We already got word that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was getting a free next-gen upgrade this Summer, but now we may know when that may be.
As spotted by Xbox Era, certain retailers in Brazil have listed the next-gen version with a release date of June 26. Other retailers in Denmark and Germany also have the game up for pre-order with a release date of June 11.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition was recently released by EA, and the physical edition launched several days later in Brazil compared to other countries. So it could be that the June 11 date is indicative of what the worldwide release for Jedi: Fallen Order could be. If the June date is correct, we expect to hear something within the next week or so.
While a next-gen patch for the game released earlier this year, the native version will "bring a number of technical improvements". No word has arrived on what those improvements will be, but we can probably expect increased resolution and frame rates across the board. While the game allowed for 60FPS originally, it took a substantial hit on the resolution - something the next-gen systems could easily combat.
Are you looking forward to the next-gen version of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order? Drop us a comment and let us know.

This game has some of the best animations with realistic motion blur.
Will this be a free upgrade for existing owners or a need to buy over again thing? Edit. Just read the free bit. Awesome.
Very much looking forward to this, I played the game through chapter 1 on Bogano, the frame rate at full res was BRUTAL with terrible frame pacing in that outdoor area, it was giving me a headache, so I dropped to the ugly 60fps. And the Dark Souls-like checkpoint system combined with abysmal loading times made failure a slog. I'm hoping this does a lot to fix that.
I already thought this had a next-gen update, I beat it last month and it played really well on the Series X, maybe it was just utilizing the extra power. Its not the greatest Souls like but it has the best story I've seen in years outside of the Mandalorian.
@CrazyJF At 4k the game is absolutely gorgeous. On "performance" (almost 60fps) mode, it looks a lot uglier, drops the res to 1080p and definitely loses some lighting and shader effects. But I just couldn't take the somewhat juttery framerate in 4k mode in the outdoor Bogano parts so I was willing to let it go in ugly mode. With luck, this patch lets us eat our cake and have it too.
But yeah, Bracca I thought "oh, cool, it's Uncharted in space". Then got to Bogano and realized it was Dark Souls in space. It seems like it wants to be different games in different places. Not sure I've gotten to the "Sonic" parts. Do I want to know?
@CrazyJF That actually sounds kind of cool..... Unlike most sonic games....
