Star Wars Jedi: Survivor holds high ground over Fallen Order

Jedi Survivor sees players step into the role of the now-grizzled Jedi Padawan, Cal Kessis, who must battle throughout the galaxy to preserve the Jedi Order while also battling an ancient and unlikely foe.

Jedi Survivor is largely seen as an improvement over the original, which was already considered one of the best Star Wars games of all time.

Previously, Fallen Order faced criticism for its slow loading times and technical issues, which detracted from the experience. The developers benefited from the more powerful hardware housed inside the PS5 and the Xbox Series S/X. But, perhaps more importantly, Respawn made significant strides in eliminating the issues that once plagued Jedi Survivor. Although the launch could've been handled better, Jedi Survivor has recovered since.

Jedi Survivor's success is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Star Wars franchise, which continues to expand decades after George Lucas started everything.

There are currently several Star Wars games in development at the moment, including a real-time strategy project by the same studio that made Jedi Survivor. But, Jedi Survivor remains the gold standard for video game adaptations that are set in the galaxy, far, far away.
