Survivor runs with that idea, exploring the concept of fear and what it means for someone like Cal, a survivor of both a war and a genocidal attack on his people, to live with the ever-present shadow of fear.

The events of the High Republic teach the Jedi that fear is the path to evil-the other emotions are just stepping stones along it. Not any of the other emotions a Jedi is supposed to unhealthily suppress. And that may be the case, but we also know this time period will culminate in the Jedi Order led by Master Yoda, who preached to a young Anakin Skywalker that 'fear is the path to the Dark Side.' Not anger. The comics describe The High Republic as the golden age of the Jedi. The High Republic is a fascinating time period for Survivor to connect its story to given what we know has transpired between that era and the events of post-Revenge of the Sith. Now Playing: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Review - Fear Itself Seeing a potential home that's free of the Empire's influence, Cal sets about reassembling the Mantis crew for another galactic scavenger hunt, but his efforts are waylaid by a former High Republic Jedi who-having originally discovered Tanalorr decades prior and bid his time until the right moment-wants Tanalorr for his own purposes.īy clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's After a daring escape from Imperial authorities, protagonist Cal finds himself on the planet Koboh, where he discovers a High Republic Jedi protocol droid who carries a clue to reaching Tanalorr, a supposedly unreachable mythical planet. Survivor takes place about five years after the events of Fallen Order, with the Mantis crew having gone their separate ways to pursue different goals in a galaxy increasingly dominated by the Galactic Empire. Survivor is a very well-written tale about overcoming fear, and it's the Jedi story I've wanted for a long time. Cal's quest takes him to new corners of the galaxy, but the most compelling journey he makes is an introspective one. Exhilarating lightsaber combat and physics-defying platforming puzzle challenges remain the best part of Respawn's latest Star Wars game, but Survivor also makes big swings with its story this time around. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor builds on the already-winning formula of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by making Cal Kestis a more powerful and resourceful Jedi Knight, while also upping the stakes and the challenges he's facing.
