, essentially close it down in 2048, then return to Lucasfilm Games in 2056.
]]>Get your speedrunning shoes on and prepare your glitches: Awesome Games Done Quick has arrived for its yearly speedrunning extravaganza. As with previous years, the charity event is raising money for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. It's been live since yesterday evening and runs until this Sunday, and there are already some fab runs in the likes of Mirror's Edge and Dragon Age: Origins to catch up on.
]]>The Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order skill tree offers you and Cal a plethora of different opportunities to focus your abilities to suit your particular Jedi playstyle. But not all skills are created equal, with certain ones requiring far more commitment and more skill points than others to obtain.
Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order skill tree guide will walk you through every skill in each of the three branches, as well as how to expand the skills available to you, and some of the best skills to help keep you alive throughout the game's punishing campaign.
]]>What's a Jedi without their Force Powers? This is one of the many questions that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order asks, placing you in the shoes of Jedi Cal Kestis, whose past has left his connection with the Force damaged. As you progress through the game's impressive and extensive campaign, you'll begin to heal Cal's connection with the Force and unlock more and more ways to use it.
Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Force Powers guide will show you the ropes in this regard, with in-depth explanations of exactly how to unlock the Wall Run, Force Push, Force Pull, and Double Jump Force abilities in the game.
]]>Lightsaber colors were always going to be a hot topic in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. And for those who have only just started playing, you may initially be disappointed at the limited starting choice of green or blue lightsaber colors (or orange if you pre-ordered the game).
But fear not, young padawan! Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order lightsaber colors guide will walk you through not only how to unlock all the different lightsaber colors on offer, but also where to find the double bladed lightsaber and how to dual wield lightsabers later on in the campaign!
]]>My journey playing through Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order for guides on RPS was a very strange one. I played for ten hours on the first day, and came away exhausted and with only negative things to say about it. The combat was like Sekiro but worse, the cutscenes were lengthy and unskippable, the frame rate was inconsistent, and the puzzle sections were just about the last thing I wanted to encounter in a Star Wars game.
I found myself longing to get to the end of the game so I could finish writing my guides and stop playing. But instead, the moment I finished the campaign I started again on the highest difficulty. And then again. And again. Over the course of its campaign, the game had taken a janky, unstable lightsaber to my heart and carved a Fallen Order-shaped hole in me with neither my knowledge nor my consent. Now, I have to concentrate to notice all those negative points that previously I was unable to look beyond.
]]>With very rare exceptions, EA have long been shy about bringing their games to Steam. But over the last year or so, the two massive firms have slowly shown signs of making amends. It started with last year's Jedi: Fallen Order, and this week saw the fruits of that partnership properly come to pass as a ton of EA games, old and new, made their way over to the house of Valve - alongside some hefty discounts and hints at a Steam debut for subscription service EA Access.
]]>May the 4th is not yet over so there's still some Star Wars Day 4th to be with you. EA have announced and released a free update to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order that focuses on the veteran force users among us. The new update brings a new game plus mode for those that have finished the campaign and special NG+ challenge mode for fighting against waves of enemies.
]]>Oh look, it's Star Wars Day and to celebrate of course an entire galaxy of Star Wars games are on sale. There are discounts to be had on all yer old favorites from back in the day and some of the newer laser sword adventures of the decade as well.
]]>If you're anything like me, you absolutely hate environmental puzzle sections in adventure games - and the Tomb of Eilram in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is no exception. This infernal tomb has you manipulating air vents and using your newfound Force Push to force giant balls into the right sockets in order to escape... because puzzles. God, I hate puzzles. But the good news for you is that our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Tomb of Eilram walkthrough will walk you through how to complete and escape this place with ease.
]]>The Tomb of Miktrull is one of my least favourite sections of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Mainly because I loath puzzles in these sorts of games. And if you're here, I might wager I'm not alone in this regard. The good news is that this here Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Tomb of Miktrull walkthrough will show you the fastest way to complete this Tomb, raise the Spire of Miktrull, and escape with your sanity intact.
