Star Wars Jedi: Survivor trailer confirms release date, and a whole lot more
As we already knew it would, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor got a new trailer during The Game Awards 2022, solidifying its spring release date.
Respawn Entertainment’s sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order will indeed arrive on March 17th, 2023. But the trailer is full of enough footage to make the reveal worth it, even post-leak.
There’s a ton to unpack here—way too much for us to get to all of it—but a few things stand out. Is that tube-man someone important? Is it maybe Starkiller, from the Force Unleashed games? Does Cal using a crossguard lightsaber mean that Kylo Ren totally ripped him off a few decades later? And finally, who told him the beard looked good?
Here’s a bit of the official blurb from EA, which also leaked, but, hey, now it’s official.
Picking up five years after the events of STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order™, Jedi: Survivor is a third person, narrative-driven action-adventure game from Respawn Entertainment, developed in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games.…

The Dark Times are closing in – with enemies new and familiar surrounding him, Cal will need to decide how far he’s willing to go to save those closest to him.
Go Beyond Your Training – The cinematic combat system returns with additional Force abilities and new lightsaber fighting styles.
