14. The Split-Part Lightsaber

EA made the decision to reveal that Fallen Order would have double-bladed lightsabers on the day of release, potentially because the feature had been leaked the day before after copies had gotten into the wild. That's a shame, as while the game never really makes a big deal out of the feature at any point, it still would've been a nice surprise nevertheless.

But that's not the only lightsaber type Respawn included. The studio went one step further by introducing the 'split-part' lightsaber once Cal completes his quest on Ilum, and while you can't wield two separate sabers as a default stance, they're still pretty cool.

Interestingly, they're not a new addition to the canon either. Asajj Ventress also wielded a split-part lightsaber during the Clone Wars, putting Cal in infamous company as another user of the weapon.
