Is Jedi Survivor a Remake?

STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is set to be one of the biggest releases of the year, following in the footsteps of the 2019 title, Jedi: Fallen Order. The new installment to the beloved franchise shares many characters and plot points with the previous title, prompting some to speculate where Jedi: Survivor falls in the series.

Is Jedi: Survivor a remake of a prior installment? We’ve received a solid amount of information about the upcoming release, which launches later this week on April 28. Let’s go over the details.

Will Jedi: Survivor Be a Remake?

Simply put, no, Jedi: Survivor is not going to be a remake. Rather, the new title marks an entirely new entry to the STAR WARS franchise and the Jedi series.

With the launch of the new title, we’ll see a lot more of our returning protagonist, Cal Kestis, as well as other characters making a comeback following the events of Jedi: Fallen Order. Not to mention, we’ll be introduced to brand-new characters like Bode Akuna, who will serve as an ally to Cal in Jedi: Survivor.

In light of the game’s upcoming release, however, its senior producer, Blair Brown, has stated that he would love to see a remake of Dark Forces. The game was originally released in 1995, making it a great candidate for a future remake.

Is Jedi: Survivor a Sequel?

Yes, Jedi: Survivor is a direct sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order, which was released back in 2019.

The new entry is set to take place five years after the events that occurred in the previous installment, as detailed by STAR WARS. In the upcoming release, the returning main character, Cal Kestis, is no longer a Padawan and has since become a Jedi Knight.

Alongside his allies, Cal must hone his skills as the galaxy plunges further into darkness. Jedi: Survivor is set to offer unique biomes, new enemies, and a list of challenges to take on as the Dark Times close in on the budding hero and the galaxy at large.

With a compelling storyline that both rivals and continues what started in Jedi: Fallen Order, Jedi: Survivor has certainly earned the anticipation backing its release later this week.
