Mark Hamill Gives Cal Kestis Advice in Charming New Jedi Survivor Ad

The stakes have never been higher for Cameron Monaghan’s Cal Kestis in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, as shown in a new trailer from Respawn, with him working closely with Jedi Master Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) to learn a few new tricks.

Once the trailer starts, you can see shots of Monaghan training in a motion capture suit, with Hamill telling him how to stay in character. As the video goes on, we’re given glimpses of how Hamill is training him in unconventional Jedi ways. By the end of the trailer, Monaghan is giving Hamill advice on how to play the upcoming game.

In addition to the new trailer, yesterday, April 26, EA revealed the accessibility options for Jedi Survivor. Some of these include a variety of difficulty options, the ability to remap your controls, a new feature that slows down the movement of the game, and more.

As of late, EA has been highlighting Cameron Monaghan more than usual. Late last year, in December, we were able to interview Monaghan to talk more about Jedi Survivor. And during The Game Awards, Monaghan made an appearance to show off a trailer.

There’s also been speculation that Cal may appear in a live-action Star Wars project. Because what happened in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series aligns with what Cal is dealing with in both games. Not to mention in an interview with ScreenRant, Monaghan stated that “there’s interest” in having Cal appear in a live-action project. However, whether Monaghan appears in a live-action project is ultimately up to Disney.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a sequel to the 2019 Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. In both games, you play as a young Jedi named Cal Kestis, who’s fighting for survival during the age of the Empire.

Be sure to check out our Star Wars Jedi: Survivor review, where Dan Stapleton wrote: “It’s a sequel that does virtually everything better than the original – which was already an exceptional Star Wars game. If Respawn makes one more like this it’ll complete the best Star Wars trilogy in 30 years, hands down.”
