  • We've updated Cal so that he is more responsive during combat. This change includes tweaks to stagger reactions, kicks, flybacks, staff parry and sprint attacks.

  • Fixed an issue that would cause ledge grabs and climbing to sometimes behave incorrectly.

  • Fixed an audio issue that would sometimes cause sound effects to play in the incorrect order.

  • Multiple collision fixes across both Zeffo and Bogano.

  • BD-1 would sometimes not scan one of the Zeffo Villagers after a shutdown during saving. Everyone’s favourite droid is now scanning as expected.

  • Terrarium sometimes wasn't a very nurturing environment, preventing seeds from growing. It should now give your plants the love and care that they deserve, encouraging them to grow properly.

  • General stability improvements

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order is one of the best games based on the franchise. It is a little rough in places, and it is not an innovative game, but it's still an enjoyable action-adventure title with great combat and exploration.

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order feels like a familiar experience, and this is both its main strength and major weakness. All of the elements of the game are well-crafted, but they feel quite derivative, as there is not a single gameplay mechanic that hasn't been more or less lifted from a major franchise. Despite the lack of innovation, the game developed by Respawn is one of the best single-player games released in recent times and a must-buy for any Star Wars fan. Even those with only a passing interest in the series will find plenty to like here, granted they are not expecting to play a revolutionary title.

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order is now available on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
