Recently, Respawn’s Stig Asmussen, who’s the director of the first entry as well as Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, discussed the upcoming title during an interaction. He was speaking to StarWars.com regarding the next installment as part of the ongoing SWCA 2022.

When he was asked about how they are using the power of next-gen consoles like PlayStation 5 to make the sequel better, he had this to say:

“So I think the biggest thing is ray tracing, or lighting. That’s allowing us to do real-time lighting, all the time, at a fidelity that’s well beyond anything that we’ve ever produced before.”
