The Star Wars Jedi games have really been a breath of fresh air for the franchise as a whole, really showing that games can continue to lead the way when it comes to direct adaptations of the IP. The two games we have enjoyed so far have brought us some way through the story of Cal Kestis, as he goes from young padawan caught up in Order 66, to a fully fledged force user.
That story isn't done just yet, though, and there are plenty of fans waiting in the wings to find out exactly what EA and Respawn Entertainment are planning to do next, particularly in light of the former being sold. Now, we have an update from those in charge of the franchise, and it has seemingly been confirmed that the next part in the series will almost certainly be the last.
As first reported by Game Rant, EA has already confirmed that the next game in the Star Wars Jedi series will serve as the final part of the story. Though that doesn't rule out potential spin-offs or additional games where Cal Kestis can appear in some capacity, the games where he stars as the protagonist will be all done with the next game.
That revelation came via EA’s President of Entertainment and Technology, Laura Miele, who gave a speech as part of EA's Investor Day presentation in September 2024.
"We have delivered some of the highest quality and best-selling Star Wars games of all-time, with over $5 billion in net bookings," said Miele. "This impressive track record includes, of course, the Star Wars Jedi games, where over 40 million Star Wars fans have connected with Cal Kestis and his arc of becoming a powerful Jedi. Respawn is working hard to bring the final chapter of this thrilling story to players."
Interestingly, we really haven't heard too much about the next game just yet, and there isn't a confirmed timeline for when we might actually get to play it.
The sale of EA to a consortium led by Saudi Arabian investors threw a ton of projects into doubt, but it seems as though the final part of the Star Wars Jedi series is continuing. Mass Effect fell by the wayside to facilitate another Battlefront game, which likely means Star Wars is a continued priority more generally, giving the third Jedi game a certain layer of projection moving forward.
At the same time, the game is also considerably further along in development than Mass Effect 5 was, making a cancellation considerably more costly. At the same time, given how well the series has sold to date, the concluding part of the trilogy could be what's needed to bring some impetus back into EA's development side more generally.
Outside of that, we also have a ton of other exciting Star Wars projects coming down the pipeline, from the remake of Knights of the Old Republic, to the new effort set during the same era in Fate of the Old Republic.
