Does Star Wars have an Elden Ring? Fans are still debating Fallen Order.

Fans are still debating whether Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order qualifies as a Soulslike years after launch.

The discussion centers on its combat, checkpoints, level design, and boss fights, which some players see as Soulslike-inspired.

The argument started before release and has continued ever since, showing how hard game genre labels can be to pin down.

The piece highlights Fallen Order’s clear influences from FromSoftware games like Demon’s Souls and Sekiro, but also the ambiguity of the category.
