Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a singleplayer action game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. This singleplayer game is set in the Star Wars universe and takes place five years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

It was released worldwide on April 28, 2023.

The game at release suffers from a large amount of shader and asset-streaming related stutter in addition to poor performance on powerful hardware. The PC port currently suffers a camera animation stutter that presents as a lack of smoothness when panning the camera.

  1. 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
  2. Please note that the system requirements on storefronts and even on the EA website list the Recommended CPUs as 4c/8t, meanwhile those are 6c/12t parts. Specifications on storefronts has not been updated in quite some time, so assuming the system requirements on the game's official site to be true.
