Yesterday at Comic Con in New York, Marvel presented Star Wars: Jar Jar Binks #1 - a one-shot entirely dedicated to the most controversial hero of a distant galaxy.
The main intrigue of the issue is that one of the stories was co-authored by Ahmed Best, the actor who voiced Jar Jar Binks in the prequels and played Jedi Kelleran Beck in the show Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge and the 20th episode of The Mandalorian. The plot will revolve around these two heroes.
The game based on the Star Wars universe, announced in 2021, has received an update in development.
The franchise has experienced a slight decline in the last decade. Following the new trilogy of films, the films are mostly being developed on Disney+. Soon, a galaxy far, far away will return to the big screen, but things are mixed with games.
It seemed that the brand would regularly release blockbusters, but recently we only received Star Wars Jedi and Star Wars Outlaws. Several other games were cancelled, while others were delayed in development. One of these projects is Star Wars Eclipse.
The announcement took place at The Game Awards in 2021. This will be the first game set exclusively during the Rise of the Republic era. Moreover, it is expected that inEclipseyou will need to make choices that shape the story.
Lucasfilm's next project will not expand the Star Wars universe, offering a unique take on the franchise.
The line between canon and non-canon has been quite blurred for a long time. Everything changed after the studio became part of Disney. However, experiments withStar Warsdid not stop there.
The third season of the anthology seriesStar Wars: Visions will officially premiere on Disney+ later this month. Fans will receive new storylines, and some stories will be continued.
Actor Cameron Monaghan said that Cal Kestis, the protagonist of the acclaimed games Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, is his favorite character of his entire career. The announcement was made during a recent special screening of the new season of the animated miniseries LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy – Pieces of the Past, which premiered last month on Disney Plus.
Our games are generally aimed at adults, and Cal often finds himself in dangerous situations and experiencing existential angst. It was nice to have fun with him and relax.
- the actor added, referring to the appearance of Cal Kestis in two episodes of the children's LEGO series.
At a time when “add-ons” were not yet DLC, but were translated from English as “expansions”, just six months later, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II received its own additional script.
Star Wars: Beyond Victory is a project from ILM (Industrial Light & Magic), a studio known for Vader Immortal and Tales from the Galaxy's Edge. The game offers three modes: a story-driven “Adventure” mode, an arcade mode about pod racing, and a “Playset” mode in which you can move characters and vehicles from “Star Wars” into your own room.
The story mode is approximately two hours long and takes players into the world of Empire-era sub-racing (and also contains references to the Han Solo film). Arcade mode allows you to race on a holographic table right in your room, which is more reminiscent of playing in an arcade machine than a classic racing race. Well, “Playset” makes it possible to transfer characters and vehicles from the Star Wars universe into mixed reality - it turns out something like virtual toys in your home.
Star Wars returns to theaters in spring 2026 to continue the story of Din Djarin and Grogu. The first trailer hinted at the plot of the film, but it is being kept secret for now.
According to a report from the podcast Star Wars Sessions, The Mandalorian and Grogu featured more location shooting than the Mando series. This gave the project one of the main advantages over its predecessor.
It's worth noting that during the three seasons ofThe Mandalorian, The Volume technology was mainly used. Despite its advantages, this approach also had disadvantages, for example, the long preparation of 3D scenery.
We rarely indulge in theories about future Star Wars projects, but there's one circulating on social media that's so wild (yet plausible) that we had to look into it.
Ahsoka Season 2 recently wrapped filming and is expected to premiere next year on Disney+. For now, only bits and pieces of the series are available to fans, and the main source of news about the new season ofStar Warshas been controversial behind-the-scenes photos of the actors. However, recent comments from Bryce Dallas Howard, who directed two of the eight episodes of the second season, coupled with the intriguing note on which the first season ended, has sparked a lot of speculation about what's to come.
The theory outlined by ScreenRant suggests that the Gods of Mortis will play a significant role in the second season. This is a reasonable assumption, considering that the first season ended with Bailan Skoll standing on top of a huge statue of the Father.
But the Father is only one of the three Gods of Mortis, the others are the Son and the Daughter. For those unfamiliar, the Gods of Mortis were introduced inThe Clone Warsas three extremely powerful figures representing three different facets of the Force: the dark side (Son), light side (Daughter), and balance (Father). It is implied that the murder of the Daughter inThe Clone Warsdisturbed the balance of the Force, which perfectly set the stage for Anakin's fall to the dark side inRevenge of the Sith
