There have been a few rumblings over the past few days that the sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order might be gearing up for a reveal in the near future, and it's been suggested that it could release as soon as late 2022.
In a lengthy report from Bespin Bulletin, it was mentioned that this release window is "not locked in and things could easily change," but it seems that EA and Respawn are still hoping to launch the game before the end of the year. However, another source told the outlet that "releasing the title this year [is] possible, but the chances aren’t great."
As for a reveal date, it's expected that we could be officially hearing about the game at Star Wars Celebration in late May, although "an announcement for May the 4th wouldn’t be out of the question, with a full trailer debut at Celebration."
Details are still under wraps about what to expect from the game, but Bespin Bulletin says that it won't be called Fallen Order 2 ("it will be Star Wars Jedi: followed by a new subtitle"), featuring "returning characters from its predecessor, some with larger roles, along with exciting existing Star Wars characters that weren’t featured in the first instalment."
Meanwhile, the much-delayed LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is reportedly on track for an April or May 2022 release, but again this is said to be "not set in stone" and we could potentially be looking at yet another pushback.
Do you think we'll see the Jedi: Fallen Order sequel in 2022? Give us your thoughts below.

I’d prefer the option to create a custom character personally.
Fingers crossed it goes further down a dark souls vibe, with less Uncharted style set pieces.
Finally, lightsabers that actually work this time.
@Wezi Absolutely not... Souls style games should be reserved for Souls games only. That concept is not for everyone and not everyone will appreciate a horrible change like that. The first game was almost perfect the way it was, no need to change much except adding some fun new dynamics and upgrade the visuals if possible and add more side quests and character powers. The lightsabers worked just fine in the last game also...
@OliverOwen ugh, i'm so sick of everything trying to be a Soulslike lol. most games can't pull it off. a lot of very interesting ideas have been ruined by...."oh and hey, we remembered to make the game way more difficult than it is fun, because that's what you guys like, right?"
So basically 2023 then 😉
Nice, Jedi Fallen Order was awesome..
Looks like we will get a whirlwind of delayed games being released in the next 12-18 months - exciting times.
@OliverOwen
Agreed! Currently playing through the game and it's the Uncharted-like platforming and puzzles I love most about it, while the combat is what I struggle most with^^
Some better visuals and a bit more polish I think we have a perfect ''best of both worlds'' situation which is more approachable for people like me who don't really play Souls-like games.
I really enjoyed the first one though felt the combat was flawed and not as deep as they thought. It ended up being a grind. Also slightly annoying that the lightsaber was made to feel like a toothpick when most enemies were basically immune. This led to feeling less like a Jedi in combat, a tough puzzle to solve.
Regardless good game for all the other reasons and I look forward to the sequel.
