Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is coming to PS4 and Xbox One in September

EA will release Star Wars Jedi: Survivor for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 17, 2024.

The last-gen console versions will sell for the suggested retail price of $49.99 and “feature a variety of optimisations aimed at maximizing the hardware capabilities of the consoles”, according to the publisher.

Players who pre-order the game will receive bonus cosmetic items including the Hermit Cosmetic, Hermit Lightsaber Set and Combustion Blaster Set.

The PC version of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will also receive an update in the coming weeks, bringing “enhancements to the game’s technical performance, controls and more, plus a variety of quality-of-life improvements,” EA said.

The company announced plans to bring Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to PS4 and Xbox One last August.

“Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is pure blockbuster entertainment, rooted in a timeless, culture-defining IP,” CEO Andrew Wilson said during an earnings call.

“Our team at Respawn proudly launched this title to critical acclaim and commercial success. Millions of players have already engaged with the game, making this one of the biggest events in the Star Wars galaxy this year.

“Thanks to the strength of this legendary franchise and community demand, our development team has committed to bringing this Jedi experience to PS4 and Xbox One.

“Over the coming year, we will harness the community’s passion and capitalize on key Star Wars franchise moments to drive continued engagement for this incredible game.”

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was released for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC last April. It reached millions of players “within the first few weeks”, according to Wilson, who said EA was “overjoyed” with the game’s early performance.

Despite a six-week delay for polishing, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was released with significant bugs and performance issues.

Nevertheless, the game reviewed strongly, has seemingly performed well commercially, and Respawn has worked to address its various issues with a series of updates, the last of which arrived in January.