]]>One of the many questions that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order raises throughout its lengthy campaign is this: what's a droid without his Scomp Link? This Scomp Link guide will show you how to repair your adorable droid BD-1's damaged Scomp Link, so that he can open all sorts of locked and hidden areas for you in return.
]]>Ain't technology a beaut'? You press one wrong button and suddenly things just leak all over the floor—names and pictures and prices and dates mostly. This leak, courtesy of a Twitter bot that tracks updates and releases added to the PlayStation Network, has two of the four. It's a (possible) name and an image for a new Star Wars game that we're probably not meant to know about yet.
]]>The Second Sister, as you've probably guessed, crops up throughout the campaign of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order after she first appears in the opening mission on Bracca. You held her off before with help from your ol' pal Cere, but now it's just you and her (and BD-1, of course), and you'll need to be prepared. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Second Sister boss fight guide will walk you through how to tangle with this powerful and dangerous foe, and live to fight her another day.
]]>Knowing all of the Stim locations in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is essential for getting through Cal's lengthy journey with as few deaths as possible. While you start the game with just the two health-bestowing Stim Canisters to use between Save Points, there are 8 different Stim Canister upgrades scattered throughout the campaign - and our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Stim locations guide will walk you through how to get your hands on every single one.
]]>Let's cut to the chase. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is great. And you want to be great at it. Well, as luck would have it, below we've laid out our 8 top Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order tips for players of all skill levels, and we've also linked to all other articles in our ever-growing Jedi: Fallen Order guide series. Whether you're stuck on a particular boss battle, or wondering how to unlock the double-bladed lightsaber, or what the hell a Scomp Link is: we've got you covered.
]]>On Wednesday, EA raised the prices for a large portion of their game catalog on Steam. The increases seem to have affected most regional currencies outside the United States. Price changes are inconsistent, with some regions seeing small increases and others being slapped with 300% price hikes on certain games.
]]>Vince Zampella, the head of Titanfall and Apex Legends studio Respawn Entertainment, is taking over Dice LA to launch the studio's very own game for the first time.
"But Dice have released loads of games!" I hear you cry, and yes they have, but those releases have mostly come from the main studio, Dice Stockholm, while the LA developers have acted as more of a support studio, and haven't actually released a game by themselves since the studio was taken over by EA.
]]>2019 was a great year for PC games - aren't they all? - but you might not yet know what the very best PC games of 2019 were. Let us help you.
]]>Writing guides about a game usually means playing a rather disgusting number of hours of said game every day, until the sight of it compels you to dry-heave over a keyboard whose WASD keys have long since worn away. I remember, for example, a point where I realised that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order had been out for 100 hours, and I'd spent 60 of those hours playing it. That was taking it a bit far even for me.
I was fully expecting the dry-heaves to begin at any moment. But they never came. I continued to slide down the slides, to climb up the climbs, to beat up the local fauna with the power of ancient religion on my side. And somehow, despite all the bugs and flaws the game was throwing at me, I remained steadfast in my enjoyment of it. How did I do it? Well, I'd like to explore that with you awhile, if that's alright.
]]>The Star War is the only thing I have been playing outside of work for weeks now. I am becoming intimately familiar with its workings: the push and pull combat, and also of the Force Push and Force Pull powers. It is a brilliant game that I love, but that I also find full of contradictions. Here are my five best and worst things about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The twist is that each thing is both a best AND a worst! Haha!
]]>Star Wars is, for me, first and foremost a video game franchise. I know there are films, I’ve seen some of them (seven of the eleven by my count), but I’m far more likely to tell you that A New Hope took place between the events of Jedi: Fallen Order and Dark Forces II than the other way around. When I see that title fade away, and the yellow letters begin to scroll, I have that warm glowy feeling of familiarity and happy memories, but they’re of the nefarious deeds of Darth Malek or the ripping yarns of Kyle Katarn, rather than Luke and his naughty daddy. (Sorry, spoilers.)
