Whether you're a fan of the franchise's ever continuing TV output, their renewed effort towards good video games, or their literature, there's a lot of interesting things on the horizon. The upcoming third season of The Mandalorian looks to have a much bigger scope than the previous two outings, and it's exciting news for many. Maybe that's to be expected for the flagship of Star Wars, a new lease on life, but from the sound of things, the wait for February 2023, and the feed of information that will come, is going.

We finally got confirmation that Star Wars would be returning in 2023. After blowing everyone away with Jedi Fallen Order, Respawn Entertainment was able to carve some time out of their massive schedule to develop a sequel, Jedi Survivor. It won't be a good game, given how great Respawn's track record has been, and how it ended in between the Prequel and Original trilogies, which gave it some narrative freedom.

We have to get through the rest of the year, which is not a bad thing. Diego Luna is getting his own mini-series, as is the new Tales of the Jedi series. We're getting more High Republic books later in the year that are set in a new era that sounds even more exciting than the last. We get to spend at least part of the summer with him, which honestly, doesn't we all deserve?

Let us know what you thought of the event, and this huge lightsaber-filled weekend, in the comments below.
