Star Wars Jedi: Survivor features a much larger world to explore, developer confirms

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will feature a much larger world to explore, the developer has confirmed.

Some eyebrows were raised when Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was announced in December 2022. Not because we were getting a sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order starring Cal Kestis and his trusty BD-1 droid, but because the game was ditching last-gen consoles.

However, we now know some of the reasons why the sequel will only be released on PC as well as new-gen consoles.

During an interview with PLAY Magazine, (thanks PSU), the director of Jedi: Survivor, Stig Asmussen revealed that the sequel will not only include a much larger world/galaxy to explore, but it will also feature a lot more enemies and NPCs. Not to mention that it should also look and play even better than its last-gen counterpart.

In related Star Wars Jedi: Survivor news, the sequel recently suffered a delay from its intended March release date. A statement issued at the beginning of February 2023 announcing the delay reads:

“For the last three years, the Jedi team here at Respawn has poured its collective heart and soul into Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and we are proud to say the next chapter in the tale of Cal Kestis is content complete,” the statement reads. “We are now focused entirely on the final stage: bug fixes to enhance performance, stability, polish, and most importantly, the player experience."

“Jedi: Survivor is a direct response to the feedback from our community, delivering expansive destinations to explore, evolved combat and traversal, and of course, the continuation of Cal and BD’s story. Making this game has truly made us a better team, and we have pushed ourselves at every level to make this the Star Wars sequel our fans expect from Respawn and Lucasfilm Games,” it continues. “In order for the team to hit the Respawn quality bar, provide the team with the time they need, and achieve the level of polish our fans deserve, we have added six crucial weeks to our release schedule - Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will now launch globally on 28 April.”

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will be released for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