It is a peculiar relationship I’ll concede, where two of my all-time favourite games have “Star Wars” in their titles (Knights Of The Old Republic, Dark Forces), but the films wouldn’t even be thought of when making my movie list.
When I boot up the backwardly named Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, there’s immediately a hefty dose of nostalgia. Meanie old droid 8T88, mentions of “Dark Jedi” (as opposed to Sith?), Kyle Katarn’s beard, it’s all a warm bath of teenage years. But, I was wondering, is it actually as good as I remember?
]]>Let's not pretend that Star Wars isn't good. Answer me this: if Star Wars isn't good, how come they got away with having BB-8 branded oranges?? Less reliably good are the official Star Wars video games. Despite throwing out some absolute bangers in the LucasArts days, or stone cold classics like Knights Of The Old Republic giving us big Force energy, the more recent quality has been varied. One could even say scandalous.
But what is this? A new single player Star Wars game? Lightsaber battles where you have to block, parry, and break your opponents guard? Levels that have an almost roguelike approach? Shorcuts and hidden secrets? And - gasp - a small robit friend? Jedi: Fallen Order, I think you and I can talk.
]]>Grandmaster difficulty in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order offers players the greatest amount of challenge in an already punishing game. Enemies hit harder, parry windows are smaller, and you'll need to know the game intimately in order to complete the game without dying an inordinate number of times along the way. Luckily, I do know the game intimately, and I've put together the below Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Grandmaster guide to help those who are struggling to beat the game on this hardest difficulty level.
]]>The Bounty Hunters of the Haxion Brood make for some of the most formidable and dangerous boss encounters in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Armed with all sorts of dangerous gear, and almost always facing you in teams of two, these late-game enemies will test you to your limits on the higher difficulty levels. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Bounty Hunters guide will walk you through where you can find these randomly spawning boss encounters, and how to beat each of the three types of Haxion Brood enemies you will come across during your ventures.
]]>The myriad Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order bosses and minibosses are the moments where the game truly shines. Like all games of this ilk, the elegant combat system starts to break down when fighting multiple enemies at once, but with one-on-one boss fights you get to truly live the experience of being a Jedi. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order bosses guide will walk you through every single boss in the game, with practical tips and walkthroughs for defeating each one.
]]>Taron Malicos is my pick for the most enjoyable boss fight in all of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and it's not just because I managed to defeat him extremely cleanly on just my second attempt at Jedi Master difficulty. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Malicos boss fight guide will walk you through this dangerous dual-wielding former-Jedi's many attacks, and how to gain the upper hand in this epic duel of the fates.
]]>The powerful Nydak Alpha is probably the third-most dangerous foe you'll encounter in the treacherous and hostile ruins of Dathomir in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. And that's pretty damn high up the pecking order, believe you me. The King of Nydaks must be handled with extreme caution, lest he batter you into oblivion with his powerful clawed arms. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Nydak Alpha boss fight guide will walk you through how to defeat this dangerous foe.
]]>The "winged daemon of the canyon", the titanic Gorgara, gives players one of the most titanic boss fights in all of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Its immense size and strength means if you slip up even slightly, it could spell the end for you - but our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Gorgara boss fight guide will ensure you're equal to the task of besting this powerful predator.
]]>The Ninth Sister is one of the key antagonists in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and after an unfortunate encounter in the first mission, we all know that we're going to have to come up against her later on in the campaign. This boss fight is trickier than any you'll have come across so far, and requires careful footwork and a good understanding of this powerful foe. Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Ninth Sister boss fight guide will walk you through cutting down this beast of an Inquisitor even on the highest difficulties.
]]>The Rabid Jotaz is one of the earliest optional boss fights you can come across in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and as a veteran of Sekiro and various Soulslikes, I can say that this guy is no joke. But follow our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Rabid Jotaz boss fight guide and you'll see that defeating this boss is not as insurmountable a task as you might first have thought.
