The story may be headed nowhere on celluloid, but there appears to be hope yet for the Star Wars mythos in video game land: Chris Avellone, a designer and writer who needs no introduction by RPG fans, has revealed on Twitter he helped Respawn shape their upcoming Star Wars game, “Jedi: Fallen Order.” Avellone, whose credits include KOTOR II, Planetscape: Torment, Icewind Dale, and Fallout 2, has added the following to his LinkedIn page: “Narrative Designer/Writer (contractor) did story work, story/character reviews, and wrote cinematic scripts for Jedi: The Fallen Order.”
We don't know much about Fallen Order at this point, but leaks indicate that it will take place shortly after Episode 3, Revenge of the Sith, and will be about a Padawan who managed to survive Order 66. It will also be singleplayer-only, which might seem a bit unusual for Respawn, whose previous games include Titanfall and Apex Legends. But let us never forget that Titanfall 2 was one of the best singleplayer shooters to come along in years (seriously, it's a tragedy that it wasn't a major hit), and adding Avellone to that formula makes it an even more exciting prospect.
