Contrary to EA’s initial statement earlier this year, indicating that ‘Star Wars: Jedi Survivor’ would only be available on the latest PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles to leverage the cutting-edge tech these devices offer, the company has now revised its stance. During a recent earnings call, EA confirmed that the game will also be launched for PS4 and Xbox One, as reported by The Verge.
“Our development team, buoyed by the enduring popularity of this iconic franchise and in response to community demands, has pledged to extend the Jedi experience to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One,” commented EA CEO Andrew Wilson. ‘Jedi Survivor’ was released for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5 in April, though no concrete release date for the older consoles has been set.
The game ‘Jedi: Survivor’, a direct follow-up to ‘Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order’, was the main focus of BuyTechBlog’s critique about disappointing PC ports earlier in the year. Concerns centered around performance, upscaling, and related issues — all of which could potentially make gamers anxious about its execution on the considerably older Xbox One and PS4 platforms.
