We suspected {that a} sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was coming, however we didn’t count on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to be revealed three years later. Its first reveal not solely offered us with a teaser trailer for the story, but additionally a launch window (we love dates).
Jedi: Fallen Order was a stable sport, however hopefully Star Wars Jedi: Survivor can tip the scales and ship one thing actually spectacular to the Soulslike style that it’s impressed by. If we get extra of the identical, I will not be glad, however I will be okay with it.
Right here’s every little thing we all know to date about Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, from the discharge date and story to the gameplay and PC necessities.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor launch date
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is slated to launch someday in 2023. If it’s following the identical launch schedule and Fallen Order, then we’ll doubtless see it arrive in November, 2023.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor might be obtainable for the PS5, Xbox Sequence X, Xbox Sequence S, and PC. It’s unclear if it will likely be obtainable for last-gen consoles.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor story
In response to a lore drop within the YouTube description of the trailer, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor takes place 5 years after the occasions of Jedi: Fallen Order. The one factor we actually know other than that’s that this can proceed Cal Kestis’ journey.
That is all hypothesis, however it seems that Cal is main a brand new group to battle the Sith menace. That’s not something new, all of us figured that may occur. However what was attention-grabbing is that the Sith he was preventing had one arm. And we ultimately see Cal observing a water chamber with an individual inside that additionally looks as if they’ve one arm. What’s extra alarming is that this individual sort of appears like Cal Kestis.
It’s completely doable that the Sith cloned Cal, however the lab appears to be deserted, so it’s additionally doable that the Cal we’ve been enjoying all alongside is the true clone. That might be some trippy stuff, however we don’t know something but.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor gameplay
We all know even much less concerning the Star Wars Jedi: Survivor gameplay. Nonetheless, it’s prone to be akin to the earlier title, serving up some Soulslike motion gameplay with a Star Wars aptitude on high of it. We do know that Respawn Leisure will really be working with Lucasfilms Video games on this mission, but it surely’s unclear in what manner.
I hope that Survivor isn’t just extra of the identical Fallen Order gimmicks. Cal Kestis wants some extra customization choices with reference to how he fights, together with extra participant alternative in that regard. Additionally, the beauty choices ought to be extra numerous and trendy. See Horizon: Forbidden West for some nice examples.
It could even be cool to see BD-1 with some extra fight choices as an alternative of simply being a easy help character. There’s numerous potential for some Kratos and Atreus-like crew ups that Cal and BD-1 might stand up to.

Outlook
I totally loved my time with Jedi: Fallen Order. It was difficult and gratifying once I overcame mentioned challenges. Nonetheless, I hope that Jedi: Survivor can keep away from a number of the buggy moments that plagued Fallen Order. Platforming was a battle, particularly when your physique clips by a ledge and plunges you into oblivion.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor appears fairly, and I am excited to see extra of it, which can most likely be nearer to the Fall and even the Sport Awards.
