Controls for STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor – PS5 and Xbox Series X|S

by Mike Alexander / Articles, Game Controls & Hotkeys, Star Wars Game / 27 Sep 2023

I always wanted to be a Jedi. Plenty of people do, they made an entire theme park around allowing people to live in that fantasy for a few hours. However, nothing has gotten me close to feeling like a Jedi (besides walking around Galaxy’s Edge), as Jedi: Fallen Order.

That game really nailed it when it came to delivering an experience that felt powerful, but not particularly easy. I really love Jedi: Fallen Order, and when the credits rolled on that, I suddenly felt empty. When would I get to go on another adventure with Cal and BD-1? When would I have another opportunity to abuse battle droids with my force powers and sick lightsaber skills?

Soon. The answer was soon.

The action-packed sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order, called Jedi: Survivor, is almost here. It features a more confident, more efficient version of Cal Kestis, and it takes him on an adventure across the galaxy, to brand-new planets that have never been seen before in any kind of Star Wars media. It’s… going to be awesome.

Like its predecessor, Jedi: Survivor looks like it will be mechanically complex, and it even adds a number of new features that contribute to the game’s depth and the skill level required to enjoy it fully. I’m probably going to need a refresher more than once to keep all of the new actions straight.

And if you think you might too, then I have something here for both of us. It’s the Jedi: Survivor controls guide for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Just because the controls have been optimized for a gamepad, doesn’t mean you’ll get them right away! Take the time to re-write your muscle memory with this controls guide, and make sure your interplanetary adventure goes as smoothly as possible.
