Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 - 10 Major Characters Who Could Appear

2. The Jedi Of The High Republic

This is a bit of an out-there theory, but let me explain. We still don't know what kind of sequel Fallen Order is getting. Respawn could just as easily choose to end Cal's journey where they did in the first game and opt to pursue a completely different character under the 'Jedi' branding, however unlikely that may seem.

That said, I could see Fallen Order 2 adopting a non-linear narrative. The first game's story revolved heavily around the Zeffo and ancient Force cultures, who existed thousands of years before the Skywalker Saga. Cal is even treated to a Force vision where one of the Zeffo reveals the last survivors are heading into the unknown regions, to a fate that is still unclear.

Could Fallen Order 2 revolve around Cal and Cere picking up where Eno Cordova left off, exploring the Zeffo and other ancient Force cultures? It seems like a possible avenue, especially now with the introduction of the High Republic, a new publishing initiative from Lucasfilm that takes place a couple hundred years before the events of The Phantom Menace.

The High Republic is by no means ancient, but it is old, and it's set to take a greater role in Star Wars in the coming years. It wouldn't be all that surprising at all if it had some sort of a role in Fallen Order 2, either in flashback, or in the game's geography, sort of how the Zeffo temples were used in the first game.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
