It Connects to Other Star Wars Properties
This shouldn’t come as a huge surprise, but Fallen Order does indeed connect to other stories within the Star Wars universe.
First and foremost among those is the animated show Star Wars Rebels. While it doesn’t directly link, the main villains of Fallen Order are the Inquisitors, who were fully introduced in Rebels.
On top of this, one of the planets you’ll be visiting is Dathomir, an important location in The Clone Wars and other stories. Dathomir is the homeworld of Darth Maul and the base of the Nightsisters, a coven of witches that Asajj Ventress belonged to.
Another connection revolves around Saw Gerrera, a prominent rebel leader first introduced in The Clone Wars who also appears in Rogue One. Cal directly interacts with Gerrera, cementing the character’s place in the larger story even more.
These are just a few examples, but for Star Wars fans there are a lot of little links to ground Fallen Order in the larger universe.
