EA And Respawn Unveils New Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Extended Gameplay Video

star wars jedi fallen order lightsaber gameplayWhen Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment released their first-look gameplay footage of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order back at E3 they tried to pack everything into a 15-minute video featuring lightsaber combat. But, 15 minutes of fancy lightsaber swordplay just wasn’t enough to do the game justice as Game Director Stig Asmussen explains in his recent letter to the community.

“We spent months going back and forth discussing the best strategy to release this content,” writes Asmussen, “and ultimately decided for the first-look, it was critical to present a focused 15 minutes of raw, in-game footage highlighting lightsaber gameplay that speaks to the Jedi fantasy in an empowering way. But it should not be mistaken that our combat is overpowered or easy.”

This time they’ve rolled out an extended cut 25-minute gameplay video which should give fans a more well-rounded look at the upcoming game.

“I promise there is considerable challenge and depth to be found within our combat system. The same can be said about our approach to level design, which is crafted in a non-linear way with heavy influences from games like Metroid, Castlevania, and the Souls series. The game will feature several planets that the player can elect to travel to via starship. On these worlds unique abilities and upgrades can be found that open up new paths across other planets, making retraversal an essential part of the gameplay experience. This is a lot to describe in 15 minutes of gameplay. Getting hands on the full 25 minute experience is best to completely understand it.”

So bring out your lightsabers and prepare your Jedi mind tricks, because the full 25-minute demo video is sitting just down below.
