Cal Kestis may face the trials of the Dark Side in Star Wars Jedi 3 — according to rumors, the announcement of the triquel from Respawn Entertainment will take place on May 4. The new part will be the finale of the story that began in Fallen Order and Survivor, and development is in full swing, despite the departure of Stig Asmussen from the studio in September 2023.

What is known about the plot and gameplay of Star Wars Jedi 3?
Insiders analyzed the expanses of Reddit from the user Cursed_69420 — although the source shared the data earlier, it is not worth taking the word for it yet. According to Plum, the central theme of the finale will be Cal’s inner cleansing and his struggle against falling into darkness.
The main details of a possible plot:
-
Family drama: Cal will allegedly have a daughter (native or adopted), and Kata, the daughter of Bode from the previous part, will accompany her. The conflict between the grown-up girls will become an important engine of history.
-
White Lightsaber: As part of his spiritual journey, Kestis can receive a purified blade — whether it will be his own weapon or Dagan’s saber is still unclear.
-
Moral choice: A decision system is planned to be added to the game. They are unlikely to affect the global finale, but local consequences in individual episodes are guaranteed.
-
Dual—blaster style: The Jedi’s arsenal will expand – if in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Cal was limited to one pistol, then in the triquel they will shoot with two hands.
Release date and development status of the new Star Wars Jedi
The production process now resembles the situation with Survivor — the script and game mechanics are being cut at the same time, which is why the project is constantly storming from edits. This is a normal practice for Respawn Entertainment, but it takes time — most likely, the release will take place no earlier than spring 2027.
We are waiting for the official details on the Day of “Star Wars”. Lucasfilm and Electronic Arts usually reserve the juiciest announcements for May 4, which is the perfect date for the first teaser of the trilogy’s completion.
