Heading towards a stunning Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order 2 exclusive to PS5, Xbox Series and PC? A journalist also mentions the name of the game as well as a release window for this sequel.
While Respawn Entertainment (Apex Legends) could officially announce Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order 2 in just a few days, new rumors are swirling around. As is so often the case, it’s VentureBeat journalist Jeff Grubb who fills us in.
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order 2: A True Next Gen Game?
In his show Giant Bomb, Jeff Grubb points out that the title will only appear on new-gen consoles and PC. And from the information he’s been able to gather from right to left, this sequel wouldn’t arrive until 2023.
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order 2 will only be available in the new generation version, that is to say on PS5, Xbox Series and of course PC. One of the reasons for this is that the game will not be released until 2023. This game will of course not be available until 2023. It’s easier to let go of those million PS4 and Xbox One when you are in 2023 and the stock situation is better where it will be easier to get Xbox Series and PS5. And at the same time you use it to create something that feels “new”.
If EA makes that choice, it will actually allow the publisher to land with a fresher game that wouldn’t suffer from cross-gen status. And the publisher might also want to protect himself from a Battlefield 2042 type shipwreck, with everything that entails the conundrum of development on multiple platforms of different generations.
We remember that the same rumor was heard about the new Need For Speed that it probably intends to drop the PS4 and Xbox One versions.
An upcoming announcement?
What’s in a few days? May 4th, the day we celebrate Star Wars. Earlier this year, Jeff Grubb said Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order 2 could be announced in May. But hey, we could have said that too.
On the other hand, during his last podcast, the journalist indicates that the name of the game would have a different subtitle. In other words, the Fallen Order could end up blowing up. Response in a few days… or not!
