Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Deluxe Edition - XBOX Series X, XBOX Series S [Digital]

One of the best Star Wars titles to come out in a very long time! If you love Star Wars and action role-playing games absolutely pick this one up.

Star Wars Jedi Survivor continues the story of its predecessor with a 5 year time jump. The story takes the protagonist Cal Kestis to new planets, meet new characters, and continues his journey as a Jedi during the time of the Empire. Story - 8/10 - The story of the game is compelling as it pushes Cal's adventure in a new direction. His companions from Fallen Order are still present, but do not start the game with him (besides BD-1). I think the story does a great job of bringing something new to the Star Wars universe that has not be done before. It also ties into some of the Star Wars lore that was only in books/comics up until now. Personally I feel that the story of Fallen Order trumps this story, but overall still enjoyed it. Gameplay - 9.5/10 - The game plays out just like Fallen Order. The worlds are bigger and at times can be overwhelming if you are looking for a linear campaign. The combat is smooth as before and the game plays out similarly to an Assassin's Creed game. Performance - 8/10 - As someone who played the game the first day there are some bugs that in time will likely be resolved. The game looks fantastic, for the most part. There are times where the framerate dramatically will drop for a few seconds. It truly is a next gen experience, but still has issues. Everything Else - 10/10 - From the advancement in customization to the new "Force Tears" scattered across planets the game welcomes players to get lost in the game for hours outside of the main story. There is plenty to explore and nearly 20 "legendary" bosses to find and conquer in the game. I spent upwards of 60 hours in the game and still have yet to 100% my first playthrough. Summary - 9/10 Jedi Survivor is what you hope for in a sequel by keeping everything that was great before and expanding on it. I played Fallen Order over again before jumping into Survivor and it was a near seamless transition with the controls. The features people wanted were added (besides keeping Mantis customization) and new lightsaber stances give players the chance to hone their skills how they want. I fell in love with the game from the get go. Once you accept that you will come across bugs the rest this game has to offer will satisfy you. Play if you like: Star Wars Fallen Order, Assassin's Creed games, Souls/Elden Ring games, or if you are a Star Wars fan.

This game expands on what was good about the first one and improves on the overall gameplay mechanics. The map from bd kinda still sucks but exploring has never been more fun.

[Employee of bestbuy] This game is amazing if you are a Star Wars fan and looking for a great sequel to Jedi Fallen Order. Story, gameplay, and customization are all great and an awesome continuation feom the previous title!

Fun gameplay, great writing, beautiful graphics. I am so glad to have finally had a solid solo RPG, and the improvements from the first game are noticeable.
