Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Gameplay Reveal Confirmed for The Game Awards 2022, Merely Hours After Release Date Leak

A gameplay reveal for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is set to take place at The Game Awards 2022. This announcement follows a leaked release date on Monday, suggesting that the highly-anticipated adventure would be available on March 15, 2023, as indicated by a now-removed Steam page. However, EA confirmed that a showcase will be held at Geoff Keighley’s awards show, featuring a new art piece showcasing the return of familiar characters Cal Kestis (played by Cameron Monaghan) and his droid BD-1. The Game Awards 2022 is scheduled for Friday, December 9, at 6am IST.

“I don’t want to give away too much before the show, but I can confirm that this will be the first time Respawn, the developer, will be demonstrating the game to the world. Fans have a lot to look forward to,” said Geoff Keighley, the host and creator of The Game Awards, in an interview with Variety.

“We have been working closely with Respawn and EA on this moment for the past six months.” Taking place five years after the events of Fallen Order, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor follows our protagonist, Kestis, as he continues to evade the Empire and assumes the responsibility of being one of the few remaining Jedi in the galaxy. Based on the brief description and tags on the Steam page, players can expect gameplay similar to the previous installment, including deflecting projectiles, wall running, engaging in lightsaber combat, and a high level of difficulty reminiscent of titles in the souls-like genre.

Although details from the Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Steam page were quickly taken down, new information was spotted by Twitter user Wario64, reinforcing the credibility of the leaked launch date. A report from last month also supports this launch date, as it stated that EA intended to release a major IP in March 2023. In their Q2 financial results presentation, EA disclosed their plan to release several titles before the end of their 2023 fiscal year. The Q4 section specifically mentioned a “Major IP” scheduled to launch before March 31, with the company withholding the reveal until closer to the release date. EA had previously confirmed that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was slated for a 2023 release, and the leaked March 15 launch date aligns with this information.

The leaked details about Star Wars Jedi: Survivor included exciting features such as the return of the cinematic combat system and the opportunity to explore new planets and familiar frontiers within the galaxy. The leaked screenshot also mentioned the ability to acquire new skills, equipment, and abilities, enhancing exploration, combat, and navigation. The delisted DLC mentioned preorder bonuses, including a Hermit outfit, a Hermit lightsaber set, and a combustion blaster set for the Standard Edition. The Deluxe Edition offered two cosmetic packs, “The Galactic Hero” and “The New Hero,” which included BD-1 droid cosmetics. The leaked information also revealed the PC system requirements for the game.

If the leaked information holds true, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will be available on March 15, 2023, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X. As previously mentioned, the gameplay reveal will take place during The Game Awards 2022, starting on December 9 at 6am IST/ December 8 at 4:30pm PT.
