Discover new planets and familiar frontiers in the Star Wars galaxy, each with unique biomes, challenges, and enemies. Master new skills, equipment, and abilities that will augment the ways you explore, fight, and roam. With larger areas to explore and more to discover off the beaten path, players who adventure beyond the horizon will find hidden rewards. The trailer also indicates that the crew of the Stinger Mantis are separated, at least towards the beginning of the game, with Cal operating on his own. Merrin, Greez and Cere all are confirmed to appear in the sequel, but it’s clearly been a long time since they last saw each other judging by the way Greez and Cal are shown briefly embracing. BD-1, Cal’s trusty little droid companion, is also returning of course. If there’s one slight blemish on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s record, it’s that it can sometimes struggle on a technical level. Playing on PS5 in what should be the silky-smooth Performance mode, the game often struggles to hold a steady 60fps during locations that are particularly dense, and moments where the action moves from basic ground combat to full-on cinematic spectacle. There's the occasional pop-in present in the distance of some planets, too, but overall none of these shortfalls were enough to ruin my fantasy of being a Jedi master. It’s just a shame that as a current-gen console exclusive these minor issues still arise from time to time. I could definitely see Jedi: Survivor being bought for the Clark household, but whether I play it or not is another matter. Though, I guess that’s more a me not having time thing than anything else. I’m sure the game will however satisfy fans of the first title. after all, why reinvent the wheel at this point?

Star Wars fans are eating well this year. The hotly anticipated third season of Disney+ series The Mandalorian is set to drop in March, and a brand-new Star Wars video game will follow closely behind.Perhaps we can look forward to some answers about the Jedi we saw trapped in an amber-like substance in Fortress Inquisitorius?

While anyone who plays through Jedi: Survivor’s campaign long enough will eventually reach the Vader scene mentioned above, it’s entirely possible that most players will miss the game’s second biggest cameo: Boba Fett. Junda is again able to hold her own and eventually manages to bury Vader under a massive pile of flaming rubble. Unfortunately, her “victory” is short-lived. Vader emerges from the rubble with only a new singe or two to show for Junda’s best efforts. He soon kills Junda like the Terminator he is.

Crucially, though, for as wildly customisable as Cal is, Respawn never loses sight of the fact that this is very much the story of a predefined character still on a journey of growth, as opposed to merely a cipher for the player. And yes, while my Cal always looked pretty cool with his samurai-like robes and man bun hairdo to match, his journey to stop an old evil from rising again makes him more empathetic than ever before. Bolstered by what has easily become my favourite cast featured in any Star Wars media – yes, even you Star Wars Rebels – I feel confident in saying that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor weaves one of the best video game narratives based on the IP in an absolute age. That said, if this style of combat doesn’t suit you and you want to go wild and crazy pressing buttons when you shouldn’t be pressing buttons, well, allow us to introduce you to the Dual Saber Stance. Following a three-way standoff that includes an obvious reference to The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, Fett and Cal manage to subdue Vanda. Fett isn’t here to collect on Cal’s bounty today, and Cal seems content to just walk away and let this situation be. In the optional dialog that follows, though, Fett makes it clear that he has no love for the Jedi and that Cal should hope that their paths never meet again. If the newly released poster below is any indication, poor Cal has clearly been through a lot since we last saw him. Of course, with the sequel taking place ten years after the events of Revenge of the Sith, its story should line up with Obi-Wan Kenobi, meaning we could see some big crossovers and a greater exploration of that particular era.

I don't remember there being so many troopers, droids, raiders, bounty hunters, and **** frogs with Jedi DESTROYING weaponry, how many fully inhabited planets in the Star Wars universe have entire unexplored sections filled with boxes of useless junk/memories you need to find, and how many Jedi are still around?! Now no longer a Padawan but a powerful Jedi Knight, Cal continues his crusade against the Empire. He will discover new planets and familiar frontiers in the Star Wars galaxy, each with unique biomes, challenges, and enemies, as well as mastering new skills, equipment, and abilities that will augment the ways players explore, fight, and roam, with larger areas to explore and more to discover off the beaten path. Fett’s cameo is a classic cameo in the sense that it’s rather brief and not crucial to the plot (at least at this time). However, it’s a great scene that may eventually set up something more important for Fett in a future game. In Survivor, we see Vader invade Junda’s Jedi sanctuary and properly duel the Jedi Master this time around. To be more specific, players are actually able to control Junda during the duel and have a slightly more traditional boss fight with Vader.Regardless, this poster is accompanied by the news that Jedi: Survivor's latest trailer will drop during this Thursday's Game Awards. We've been hearing rumblings that might be the case for a while now, and the expectation is a release date will also be officially announced. Gunplay didn’t factor into Cal’s previous adventure, but that changes for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Because in addition to shooting enemies away from afar, Cal can combine weapons to hold a blaster in one hand and a lightsaber in the other. This is easily one of the biggest changes to combat when compared to its predecessor.

The original Star Wars Jedi: Survivor release date was March 17, 2023, as announced during last year’s The Game Awards. However, Respawn made the difficult decision to delay it at the end of January, explaining in a Tweet that it needed time to improve on “bug fixes to enhance performance, stability, polish, and most importantly, the player experience.” Less than a month out from release, there’s no sight of another delay coming up. It’s all systems go for Friday, April 28. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor platforms
