Gamers who have been wanting a new Star Wars game will want to keep an eye out for this week's Summer Game Fest, as it's possible that the next Star Wars Jedi title could make an appearance. There are a lot of Star Wars games in the works at the moment, but Star Wars Jedi 3 has been one of the most anticipated for a while.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor have been some of the most celebrated Star Wars games of the past decade. Between its action-packed combat and the introduction of Cal Kestis as a new canon character, the Star Wars Jedi series has brought forth one of the franchise's best modern stories. It was recently confirmed that another Cal Kestis Star Wars story is on the way, but the biggest question is when fans will get to see the first sneak peek. That moment may be sooner than expected.
Summer Game Fest 2026 Set Up to Be 'Biggest Live Show Yet'
This year's Summer Game Fest is only a few days away, and event host Geoff Keighley is teasing one of the biggest showcases yet.
Star Wars Jedi 3 Could Potentially Be at Summer Game Fest
This comes from the official Insider Gaming Weekly podcast, with the next Star Wars Jedi game being brought up when the hosts were sharing their thoughts on which games they would love to see at the event. Star Wars Jedi 3 was one of the main games voiced as a hopeful announcement. This is far from an official confirmation that Star Wars Jedi 3 will be one of the big Summer Games Fest reveals, but Insider Gaming Editor-in-Chief Tom Henderson shared some interesting insight into what Cal Kestis' next chapter could have in store.
I mean this was like a year ago or whatever, but I heard that like Cal was going to be older in the game, so I don’t know if they’re doing like a little time jump or something.
Who’s That Character?

It's important to note that there have been a lot of Star Wars Jedi 3 rumors circulating the internet for years at this point, so they should all be taken with a grain of salt. However, if there was ever a perfect event to reveal what is planned next for Cal Kestis, it would be Summer Game Fest. An older version of Cal would be fascinating, and this isn't the first time that a time jump has been suggested by insiders. There was a jump in time between Fallen Order and Survivor, so that also wouldn't be too surprising, either.
There have been tons of questions when it comes to what to expect from Summer Game Fest. Several games have been confirmed, but there are still plenty of reveals being kept under wraps at the moment. With the showcase's air date being only a few days away, there are many gamers out there eager to find out what surprising announcements are being saved for the event.
Summer Game Fest will be streaming on June 5 via YouTube, Twitch, and Twitter at 2PM PT/ 5PM ET.

Many fans have been waiting to find out what the rest of Cal Kestis' story arc looks like, so a Summer Game Fest reveal would be one of the biggest moments of the showcase. Gamers will have to play the waiting game for a few more days for the broadcast, and it will hopefully have some good things in store for Star Wars fans.
