We can safely assume one of these is Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 2, previously rumoured to launch in Q4 2022. As for the FPS game, that's believed to be based on The Mandalorian, after leaked gameplay footage emerged back in August last year. Most recently, Hirschmann directed Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond for Respawn in 2020.

Finally, Respawn's third project sees them take on a producing role with development led by Bit Reactor, a new studio formed by XCOM and Civilization veterans. Respawn confirms work has already begun on these games, though we don't know when they'll likely be unveiled. We'll keep you informed with further Star Wars news as it happens.
