As Star Wars Day approaches on May 4th, rumors are intensely circulating online about a potential announcement for a new installment in the beloved game series. It’s speculated that Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment are preparing to unveil Star Wars Jedi 3.
The development of a sequel has long been an open secret; actor Cameron Monaghan, who voices protagonist Cal Kestis, previously confirmed that the game was in production. The third entry is expected to serve as the culmination and conclusion of Cal’s story, with its market release potentially occurring towards the end of 2026.
The most intriguing details concern the potential plot. According to leaks, the narrative will delve deeper into Cal’s personal experiences and his family relationships. Motifs related to his daughter are mentioned, along with an adopted daughter named Katie. Reports suggest a possible conflict between them, while Cal himself will wage a decisive battle against the Dark Side of the Force, aiming to ultimately conquer it. It’s believed that in this struggle, the hero will wield a white lightsaber, symbolizing his chosen path.
Regarding gameplay, discussed innovations include the addition of a dual blaster stance and a moral choice system, similar to those found in games like Spider-Man: Web of Shadows or Ghost of Tsushima. However, it’s emphasized that these decisions will not critically impact the main story’s ending. It is likely that the May 4th announcement will be limited to a brief teaser or the unveiling of the game’s logo.
