Roughly one year after launching, STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is coming to Game Pass via EA Play. Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass for PC members will gain access to the title.
The title will hit EA play on April 25th. I reviewed the title back at launch and gave it a glowing review, despite some performance issues.
“STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is bigger and better in every way than 2019’s Fallen Order. Five years have passed since the first game. Cal Kestis and his friends are doing their best to fight the Empire as the latter continues to hunt the Jedi and their allies to extinction. Throughout 15+ hours you’ll slice, leap, force pull, push, and acrobat your way through a gorgeous and deadly galaxy. Jedi: Survivor is a massive game, which can be a bad thing if it’s not handled well.”
Concluding with:
“STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor continues Respawn’s run as one of the best in the industry. It is an incredible accomplishment, blending top-tier gameplay and narrative in a package few games can match. Performance during my review was rough, but if they can smooth it out then this is a game that no one should miss. For fans of STAR WARS, this is the game we have been waiting for. One that fixes the mistakes of the previous, and soars to heights we could have only dreamed of.”
The Xbox Wire account has a blog post up detailing the title at as well:

Play this game guys, it’s an amazing game and the best action-adventure since Darksiders 1 IMO! Koboh is one of the best designed levels ever made.
Most excellent. Just in time for May 4th! Hopefully im done with the quarry soon to start this.
Jedi Survivor was my second best game of 2023 behind Starfield. Excellent game and highly recommended and even more so if you liked and enjoyed Jedi Fallen Order.
The first one I have yet to finish, one of the many games that ended up in the backlog, damn.
Nice
You should definitely get back to the first game so you can go right into Survivor when you’re ready to do so. Both games are excellent.
I took a break from it because it was like Souls and it was kicking my ass. It had not grabbed me yet. Would you say Jedi Survivor is the same, or is that more like an action adventure? Or really more of the same?
It’s the same combat wise but still a great action adventure game. I played and completed both games on normal difficulty which is where the sliders are set in the middle making it a balanced fight. A few fights are definitely challenging but not impossible. If normal is too difficult for you, lower the difficulty setting. I play a lot of games now on easy/story mode unless it’s a game I know I will be great at which doesn’t apply to souls like games because im not good at them at all. Don’t skip the game when you can make the combat easier and more forgiving which in turn will make the game a lot more fun and enjoyable. Not to mention the fact that both games in general are great games.
I liked the first one better but this is still a damn good game. Have they fixed the performance stuff?
There’s easy mode? It’s also easy to farm for ability points and be OP, it’s only the bosses than can be a pain.
