Leading up to the release ofStar Wars Jedi: Survivor,Respawn has revealed more details about what the planets will be like. According to a new video in which IGN detailed its five hours of playtime with the game, the sequel will reportedly go beyond the more linear layout of theplanets in the originalStar Wars: Fallen Order. At least some of the new worlds that players will explore are considered “wide open” and appear to give more freedom to players as to what they want to do.
The video detailed Koboh, one of the newplanets featured inStar Wars Jedi: Survivor, providing a better look at how the planet looked in the game. While IGN noted the early stages of Koboh were more restricted, it becomes much more open later on, creating a “world that sprawls out in every direction.” This more open layout allows players to encounter secrets and enemies they might miss if they only stick to the main path.
According to IGN, one of the main objectives during its five hours of playtime with the game was to reach a cantina to repair Cal’s crashed Mantis. However, players could choose to venture in other directions instead, where they would be rewarded with additional discoveries. A few examples mentioned included a cave featuring a boss, a Bedlam Raider camp, and a puzzle room inside a Jedi Chamber. However, it is worth noting that there are reportedly even more areas to discover, but they require additional upgrades in order to access them.
While these new details help give a better idea ofwhat players can expect inStar Wars Jedi: Survivor, there is still more information that Respawn has yet to unveil. Fortunately, the wait for the sequel is nearing an end, as it is almost two months from its April 28 release date. Hopefully, the game will be able to deliver something new for players while keeping it an authenticStar Warsexperience that helped make the first game popular.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivorreleases April 28 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
