His lightsaber is out constantly, and he proves that he’s still adept at deflecting blaster bolts. He uses the “point over there to make stormtroopers hear a noise” trick that he’ll use again in A New Hope. One of them is a Jedi Youngling, so the Empire is definitely keeping it classy.Īside from this unfortunate discovery, Ben Kenobi moving through the base is a thing of beauty. “It’s a tomb,” he says, coming across several dead Jedi (and possibly some Force sensitives) encased in what looks like amber. He can’t help but wonder what else is being hidden here, and before long he finds out. He also started to get his Jedi groove back, and (also like Cal Kestis) he busted some water-bearing windows.Īs Reva (Moses Ingram) unsuccessfully interrogates Leia (one recalls her “resistance to the mind probe” in A New Hope), Tala guides Ben through the base. Ben Kenobi swam right into the heart of the place, and he discovered darker secrets than Cal Kestis ever did. Let’s save our money!”įool you twice, shame on you. Did no one think to prevent it from happening again, or did they think, “Sure someone swam right into our top-secret base, but that’s a one-time thing. There was no one helping him on the inside, but still. The events of the game are considered canon, so Cal Kestis swimming into the place has already happened. This entire scenario sets a new low for Imperial security in the Star Wars saga, because the Fortress Inquisitorius was invaded in an almost identical way in Fallen Order, which was not all that long before this. Half of the base is underwater, making this swim-filtration possible. Tala manages to infiltrate the base thanks to her active Imperial credentials, and she opens an underwater hatch so Ben can swim in. Roken (O’Shea Jackson Jr.) and the other members of the Path think this is a suicide mission, but Kenobi is not going to give up on Leia. Anyone who has played the game Star Wars: Jedi: Fallen Order through to the end will feel history repeating itself with this new episode, as Ben Kenobi and Tala (Indira Varma) invade the Fortress Inquisitorius to rescue Leia Organa (Vivien Lyra Blair).
