A sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will be announced just prior to E3 2022, gaming sleuth Jeff Grubb reckons. The GamesBeat journalist made the comment on the latest episode of his GiantBomb show GrubbSnax, which is behind a paywall. We will apparently be hearing about the sequel "in a significant way" before the big Los Angeles convention and a release this year is on the cards, but don't be surprised if the title slips into 2023.
With E3 2022 taking place in June, the annual Star Wars Celebration currently slated for the end of May appears to be the likely destination for the announcement. That's happening on 26th May 2022 through until the 29th, and is usually the place to be to catch glimpses of the next Star Wars flicks. We actually received a tipoff last month that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2 (unlikely to actually be called this, but, you know) would be announced during The Game Awards, but that quite clearly didn't come to fruition.
