April 2023 back and not already as originally planned on March 17th. This has been officially announced by EA and Respawn Entertainment.
Why is Jedi: Survivor delayed
Why the shift? In a statement Twitter the people behind Jedi: Survivor announce that they are currently in the final development phase of the game. In order to enable a smooth launch and at the same time meet expectations, the developers now want to take even more time.
So the team wants to use the additional six weeks to fix bugs, increase performance and stability, and generally polish the game. This brings the new release date of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to April 28, 2023.
