Yeah, I’m not super pumped about this leak either. SPOILERS BELOW

Apparently, the new inquisitor Reva is actually supposed to find Luke while Obi-Wan is busy fighting Vader. When Obi-Wan returns to Tatooine after the battle, he finds Reva standing over Luke, saber drawn. He then gives a big speech about how Reva has been manipulated by the dark side her entire life, and there’s still time for her to change. Because of that, she decides not to kill Luke and leaves. When she returns to Vader, she tells him that she killed Obi-Wan, but Vader sees through her BS and kills her.

Personally, I don’t like it at all. It feels like it completely ruins Luke’s character in ANH if he was already exposed to lightsabers and Jedi 10 years before his hero’s journey began. Luke wouldn’t be mesmerized by his father’s lightsaber, he would just say “Isn’t that the kind of weapon that evil Imperial lady tried to kill me with?” And I don’t know if I’m a big fan of them including yet another “redemption equals death” moment, especially given how similar this one feels to the ending of Jedi Fallen Order.
