Star Wars Jedi: Survivor rating confirms a seriously dark game

Star Wars hasn't shied away from distressing themes in the past.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is set in an "extremely dark" time in the series' history where our hero Cal Kestis will be "[pushed] to the point where he might break."

If this is a surprise to you, I implore you to dip into your memories of A New Hope, specifically the scene where Luke Skywalker comes home to see the charred bodies of his aunt and uncle lying in the sand of Tatooine. Amongst its inspiring moments and ribbing of its central cast, Star Wars hasn't shied away from seizing your heart out of your chest and feeding it into an industrial shredder.

In fact, Kate said that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor should see an R-rating slapped on its cover. "Given the breadth of this universe, surely occasions exist when good simply can’t win - where perhaps you need to fight fire with fire, and become your enemy to overcome them," she argued, though the game is now confirmed to be rated T for Teen according to the Entertainment Software Ratings Board.

"Players use lightsabers to slash and break apart alien creatures, droids, and humanoid enemies. Combat is fast paced, with cries of pain, impact sounds, and large explosions. Some sequences depict characters getting impaled through the chest. The words 'a*s' and 'bastard' are heard in the game," reads the entry on the ESRB's official website. Fallen Order was also rated T for Teen as a barometer of what would be contained in the game.

So, it's missed the mark of our own hopes for its content, however that isn't to say it won't be an entertaining game. Furthermore, there's a tie-in novel titled Star Wars Jedi: Battle Scars which will explore what happened in those five years between the two games. The Fifth Brother, who you'll remember from Obi-Wan Kenobi, is confirmed to show up as well as Cere Junda, Greez Dritus, Nightsister Merrin and of course BD-1.
