Star Wars: Jedi Survivor does everything that a sequel should do: it improves upon every aspect compared to its predecessor. At its release, one could argue that the Jedi franchise represents the best offering from the Star Wars universe in video games.
Jedi Survivor closely resembles Jedi Fallen Order in terms of gameplay. It retains some influences from the Souls series in its combat mechanics. Generally, I would say that Jedi Survivor is easier than Fallen Order, but, like its predecessor, it still offers challenging battles that may require multiple attempts to conquer.
In combat, a strategic approach is essential. You can't simply attack relentlessly; knowing when to defend is crucial. To be a true Jedi, one must maintain emotional control. Impulsiveness is a trait of the Sith, and you are not one of them.
One notable improvement in Jedi Survivor is the placement of respawn points. As someone not particularly fond of Soulslike games, I dislike repetitive gameplays. Now, the checkpoints are thoughtfully positioned, reducing the need for repetitive actions. Additionally, the game allows players to revisit certain sections of the map to face the same enemies and challenges if desired.
The level designs surpass what we saw in Jedi Fallen Order, although they are not perfect yet. Similar to the previous game, these are small open worlds that you can explore with the appropriate abilities. To be fair, they could use some enhancements, but I appreciate the direction they're taking.
The standout feature of the game is undoubtedly the story. It's a canonical narrative within the Star Wars universe and features intriguing characters. The developers have done an excellent job, and I won't reveal any spoilers, but you'll be surprised by the plot twists.
I've heard that many players experienced significant performance issues, but when I played the game shortly after its release, I didn't encounter any major problems. In my opinion, it's a more polished game than Fallen Order, which I played years after its release and encountered numerous issues.
Star Wars: Jedi Survivor ranks among my top 5 favorite games of 2023 so far. As a Star Wars fan, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend it to anyone, even if you're not a Star Wars enthusiast.
