Welcome to IGN's Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's Wiki Strategy Guide. The sequel to 2019's Jedi Fallen Order, Survivor has you return to the adventure of Cal Kestis, Order 66 survivor and one of the few remaining Jedi alive during the time of the Galactic Empire.

Set five years after the events of the previous game, Cal is now a fully fledged Jedi Knight, but more hunted than ever after his previous entaglements with the Empire and the Sith Inquisitors. With new saber styles, new allies, and more planets to explore, the stakes have never been higher to survive - no matter the cost.
