Respawn Leisure is again with one other recreation that includes Jedi Cal Kestis, however how previous is the protagonist of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
In Fallen Order, we obtained a take a look at Cal’s time as a Padawan beneath Jedi Grasp Jaro Tapal. Now, our hero is all grown up, however how previous is he at first of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
How Previous Is Cal Kestis in Jedi Survivor?
Cal Kestis is round 23 years previous at first of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The sport takes place 5 years after the occasions of Jedi: Fallen Order, by which Cal was 18.
Though Fallen Order by no means explicitly states Cal Kestis’ age, we do have a clue straight from the protagonist’s actor Cameron Monaghan.
In keeping with Monaghan in an interview with Esquire: “[Cal] being educated was a part of the established order for the primary 13 years of his life”.
Subsequently, once we see Cal as a Padawan in Fallen Order flashbacks, he was solely round 13 years previous when Order 66 was initiated in 19 BBY (Earlier than the Battle of Yavin). This may put his date of delivery as being round 32 BBY.
After we’re first launched to Cal Kestis at first of Fallen Order, it has been roughly 5 years since he went into hiding from the Nice Jedi Purge (14 BBY).
Given the truth that the story of Fallen Order all takes place in the identical 12 months, and it’s been 5 years for the reason that occasions of the primary recreation, Cal Kestis should due to this fact be 23 on the time of Jedi: Survivor’s starting.
Apparently, since Jedi: Survivor takes place in 9 BBY, that locations it in a really attention-grabbing part of the Star Wars timeline.
In reality, it was the identical 12 months that the Obi-Wan Kenobi present occasions happened and solely a 12 months after Han Solo met Chewbacca.
As of proper now, we don’t know whether or not the story of Survivor will span a number of years. Probably, it’ll all happen over a brief time frame, leaving our protagonist in his early twenties in the intervening time.
