4. The Knighting Ceremony

Fallen Order accomplishes a lot of 'firsts' for Star Wars. It's the first single-player Star Wars game of the current console generation, the first canon title to flesh out the gap between Episodes III and IV, and the first to obviously introduce a truckload more characters and lore to the franchise's mythology.

Something that players may not have realised, however, is that the game is also the first piece of Star Wars media to showcase a Jedi being genuinely knighted in the new continuity. The old 2003 Clone Wars had shown Anakin's knighthood, but this is the first occasion where the ceremony (albeit unofficial) has been depicted in the present canon.

It's a great moment, and gives fans a window into how Padawans graduated and became fully fledged Jedi Knights.
