Star Wars: Jedi Survivor has a new release date: Apr. 28, 2023 – a little over six weeks from its initially planned launch.
On Tuesday, publisher Electronic Arts (EA) and developer Respawn Entertainment made the announcement regarding Star Wars: Jedi Survivor‘s delay.
“For the last three years, the Jedi team here at Respawn has poured its collective heart and soul into Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, and we are proud to say the next chapter in the tale of Cal Kestis is content complete,” reads a statement on Twitter. “In order for the team to hit the Respawn quality bar, provide the team the time they need, and achieve the level of polish our fans deserve, we have added six crucial weeks to our release schedule – Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will now launch globally on [Apr. 28, 2023].”

According to this statement, Star Wars: Jedi Survivor is in the polishing and bug-fixing stage, so all in-game content is complete. Respawn apparently wants the game to be buttery-smooth by launch, hence the little extra development time.
Star Wars: Jedi Survivor‘s initial release date was this coming March, which was announced at the 2022 Game Awards last year. It’s a direct follow-up to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which is currently free on PS Plus for subscribers.
