We’ve had truly colossal adventures in a galaxy far, far away. The Star Wars sagas: Battlefront, Jedi Knight, X-Wing or Knights of the Old Republic are some examples of good work with the material created by George Lucas. But without a doubt, what we have always wanted is to be a Jedi of volume and loin
We had quite competent dalliances like Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, but the jewel in the crown goes to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Cal Kestis’s Journey Through Space is a fantastic title from Respawn Entertainment that you can find on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate thanks to EA Play. Plus, you can play both the Xbox One version and the Xbox Series X/S version, which hits glorious 4K resolution.
This time we have to put ourselves in the shoes of a Jedi Padawan who has barely escaped from Order 66 purge after Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. His main goal is to rebuild the jedi orderbut for this Kestis will have to recover his abilities, develop new ones and face the fearsome threat of the Empire.
Obviously, here we will have a lightsaber in our hands to show that no one can resist a good greatsword. We can also make use of the powers of the Force, which can be devastating against enemies. Stormtroopers, droids, war machines, fauna and flora from each planet and the fearsome Inquisitors will be some of the threats to overcome.
Be careful, the fighting is not exactly a joke. Although common enemies can be dispatched quickly, there are others that are hard to crack and will want to break your resistance. Plan each movement to find the weak point and remember that each time you meditate they will reappear in the same position. Come on, what you already know about Dark Souls.
Respawn’s approach to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order it was as simple as offering a cinematic experience, with spectacular sequences in which Cal Kestis narrowly escapes death. Getting on a moving AT-AT or escaping from a moving train while it explodes are our protagonist’s daily bread. On the other hand, it must be taken into account that the scenarios hide secrets, challenges and puzzles.
Ancient forests, windy gorges and jungleThese are some of the biomes that we will have to explore, although not everything will be accessible from the start. When we unlock the necessary powers, we will have to revisit each scenario to get the most out of it.
