Star Wars Jedi 3 Insider Details Reveal Time Jump

[Saturday, June 6, 2026]

The third part of the Star Wars Jedi series from Respawn Entertainment still does not have a release date. Moreover, the game has not even been announced.

A recent episode of the Insider Gaming podcast discussed the major gaming showcases taking place in early June. While discussing potential surprises, Mike Straw opined that fans shouldn't expect Star Wars Eclipse. His sources suggest that the project is stuck in production hell, causing the release to be delayed several times. But the editor-in-chief of the gaming section of the publication, Tom Henderson, shared information about the threequelJedi.

I heard about a year ago that Cal would be older in the game, so I don't know if there will be some kind of small time jump. He uses his lightsaber as a cane.

Apparently, development is progressing smoothly. Based on this, an announcement is quite possible in the near future.

When might Jedi 3 take place in the Star Wars timeline?

Henderson's comments have led to speculation that the next installment could feature a much larger time jump. This would bring events closer to A New Hope.

Lucasfilm's recent comments reinforce the idea that Cal Kestis remains an important part of the franchise's future. In addition, it has been revealed that Luke Skywalker knows about Kestis. Their potential meeting could hint at a significant time jump.

Whether Henderson's information will ultimately be confirmed, time will tell. The release ofStar Wars Jedi 3is expected in 2027.
