The key element is the colon: the game series is Star Wars Jedi , not Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order . This could be taken as a Jedi anthology of games, where each entry explores a new Jedi. Whether they remain in the Dark Times or not remains to be seen, but hopefully not every entry would be limited to this time—Survivor does indicate this entry could, though. That doesn’t mean Cal’s story is over, it just means more stories can be explo


Darth Vader is, without a doubt, one of the most popular characters in the franchise. Darth Vader’s role in the original trilogy would indubitably leave a huge mark on the franchise—leading to the prequel trilogy about the fall of Anakin Skywalker and the rise of Darth Vader. His appearance everywhere is usually well-received, whether that’s Star Wars Rebels , non-canonically in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed , and so on. The hype for Darth Vader in Obi-Wan Kenobi simply cannot be understa


Following her introduction in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Merrin skyrocketed in popularity as a unique and tragic character. She is a survivor of the Clone Wars, where the Dathomirian Nightsisters were slaughtered by General Grievous. A fallen Jedi named Taron Malicos manipulated her into believing the Jedi were responsible for the death of her people, and once all of this is resolved, she joins Cal and frie


Cal solidified himself as a fan-favorite after a single outing in the game Jedi: Fallen Order . The events of the game take place five years before Kenobi , leaving many possibilities as to his whereabouts. His good nature and optimism could play very well with Obi-Wan, and the two would definitely get along well. Kestis' experience with the Inquisitors could also be helpful for Obi-Wan as they have been confirmed to be appearing in the s


Because of this, Cal’s story is somewhat trapped. Darth Vader has to play a role, but that role is largely predictable. No matter how the encounters go, Vader either eliminates Cal or Cal escapes to no real consequence. The entire dynamic between the two becomes lackluster, but there’s reason to suspect Cal Kestis may not be the protagonist of Star Wars Jedi: Surviv


While Luke Skywalker, Lando Calrissian, and Leia Organa fought Jabba the Hutt’s henchmen (and Jabba himself, in Leia’s case), the many non-combatants aboard the sail barge presumably fled the chaotic battle. While Legends -era material confirms a multitude of survivors, including Rebo, Fett, and Fortuna, canon material tends to be a bit vaguer about who escaped the doomed sail barge. Boba Fett and Bib Fortuna’s survival were key to The Book of Boba Fett’s premise, but for a minor background character like Max Rebo, his survival was confirmed via a brief moment in the pilot epis


He added that the game continues Cal Kestis’ story, but he didn’t know for sure if Cal was the only playable character. The Bespin Bulletin also chimed in to add that it heard there would be a second playable character in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor , with Cal remaining the focus. Should this be true, even if fans should take all of this with a healthy grain of salt, there’s a strong case to make Merrin the second playable charac

According to reporter and insider Jeff Grubb, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 is actually titled Star Wars Jedi Survivor patch notes|https://jedisurvivorhub.com/ Wars Jedi: Survivor. This new entry in the subfranchise, per his sources, will be revealed at Star Wars Celebration and release in early 2023 on PC and current-gen consoles only. Not much else has been said, but the name change is nota


The colon and subtitle change are incredibly reminiscent of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, which cycles through new main characters. Star Wars Jedi could, and maybe should, be just that. The question of what Jedi should replace Cal Kestis is a big one, though. It could be as big as Obi-Wan Kenobi being the main character of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor , one of the Fallen Order characters (Cere? Merrin), a character from other Star Wars media sources, or another brand new character. No matter how it approaches this, if it does, there are plenty of opti


While it may seem utterly ridiculous, the potential of Grogu appearing in the upcoming series should not be totally dismissed. During the attack on the Jedi Temple, Grogu was seemingly saved from the Clones' onslaught, but viewers still do not know who rescued him. Having his rescuer be Obi-Wan could connect The Mandalorian to Obi-Wan Kenobi in a very clever way. It is also unknown where Grogu went after his time as a J


The problem is that Darth Vader is much more of a background character in Jedi: Fallen Order, used to flesh out Cal’s story rather than his own. Indeed, it’s an incredibly similar trope even to Vader’s role in Star Wars Rebels . So it ultimately adds nothing new, and when Cal comes face-to-face with Vader , they know nothing serious can come out of it. Sure, Vader is intimidating, but that cannot carry his role in a story. It’s much more focused on the Inquisitors, which is fine and super interesting, but now that Cal’s on Vader’s radar, there’s no real direction it can go. Cal is not L
