For instance, we see him face off against Vader in Fallen Order, and it’s clear that he is (at best) about as powerful as Luke Skywalker was when Luke faced Vader in Empire Strikes Back. However, Fallen Order and Survivor’s narratives do shine a little light on Cal’s overall power level. It’s kind of difficult to use every combat sequence in the game as a proper measuring stick for his power. A common battle droid can kill Cal relatively easily at higher difficulty levels, though the same is true of many Star Wars characters in similar games. So how powerful is Cal Kestis supposed to be in the grand scheme of the Star Wars mythos? It’s tricky to say for sure, especially since Cal’s power is being measured against necessary video game hurdles. The implication seems to be that he’s already incredibly capable and growing more powerful all of the time. We even see Cal enter a trance-like state that seemingly turns him into a nearly unstoppable being. Some of those new abilities (such as manipulating heavy objects with apparent ease and controlling complex minds) have previously been limited to some pretty powerful Force users. He not only retains the abilities he previously learned but actually acquires quite a few new abilities along the way. In Survivor, Cal picks up right where he left off.
