Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is an absolutely excellent game, with developer Respawn Entertainment pulling from the learning experience of making 2019’s Fallen Order and applying a number of lessons. On top of all that, the writing team pulled out all the stops to create a heartfelt journey for protagonist Cal Kestis, something examines facets of the Jedi in a way most Star Wars media simply doesn’t.
This isn’t to say I haven’t enjoyed other recent Star Wars media. I’m reading through the High Republic books right now which have several great entries, and the Ahsoka series earlier this year exceeded a lot of my expectations! But Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is singularly unique, and if you have an Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5, you need to experience it now that it’s just $35 at Best Buy.
If you buy it from Amazon, you can even get a further discount and snag it for $30, but only on PlayStation 5, as the Xbox version is seemingly out of stock on Amazon.
In myreview of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, I wrote that “Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a fantastic action-adventure game and a testament to what developers can do when taking feedback. Everything here is justfun,and while the more personal tone of the story may not work for everybody, it’s the kind of thing that will bring me back to the vast universe of Star Wars over and over again.”
