The Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order press kit, which is packaged in a black wooden case, is comprised of:
• a limited-edition replica of Cal Kestis’ lightsaber (the same one seen in the game)

The EA Cal Kestis lightsaber replica is a full size metal prop replica. YouTuber TheRelaxingEnd characterizes the hilt as being “quite heavy”. The lightsaber hilt replica is intended for display purposes only and features an extremely detailed, weathered and battle worn appearance. The hilt exhibits an blackened, tarnished look along with various scraps and scratches. The bottom of the EA lightsaber hilt looks ripped and broken with wires sticking out. The ‘damaged’ base of the hilt particularly strongly resembles the broken Cal Kestis lightsaber depicted in the game and in promotional artwork.
The press kit includes an attractive wooden lightsaber stand for displaying the promotional EA Cal Kestis lightsaber replica. A layer of dark fabric covers the bottom of the base of the stand. A dedicated engraved name plate adorns the front of the stand base. The gold colored name plate reads, “Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order EA 11.15.2019” (the release date of the game was November 15, 2019). Two acrylic stand clips, which cradle the lightsaber hilt, attach to the top of the wooden stand base.
Although the lightsaber was never officially available for sale, as of July 7, 2020, one EA Cal Kestis lightsaber replica has been listed on eBay (affiliate link). Here are some photos of the lightsaber replica eBay listing (used with the permission of the seller).

It’s unclear exactly how many of the lightsaber hilt replicas were produced and distributed.
