During EA’s Q3 2020 financial call with investors, EA revealed that “Sales of Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order significantly beat our expectations.” CFO Blake Jorgensen says that EA originally predicted Jedi: Fallen Order to sell between 6-8 million units for the fiscal year, but Star Wars already “hit the high end of that in the third quarter.” [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="legacyId=20096150&captions=true"] EA now says that it anticipates Jedi: Fallen Order to sell “around 10 million units in the fiscal year, a very strong result for a single-player action game.” Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a single-player game developed by Respawn Entertainment. The game follows Jedi-in-hiding Cal Kestis as he battles the Empire while rediscovering his Jedi training following their extermination from Order 66.
