The release ofStar Wars Jedi: Fallen Orderwas sure to have a bunch ofStar Warsflavored Easter Eggs.

InFallen Order, there’s a sequence early on where Cal is following someone in a train. After a while, Cal will run into a door he can’t open. Most players will try the door a few times, realize the door was locked, and turn around to continue the sequence. However, if a player is particularly adamant about getting through the locked door, they’ll come across an Easter Egg. Examining the door 66 times will have a sound clip play of ‘Execute Order 66’.
What is Order 66? In theStar Warsuniverse, Order 66 (or Clone Protocol 66) is a secret order to label all Jedi as traitors and have them executed. Palpatine was the executor of the order, which began the The Purge where many Jedi were killed. GivenwhenFallen Orderwas placed in theStar Warstimeline, the order would have been carried out about five years before the game’s start. It’s a neat callback to one of the movies as well as somewhat relevant, timeline-wise.
Hiding an Easter Egg behind trying to open what’s obviously a closed door is very weird, but not all Easter Eggs are meant to be found easily. OneFallen OrderEaster Egg is easy to find, with just the requirement of listening in on a conversation with some Stormtroopers. But with more hidden nods to the series like this ‘Execute Order 66’ Easter Egg, fans will have their hands full looking through every nook and cranny and trying all sorts of weird combinations for a chance at a reference.
Hopefully, though, the players that are exploring for hidden secrets or references won’t end upstuck in an area of Dathomir inFallen Order. Sometimes curiosity can lead to problems!
