Some unfortunate news for those looking forward to Star Wars Fallen Order 2 but aren't yet on the new generation consoles. Gaming insider Jeff Grubb reports that the game will only be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
According to Grubb, you'll have time to score a new console before the game comes out, but it's only coming out in 2023. It's disappointing news for some, but the upside to all this is that EA and Respawn will put a lot more focus into the game, and we should end up with better quality instead of trying to create a game that works both on both generation consoles.
"It makes it easier to just disassociate yourself with those millions of PS4s and Xbox Ones out in the world when you are in 2023 and you're going to have several months of making it very easy to get an Xbox Series X, probably a few months before now and then when it's actually okay to get a PS5," he said.
"And then at the same time you can take advantage of it and do something that feels new."
EA and Respawn are also working on two other Star Wars projects, including a first-person shooter led by Medal of Honor co-creator Peter Hirschmann. Additionally, Grubb added we should get a small preview of Fallen Order 2 at the upcoming Star Wars Celebration. The other project is expected to be a new Star Wars strategy game made in collaboration with XCOM and Civilization studio Firaxis Games.
