Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order sequel is rumoured to be next gen only - Bespin Bulletin

According to a highly trustworthy video game journalist and insider, the sequel to Fallen Order will be exclusive to next generation consoles.

bespinbulletin.com

According to video game journalist and reliable insider, Jeff Grubb, the highly anticipated sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order will only be arriving on current console generation hardware – PlayStation 5 and XBox Series X/S along with PC. This means that the title will not be released on last gen hardware.

Elsewhere in the video, Grubb reiterates that he believes the sequel will be shown at Star Wars Celebration, which is what I reported back in January and have heard consistently ever since. However at this time a panel for Fallen Order or for any video game has not officially been announced for the upcoming event.

Well i was expecting that anyway as the game is surely another couple of years out, if not more.
Good to know though.

 

[ReBurn]

I'm ok with that

I really hope it's not next gen only as I don't want to wait for 8-10 years to play it.

Anyone was expecting anything else? I mean the PS5 and Xbox Series have been released for a year and a half, and Fallen Order II is probably 2023 at the earliest so... yeah I hope they drop the PS4 and One!

 

[FeastYoEyes]

I thought the rumor was it was supposed to drop this year.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

I mean.. news will be otherwise

 

[Deleted member 471617]

Will be very happy if it's current generation only. I'm expecting a November 2022 or early 2023 release.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Enjoyed my time with the first. My only complaint is they need to make the exploration more worthwhile.

 

[EDMIX]

Based on how they are doing Dead Space and Dragon Age 4, I'm not really shocked.

It is supposed to release this year or early 2023.

 

[Wohc]

Not as fun as The Force Unleashed, but still a great game. Will buy it for sure.

 

[Shubh_C63]

EA doesn't really have that much hold on Respawn do they. Nice.

Maybe they should go little darker this time with map design like Starwars tech dome complex kind of fashion. Like Jedi Outcast 2.
I have high hopes.

PS6? Damn Terry

 

[DevilMayFlyForAWhiteGuy]

Good. The first one ran like ass on base PS4/Xbone. Didn’t bother playing it until I got the Series X anyways. Same with Control. Do people really wanna play slideshows at sub-1080p? I can see maybe trying to get a bit more mileage out of a One X or PS4Pro, but the 2013 models need to be Old Yellered this point.

 

[DrumNBassDanTTV]

Good, hope more games follow suit.

 

[PropellerEar]

Hope they fix the wonky looking faces and facial animations.
1st was not a bad game, not that great either

 

[Spaceman292]

Make Titanfall 3 you hacks. No one cares about Star Wars anymore.

 

[M1chl]

Next-gen only? Shit, that's going to take a while then.

 

[kyussman]

I should fucking well hope so!
The endless stream of cross-gen titles has been one of the reasons I've not been very interested much about this gen and haven't gamed since last June......it doesn't really feel like it's actually started properly yet,it feels like some weird limbo state where most games are cross-gen and I can't get a look in at buying a next gen system anyway.That's probably not even true,most games probably aren't cross-gen,but I'm just not excited about gaming right now.
I feel like I'm waiting for that game to come along and kick off next gen properly but I'm not sure what it will be tbh.

 

[lh032]

Will "fun" be next gen as well?

 

[GymWolf]

Praise the force.

Now get rid of the fucking ponchos as a reward for exploration and gimme something useful to find.

[acm2000]

ive been playing Fallen Order on game pass lately, very much a 5/10 game, story etc is fine but the level design is just awful, nothing feels natural at all, incredibly "gamey" since its just a glorified obstacle course.

 

[tusharngf]

you got my attention now

 

[nominedomine]

When does this release? Are people expecting crossgen games in 2024 and beyond? It has to stop at some point.

 

[Ristifer]

 

[Jooxed]

I really enjoyed the first one the little I played of it. But I keep getting to the wind temple where you have to move the ball around and quitting lol

 

[Salz01]

In part it’s good news, in part it’s bad news because when they show this, they probably won’t show anything outside a small logo clip, and probably will release this 2023/ 2024…..

 

[AJUMP23]

Ok cool. I like games.

 

[elliot5]

Series S gonna sell even more with a next gen only star wars game, especially as EA is likely to market with Xbox

 

[Putonahappyface]

Next gen only? Now I'm interested.

 

[retsof624]

Hopefully it isn't filled with jank like the first game. Also, get rid of the damn Dark Souls aspects and add fast traveling.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

Didn't like the first game too much... I didn't even finish it. Still intend to give it one more try eventually, but not right now. Found the gameplay a little bit floaty and didn't like the lack of fast travels since there weren't enough incentives to keep exploring sections of the map after making my way through it once.

 

[EverydayBeast]

For the last two years last gen has been in talks I never loved cross generation games ps4 lost its fast ball and seems to be back peddling its a good legacy console.

 

[RoadHazard]

It had better be. It's still at least a year or two out right? Enough with the cross-gen compromising.

 

[Fbh]

Really enjoyed the first one so I'm glad they can focus on next gen only.
But this is Jeff "random guesses" Grubb so take it as what it is, a guess. Anyone can do this shit: "guys I've heard FF7 remake part 2 will be next gen only and a Ps5 timed exclusive". Omg am I an insider now?

 

[Draugoth]

Surprising, considering everything has been cross-gen so far