]]>Combat in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order can be a little tricky to get to grips with, particularly if you're not coming from games of a similar ilk (Sekiro, anyone?). While you might be expecting to live out your Jedi power fantasy in this game, in reality even a Stormtrooper can end your journey in an instant if you're not careful.
Our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order combat guide is a primer for all those struggling to internalise all the different aspects of this punishing combat system. We'll go over Force Powers and lightsaber moves, blockable and unblockable attacks, difficulty levels, enemies, bosses, and much more.
]]>The Albino Wyyyschokk is an arachnophobe's worst nightmare in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Enormous, white, and packed with aggressive unblockable moves, you'd best check out this here Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Albino Wyyyschokk boss fight guide if you want to see exactly how best to defeat this monstrous creature once and for all.
]]>Oggdo Bogdo appears to be giving a lot of new Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order players quite a bit of trouble. As the first true boss that Cal can come across during his journey, Oggdo Bogdo quickly ramps up the difficulty with some devastating lunge and tongue attacks. But stick by our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Oggdo Bogdo boss fight guide, and you'll walk away without even a scratch.
]]>Many of us don't want much thought from our warring among the stars. We merely want to spend a few days, brainlessly force-pushing stormtroopers into a bottomless pit. We want to be infantilsed and reassured by a cosy multi-million-dollar franchise. We want a kindly alien dockworker called Prouf to rock us to sleep in his big strong arms, and gurgle amusing words as shiny space trains rocket by. If that is you, star baby, seeking to clamber back into the Lucaswomb, then rest assured, Jedi: Fallen Order is the comforting amniotic sac of space drivel you're after. It's also basically "laser sword Sekiro" with four difficulty settings.
]]>The first patch for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order after its launch on Friday arrived last night and it's not a huge one but it is handy. Probably most notable is a fix for a problem that was making the game run and load slowly for some, though a fix for bug that made dynamic resolution settings not stick will be welcome for folks who use that. Though perhaps it's a fool who trusts that a seemingly harmless Star Wars update hasn't covertly rewritten plot points. For all I know, young Cal might now sometimes say "maclunkey" before zapstabbing.
]]>Trilla Suduri is, for all intents and purposes, the "big bad" boss of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Smart, agile, and more powerful every time you face her, you'll need to maximise your chances of success if you want to best her and complete Cal's story. And what better place to start than our Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Trilla boss fight guide, which will walk you through both our first and our far more difficult second encounter with this dangerous foe towards the very end of the campaign.
]]>This is, really and truly, the last ever Steam Charts.
Which, I realise, is something I've said before. More than once. But this time it's really true!
Erk, I'm not really sure how to convince anyone of this. I'm the boy who cried last ever Steam Charts.
]]>Dust off that beige robe, reader. Jedi: Fallen Order came out overnight, and you don't need to pop off to a galaxy far, far away to jump in. The folks behind bangers like Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends have put together the first proper singleplayer Star Wars romp in years, letting you blast fascists through a beautifully complex star system as a sword-slinging, force-flinging slice of white bread. At least the robot's cute, eh?
]]>Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is out today, letting you follow in the roguish bootprints of young force punter Cal Kestis, played here by Archie of Archie comics. In celebration of his boyish padawan appearance, and the way he uses a deadly weapon like you’d use a torch app with dodgy permissions to find your keys, let’s make a list. A list of the least qualified Jedi (and Sith) in PC games.
]]>Last year was a good year for Star Wars games, since we got the release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and there are more Star Wars game adventures to come, so it seems like a good time to check in on the best Star Wars games on PC. 2024 hasn't started off quite so well, with EA cancelling the Star Wars FPS game Respawn were working on. But there's a new Jedi game in the works there, Star Wars Outlaws at Ubisoft, and the mysterious Star Wars Eclipse at Quantic Dream. That's a lot of Star Wars still coming down the laser cannon, so you'd better get some practise with the Force in now. There are, of course, a lot of Star Wars games, from Lego adventures to podracing, amnesiac Sith and everything in between - which is why our list of the best Star Wars games is so useful. Whatever kind of Star Wars story you're after, you'll find something to enjoy on our list of the 10 best, right here, right now.
