Developed by Respawn Entertainment (Titanfall, Apex Legends), Fallen Order is a third-person action-adventure game set in the early days of the Empire. Order 66 has been issued, which calls for the assassination of every living Jedi in the galaxy. Players take on the role of survivor Cal Kestis, who must learn the martial ways of his order while fighting back against fascism. The game was critical as well as commercial success, selling far more units than expected.
