Developer Respawn Entertainment confirmed the PS4 and Xbox One launch date for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and revealed pre-order details for the game. Players who pre-order Jedi Survivor on PS4 and Xbox One will receive free in-game cosmetics.
According to Respawn, the old-gen version of the game will feature “a variety of optimizations focused on maximizing the hardware capabilities of the consoles.” Getting the game to run optimally on previous-generation console hardware is said to be a priority for the developer, especially since Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was notorious for its numerous technical issues at launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X.
Respawn was forced to apologize for the game’s performance issues on PC at the time, and the studio subsequently released several updates to optimize the game for all platforms.
The developer also announced on Tuesday that the PC version of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor would be receiving an update in the coming weeks. “This patch brings improvements to the game’s technical performance, controls, and more, plus a variety of quality of life improvements,” the developer said.
EA first confirmed Star Wars Jedi: Survivor for PS4 and Xbox One during an earnings call last August, when the old-gen version of the game was still in early development.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor first released for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X on April 28, 2023. The game is a direct sequel to 2019’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and follows the journey of Jedi Knight Cal Kestis as he flees the clutches of the Empire.