]]>Origin Access subscribers will not get to play Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order before launch but will receive cosmetic trinkets instead. Early access to new games is one of the marquee features of EA's service, with a ten-hour trial usually available for Basic subscribers and the full game for Premier members. EA claim they're changing the usual deal for this one because of a terrible fear of spoilers, and so are offering skins for your robopal and spaceship instead. Hmm. Weird. Suspicious. But while I can't imagine story spoilers meaning a damn in Star Wars these days, I do think the spectacle of Star Wars is best as a surprise.
]]>The results are in! The links between the longevity of Steam Charts and the decreases in violent crime, the improvement of sanitary water supplies, and sudden global drops in serious health issues, are no coincidence at all!
To quote from the paper recently published in Nature, "Causal links have been shown connecting Rock Paper Shotgun's Steam Charts articles to a remarkably number of positive worldwide trends, with strong suggestion that a global dependence on the column has been established, such that its weekly appearance is vital to humanity."
]]>Electronic Arts are returning to Steam after a long hiatus. The first game to come over to the dark side is, appropriately enough, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on November 15. It'll be followed by the EA big guns of FIFA 20, Battlefield V, and more next year. And they're bringing their subscription service, EA Origin Access, which is a real surprise.
]]>I want to explore. Like, everywhere. I didn’t expect that to be the main takeaway of my Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order hands-on preview, but here we are: amongst the windswept vistas of Zeffo, or careening down its ice caves, or clambering around the crumbling red stone of a temple on Dathomir. The team behind Titanfall 2 have built some more beautiful worlds for me to jump around, where I don’t simply hop from A - B.
You won't catch developers Respawn Entertainment doing this, but I’m going to compare their upcoming space magic franchise action-adventure game to Dark Souls. A pepped up version of the From Software formula. I’ll move on pretty quick, promise.
]]>EA published the minimum and recommended PC requirements for Respawn's upcoming Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order souls'em-up over on Origin earlier today, and for the most part it's all pretty plain sailing. All except the recommended RAM requirement, which comes in at a whopping 32GB. Is this some kind of Jedi mind trick?
Update 09/10/19: Turns out, yes, it was a Jedi mind trick after all, as the recommended specs have now been updated to just 16GB of RAM. Phew!
]]>While Lucasfilm may object to wanton limb-chopping, they can't stop Respawn from giving us a big slice of the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order video today. A little under half an hour long (double shown publicly at E3), we get to see a little Uncharted-ish clambering across an AT-AT walker, some mech combat, and a lot of lightsaber stuff. We also get some extended dialogue, a peek at the Metroid Prime-ish automap system, and a look at the kinds of upgrades you'll be able bolt onto the hero's adorable little robo-buddy. Give it a gander below.
]]>Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order didn't make much of a first impression when it was shown off at E3 this year, but we at least now know a bit more about what kind of game it is, as well as the release date. Granted they're important things to know, and we now have a better idea of what to expect in November.
]]>Dismemberment. We've all done it, but Lucasfilm have reportedly forbade the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order developers from letting players chop off limbs too jediciously. In the trailers, gameplay footage and behind closed doors demo we've seen so far, all limbs have remained attached. The internet is aghast, even though developers Respawn Entertainment have stated that limb removal will be reserved for critical plot moments.
]]>We've been drowned by E3 2019 this past week, but maybe you only waded into the river of game reveals and new trailers up to your ankles. If you didn't get your hair wet, there might be some gems among the flotsam and jetsam that you missed. That's what this post is for: we've rounded up our picks for the best games of E3, based on our own impressions of either seeing the games behind closed doors at the show, or of watching the videos from the comfort of our homes.
]]>Listen, I’ll level with you, I am struggling this year. My hype train cannot currently build up steam. If I were to place myself on Matt and Brendan’s Cheerer-to-Jeerer E3 corporate Kinsey scale of awfulness, I am currently at a “1”: predominantly jeer, only incidentally cheer. Think the “What a piece of work is man?” monologue from Hamlet, but if it were about games instead of a searingly beautiful description of depression.
