Fans eager to find out Wars Jedi: Survivormay soon be in luck, as word around the internet claims that the game’s release date will finally be unveiled at The Game Awards next month. WithStar Wars Jedi: Survivorrumored to be launching early next year, chances are good that EA and Respawn Entertainment will use the last big gaming event of 2022 to really get the marketing machine going for the sequel toStar Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.
Released in 2019 to overall critical acclaim,Fallen Orderexpanded upon theStar Warsuniverse with the introduction of Cal Kestis, a Jedi apprentice on the run following the rise of the Galactic Empire. The game was praised for its mix of Metroidvania-esque exploration and Soulslike combat, resulting in one of the most unique single-player experiences set in the galaxy far, far away. It’s understandable then that a lot of fans are keen to see more of its follow-up, and frustrated thatEA has been silent aboutStar Wars Jedi: Survivorsince its official reveal earlier this year.

According to the latest from the rumor mill, that will change when the 2022 Game Awards air on December 8. Industry insider Jeff Grubb claimed on social media site Hive that the game is among the upcoming titles slated to appear, adding that it should confirmSurvivor’s rumored March 2023 release date. Elsewhere, Insider Gaming claimed that the announcement will take place around 30 minutes into the show and consist of a new trailer, the release date, and the pre-order date. Of course, this is all unverified information at the moment, so one should take this with a grain of salt until The Game Awards air or EA itself teases a reveal.
Not much is officially known aboutStar Wars Jedi: Survivor. EA has confirmed that it will once again star Cal five years after the events ofFallen Order, but other than that, fans have only been able to speculate how the game will expand on its predecessor’s gameplay. It’s been suggested, based on a leaked action figure of Cal with a blaster, thatSurvivormay introduce firearms, adding a new layer to combat beyond Cal’s lightsaber and Force powers. Whether the game does show at The Game Awards or not, hopefully EA will finally start sharing some gameplay details sooner rather than later.
The Game Awards 2022 are a little over two weeks away now, so it won’t be long before gamers will find out if all the rumored announcements lately will actually happen. These rumored reveals include theannouncement ofFinal Fantasy 16’s release date, a newCrash Bandicootgame, and a collaboration betweenResident Evilco-creator Shinji Mikami, Capcom, and PlatinumGames.
