Cal Kestis actor confirms Star Wars Jedi 3 during Comic Con panel

Cal Kestis actor Cameron Monaghan has said that he is currently working on a third Star Wars Jedi game.

During a panel at Ocala Comic Con, Monaghan said: “We’re working on a third and we’re in the process of doing that right now.

“That’s a big undertaking and there have been some conversations so far, but hopefully when all things and said and done we’ll be able to go in and make something really cool.”

This panel took place only shortly before Stig Asmussen, the director of both Star Wars Jedi games, announced that he was leaving developer Respawn Entertainment.

As reported by Bloomberg, Asmussen is leaving Respawn and its parent company EA, with his next destination currently unknown.

“After careful thought and consideration, Stig Asmussen has decided to leave Respawn to pursue other adventures, and we wish him the best of luck,” an EA spokesperson told Bloomberg in a statement.

“Veteran Respawn leaders will be stepping up to guide the team as they continue their work on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.”

Asmussen said back in February that he hoped to make a third Star Wars Jedi game.

“I always wanted to see this as a trilogy,” he told IGN at the time, speaking about the second game, Survivor. “How can we take Cal and the crew to new places beyond what we were doing in the first game?

“We had a pretty decent idea of timeframe where we wanted Survivor to take place, what the stakes were going to be, what the tone of the game was going to be, what Cal was going to be up against, and how the crew was going to factor into that. And there’s ideas of what we could do beyond that as well.”