Like Hamlet, there are some things that I will still get cautiously enthused about, though unlike Hamlet mine do not generally involve avunculicide. Apparently, what excites me most these days is a jedi holding up his lightsaber like a torch.
]]>Trying to keep up with E3 2019 is a fool's errand, and the foaming river of content streaming down the internet's face doesn't always make it easier. So here's a round-up of every news story from the show we think matters to you, with links to our full stories (and bantful liveblogs) where relevant. We'll be updating this hourly, so keep coming back.
]]>The Jedi from Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is bland, but he has a cute robo-backpack and cuts up Stormtroopers real good. Those are my three main takeaways from my 25 minute peek at Respawn Entertainment's upcoming action RPG.
He's a nasty one, that Cal Kestis.
]]>It seems Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order understands that the best part of Star Wars is wee robots making silly noises, going by the thirteen-minute gameplay vid Electronic Arts just blasted out at their E3 event. We play some dull lad who looks like a photofit of a minor member of the English royal family, which I suppose is to be expected, but our Jedi-in-training also has a diddy droid pal who rides on his back and has wobbly chicken legs and a View-Master for a head and makes good beeps. I must know more about this robot. If you'd rather know more about wizard powers and laserswords and parkour, well, watch the video.
]]>Brendan: We are in Los Angeles, Matt! And we are doing a fun new thing. We're going to liveblog the heck out of these press conferences, but with a twist. One of us can only be enthusiastic, positive and cheery, no matter what comes up. And the other can only be snarky, grumpy and critical. Who would you like to be today? The cheerer or the jeerer? Choose carefully: EA is our first conference.
Matt: I am ready to delight in the wonders of a new Apex Legends map. Let’s go!
]]>E3 is getting started this weekend, otherwise known as the Encredible Electricity Experience, or sometimes simply “Hellweek”. It’s a very busy and exciting time to be a videogame liker, but you might need some help. Allow the RPS podcast, the Electronic Wireless Show, to be your digital sherpa through this storm of fictional bullets and lightsabers. Let’s talk about what we’re looking forward to seeing, and the games that probably won’t appear (but that we wish would).
]]>Respawn Entertainment developers took to the stage at the Star Wars Celebration in Chicago today to unveil Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. It is (as they announced to great cheers) a singleplayer, story-driven game that follows a Jedi hiding from the Empire after the events of Episode III and the execution of Order 66. Here's a release trailer introducing the Padawan-in-hiding, Cal Kestis. He's not very good flying under the radar, so luckily he'll have Force powers and lightsaber combat to help him out of sticky situations.
]]>Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the upcoming Star Wars game by Titanfall and Apex Legends studio Respawn Entertainment, will be a little less shrouded in mystery this April. In this official blog post, they announce that EA will be showcasing the game on Saturday, April 13th at the Star Wars Celebration convention in Chicago. If you've been off in a galaxy far, far away, Fallen Order is set shortly after the prequel trilogy, and tells the story of a young Padawan who somehow survived Order 66, the backstabbilicious Jedi purge carried out by the Emperor's loyal clone army.
]]>Electronic Arts have said that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, the new boldly go 'em up from Titanfall developers Respawn Entertainment, should launch in autumn 2019. We still don't know much of anything about the game, but there's a wee update for you from EA's latest earnings conference call for investors. They also mentioned that a new Need For Speed Game is in the works, which is no surprise, plus another Plants vs. Zombies, which is a little more surprising. Plus that mysterious new Titanfall... thing.
]]>That mysterious boldly-going game from Titanfall developers Respawn Entertainment is named Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, EA confirmed during their E3 pressblast today, and it'll launch next year. Respawn CEO Vince Zampella didn't have much to say about the game, beyond the obvious that we'll get to play as a Jedi and swing a glowstick as we delve into the past, somewhere between Episodes 3 and 4.
