At Star Wars Celebration, Respawn Entertainment revealed that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is the next chapter in Cal Kestis’ saga. Led by Stig Asmussen, the studio is continuing Cal’s journey through new stories, worlds, characters, and battles that expand the Fallen Order universe while staying true to its core energy and momentum.
The title is scheduled for release on current-generation hardware in 2023, promising a deeper, more immersive experience for players. Asmussen explained that even before Jedi: Fallen Order finished shipping, the team had mapped out Cal, BD-1, and the crew’s next quest. For Jedi: Survivor, Respawn is collaborating closely with Lucasfilm Games to honor the legacy of the prior game while pushing forward with cutting-edge technology to deliver more dynamic combat sequences. The team aims to broaden Cal’s arc with a cinematic narrative that reflects his increasingly mature and shadowed path, hinting at a story that endures through trying times. Details about the game would continue to unfold over the year, inviting fans to witness the next chapter in Cal’s fight against the Empire.
Set five years after the events of the previous adventure, Jedi: Survivor places Cal Kestis at the edge of the galaxy’s crackdown, where he must outpace the Empire’s relentless search for remaining Jedi. BD-1 remains a trusted companion, joining Cal as he encounters a cast of new characters and familiar faces on a journey that tests his resolve. Surviving in this perilous era requires Cal to master fresh Force abilities and adapt his existing skills while navigating moral choices that shape his path forward. The galaxy is dangerous, but hope endures as long as a spark of light can be found in the darkest corners of space, and Cal’s determination drives him to push beyond previous limits in pursuit of freedom.
Lucasfilm Games’ Doug Reilly underscored the excitement around bringing this chapter to life, highlighting the collaboration with Respawn to continue Cal Kestis’ saga. He noted that fans worldwide can anticipate a new entry that blends compelling storytelling with expansive world-building and refined action on modern platforms. Jedi: Survivor will be available on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC, with a 2023 launch window that aligns with the growing expectations for next-gen experiences and high-fidelity visuals that players can feel as they step into a galaxy far, far away.
