In Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order “you really have to think when you go into fights”, says developer Respawn
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order looks a lot like the Star Wars game we’ve always dreamed of, especially after its widespread debut at E3 2019. Respawn Entertainment, creators of Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends, is creating a third-person action game in which you become the boots of a young Jedi on the run after running Order 66 on the hunt for the Empire’s deadly Inquisitors.
Stig Asmussen, game director on Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, who previously directed God of War 3, talked about exhilarating third-person combat in its sister publication, the official PlayStation Magazine. These were all part of the extensive magazine covers dedicated to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which can be read directly in print and digitally on the official PlayStation Magazine 163.

Breaking away from its first-person shooter roots, Respawn develops Fallen Order, a third-person action-adventure game starring Cal Kestis, a young Padawan who escaped a post-emperor slaughter during the Star Wars Episode 66 3: Revenge event. of sis. To survive being hunted down by the Empire’s best soldiers, you must develop your relationship with the Force and expand the range of powers and abilities at your disposal.
These abilities include walking on walls, pulling objects to jump, and fighting. Cal mixes this with melee lightsaber combat. Respawn describes this as “a thoughtful battle.”

“Now it’s kind of a trend that we see more in games. We used the word ‘thoughtful’ when we first started working on the game,” Asmussen told OPM, “but you’re looking at other games that aren’t about body size. It’s more important to know from which angle it’s best to approach the enemy and how best to get rid of it. These are not only solitary fighters, but also the specific array of enemies they have in a specific battle.
Enemies that the Inquisitor interrupts the sword can also fight against the Jedi. The black-clad fuzzy trooper can wield a lightsaber with him in melee combat, while the Second Sister is the Inquisitor himself and is a power user. He turned to the dark side to hunt down the Emperor’s enemies and wipe out the Jedi. A decisive blow requires both thought and skill in the tense battles of Fallen Order. “Part of that comes from the fact that we’re using lightsabers,” Asmussen says. “Most enemies actually hit and go down on hit, essentially killing them with one lightsaber swing.”
counterattack
It’s fair enough. No one should be able to withstand consecutive blows with a lightsaber. Splitting flesh and armor into one is like sticking a knife in the softest butter. This means Respawn will have to be creative in their approach to combat in Fallen Order. “What sets it apart from other games is that it’s not a sword or a club,” Asmussen said. “You can’t hit something over and over again.” “I had to infuse the enemy with an Intelligence level to make it feel like you don’t always get 10 hits to take someone down.”
When approaching combat scenarios like this, there are concerns about how best to approach a group or how to break through strong enemy defenses. “That’s what happened. Anyway, it was kind of like approaching combat in a melee action game, and it was like putting a lightsaber on top of it. When you fight, you really have to think,” Asmussen says.
History of the Fallen Order
The story of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is told by developers Respawn and LucasFilm.
All of this means that Respawn takes a more cautious approach to combat in Fallen Order. You shouldn’t start with an experience like 2008’s Star Wars: Force Unleashed or the recently resurrected Star Wars Battlefront 2. should be used instead. everyone Get out of all the troubles with the Inquisitors – think of Sekiro as more lightsabers and less scary monsters.
You’ll have to pay attention to your surroundings, grope and grope your way through scratches, and use all the tricks a young Jedi has on his sleeve. Even better, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order can be experienced firsthand when it releases this November.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order looks every bit the Star Wars game we have always dreamed of being able to play, especially after being shown in detail at E3 2019. Respawn Entertainment, that’s the studio behind Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends, is building a third-person action game where you are thrust into the boots of a young Jedi on the run, hunted by the Imperial’s deadly Inquisitors following the execution of Order 66.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order’s Game Director Stig Asmussen – who previously directed God of War 3 – spoke with our sister publication Official PlayStation Magazine to detail the electrifying third-person combat. This was all a part of the magazine’s huge cover exclusive on Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which you can read for yourself in print and digitally in Official PlayStation Magazine 163.

Respawn is moving away from its first-person shooter roots to create Fallen Order, a third-person action adventure game in which Cal Kestis, a young padawan who escaped the slaughter after Order 66 was given by the Emperor during the events of Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith. To survive being hunted by the Imperials’ best troopers, you’ll need to grow your relationship with the Force and expand the array of powers and abilities available to you.
Those powers include things like wall running, force-pulling objects to leap to, and combat. Cal mixes these up with melee lightsaber combat – something Respawn is describing as “thoughtful combat.”

“You see it as kind of a trend more in games now. When we started working on the game, that’s how we coined it, ‘thoughtful,’” Asmussen tells OPM. “But you’re seeing some other games right now where it’s not about body count. It’s more about really figuring out what is the best angle to get on your enemy, and what’s the best way to take them down. That’s not only single combatants, but it’s also like, the arrangements, of specific enemies that you have in any given fight.”
The enemies the Inquisitors send Cal’s way can hold their own, even against a Jedi: the black-clad Purge Troopers are able to match lightsaber blows with him in close-quarters combat, and the Second Sister is an Inquisitor herself, a force user who has been turned to the dark side to hunt down the Emperor’s enemies and eradicate the Jedi. In the tense fights you’ll find yourself moving between in Fallen Order, it’ll take thought as well as dexterity to land that decisive killing blow. “Part of that was also born out of the fact that we’re using a lightsaber,” says Asmussen. “Most enemies, if you actually strike them and you get a hit through, they go down, and you basically kill them with one hit of the lightsaber.”
Striking Back
That’s fair enough. Nobody should be withstanding strike after strike from a lightsaber; cutting through flesh and armour with one is like running a knife through the softest butter. It means Respawn has had to get creative with its approach to combat in Fallen Order. “What makes it different than a weapon in any other game is that’s it’s not a sword, it’s not a bat – you can’t just keep on whacking at something,” Asmussen continues. “We had to give the enemies – we had to inject in them a certain amount of intelligence so that they feel like you’re not always landing like ten hits to take somebody down.”
Hence the need for thought when approaching combat scenarios, whether that’s about how to approach a group, or the best way to break through a strong opponent’s defence. “That’s kind of what that was born out of. It was a setup of how we wanted to approach battles in a melee action game anyway, and then it was like then you layer lightsaber on top of that. You really have to think when you go into fights,” says Asmussen.

All of this means that Respawn is taking a more considered approach to combat in Fallen Order. You shouldn’t come into this expecting an experience like 2008’s Star Wars: The Force Unleashed or the more recent revival of Star Wars Battlefront 2. Instead, you’ll need to use the force to come out of each scrape with the Inquisitors alive – think Sekiro with more lightsabers and less horrible monsters.
You’ll need to be mindful of your surroundings, you’ll need to think and feel your way through scrapes, and you will need to utilise all of the tricks a young Jedi has hiding up his sleeves. Better still, you’ll be able to experience it for yourself when Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order launches this November.
