There are callbacks to the prequel trilogy galore, and they all worked for me in the context of the narrative. Many of the game’s previous enemy types return along with a handful of new ones. The central quest takes place during the height of the Empire’s power, and they are everywhere. The game features multiple locations, all of which are large with two of them being gigantic. There is so much side content that I could see 35 hours being the minimum to get a 100% completion. I focused on the main quest and wrapped things up in just over 15 hours with 52% of the game complete. Jedi: Survivor is able to blend the two, with excellent in-engine cutscenes that are paired with some of the best platforming and combat around. Too often the “cinematic masterpiece” titles feel focused on being a great experience to watch more than they are to play. The fact that it does that while never sacrificing gameplay is one of its greatest strengths. I won’t go into any further story beats whenever possible, just know that this game is dense and hit all the right emotional beats for me. It is a bombastic opening with immense scale and the ambition needed to make it all work. Cere, Greez, and Merrin are nowhere to be seen early on, as you attempt to steal sensitive data from the Empire. Five years have passed since the previous title and Cal has continued working with Saw Gerrera’s rebel fighters.
How has the gameplay changed, and has it improved? Has the ambition matched the increase in scope? Without spoiling anything, is the story a worthy follow-up, and does this game justify its enormous 139gb install size on Series X? Cal Kestis: Terrorist Jedi: Survivor is a massive game, which can be a bad thing if it’s not handled well. Throughout 15+ hours you’ll slice, leap, force pull, push, and acrobat your way through a gorgeous and deadly galaxy. 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. Five years have passed since the first game. STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is bigger and better in every way than 2019’s Fallen Order. It is a massive improvement over my playthrough, feeling close to a native 60fps at all times. *Update – The Day Zero patch has fixed performance across the board.
