Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Could Have Prequel Trilogy Fan Favorite Villain
Star Wars Celebration was beautiful. We were treated to a unique Star Wars announcement just a week back. Still, the most critical takeaway for gamers was undeniably The unveiling of Star Wars Jedi Survivor, which will be released in 2023.
The developers have already teased a darker journey for Cal Kestis, which will see him form some “unsavory” alliances. Fans have fascinating theories as to what that could mean. This new rumor is very appropriate if the game features a darker tone.
Whispers in the wind suggest that Darth Maul, a prequel trilogy fan favorite, could be appearing in Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Nick Baker, an industry insider, suggested the idea. While appearing on the Xbox Era Podcast, Baker stated that he hoped what he heard years ago about the game would hold. […] It was rumored that Darth Maul might have been in the game.
Although “I heard” isn’t a piece of credible evidence, let’s take a step back and consider this rumor. (As always, it should be taken with a grain of salt). Star Wars Jedi Survivor was allegedly set in 9BBY. We know that Darth maul was alive in Solo – The Star Wars Story one year before in 10BBY.
Star Wars’ BBY years count down in reverse, similar to our BC years. The sequel trilogy occurs in the ABY year, which functions like our AD years. All that?
It is possible that Maul could be seen in Star Wars Jedi Survivor if he was still alive in Solo. Considering that 9BBY is also the year Obi-Wan Kenobi was set, could Maul be seen in the remaining Disney Plus episodes? A new appearance seems inevitable, given how beloved and underused Darth Maul is.
