Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order to be revealed in April

It has been confirmed that Respawn Entertainment, the developer behind Apex Legends, will be hosting a special panel at the annual Star Wars Celebration, which takes place this April in Chicago. Here, the developer will “pull back the curtain” on their highly anticipated Star Wars title, revealing “never-before-released” details about the game. 

At this time it is unknown whether or not gameplay will be shown at the event, though it seems likely. Right now, Jedi: Fallen Order is set to release in fall 2019, though the game has no firm release date. 

The game follows a Jedi Padawan in the aftermath of Order 66, who embarks upon a journey which will explore much of the galaxy. The game takes place between Episodes III and IV, during a time where the Galactic Empire is finding its feet and the few remaining Jedi are being hunted and killed by imperial forces.  Respawn’s special panel will take place on April 13th. 

At the same event, a trailer for the next Star Wars movie is also expected. Star Wars Celebration Chicago will take place between April 11 and 15 at McCormick Place. New announcements for Star Wars: The Old Republic is also expected.
