Star Wars enthusiasts, brace yourselves – the development of a third Star Wars Jedi game is officially underway.
This exciting revelation did not originate from Respawn, the development studio, or EA, the publisher; instead, it came from Cameron Monaghan, the actor who provides the face and voice for the Jedi protagonist Cal Kestis.
During a recent panel at Ocala Comic Con, Monaghan candidly acknowledged that the team was actively working on a “third” game. He did clarify that, at this stage, much of the progress primarily consists of “conversations” rather than concrete developments.
“We’re working on a third [game], and we’re in the process of doing that right now,” shared Monaghan during his panel. “That’s a big undertaking, and there have been some conversations so far, but hopefully, when all things are said and done, we’ll be able to go in and make something really cool.”
Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson had previously hinted at undisclosed projects in the works at Respawn Entertainment, the developer responsible for the Star Wars Jedi series.
Speaking at the recent Goldman Sachs Communacopia & Technology Conference, Wilson praised the success of EA’s acquisition of Respawn, acknowledging the studio’s remarkable contributions to the Star Wars Jedi series and Apex Legends.
“We haven’t done that many acquisitions; we’ve done a few,” Wilson stated. “Respawn, of course, was maybe one of the most incredible acquisitions ever done in the industry.”
“They’re an incredible team, and they’ve created incredible value for us, for our shareholders, and certainly for these global communities of players across Apex and the Jedi series. And you should imagine that there’s some other things going on at Respawn that we’re very excited about, that we’re not going to talk about but that we’re very excited about just given the quality of that group.”
Could the development of a third installment in the Star Wars Jedi series be among those intriguing projects taking shape at Respawn? Star Wars fans will undoubtedly be keeping a close watch for any further developments.
