There is much excitement over Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order after EA and Respawn Entertainment finally unveiled the game's official trailer at Star Wars Celebration. However, the teaser also led to some questions. For one, people are wondering why lead character Cal Kestis appears so young. Luckily, we finally have the answers from the people behind the game itself.
Lucasfilm's director of franchise content and strategy Steve Blank and Fallen Order director Stig Asmussen recently spoke to Game Informer about the character played by Gotham actor Cameron Monaghan. Not surprisingly, Blank admitted that they didn't initially consider Cal's age so much since they were more focused on the character's experiences and mindset.
Asmussen added that before Monaghan came into the picture, the team was already driven towards focusing on a younger character.
This certainly confirms that we will see Cal "learn and grow" throughout the game. Perhaps we'll even get to see him practice everything he learned as a Padawan as the game develops.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will be available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on November 15.
