As you’ll probably remember, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is one of those AMD-sponsored titles that only included FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.1 at launch. Thankfully, modder PureDark added DLSS 2 (Super Resolution) and DLSS 3 (Frame Generation) support, massively improving both performance and image fidelity. Now, with the native DLSS 2 Super Resolution implementation, that part of PureDark’s mod won’t be needed any longer, though owners of RTX 40 Series GPUs will still be interested in the Frame Generation mod to achieve higher frame rates.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor launched on April 28th, garnering widespread acclaim despite the aforementioned performance issues. The game earned an 8.3/10 score in Wccftech’s review penned by Kai.
While Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was a surprise journey when it was first released, the time spent apart hasn’t made Cal Kestis’ adventures any less enjoyable. A similar framework in unfamiliar territories helps to establish Jedi: Survivor as a quality sequel to the original release. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor still plays it safe in comparison to the prior game. It may be difficult to give Jedi: Survivor full marks for its individuality, but compared to the predecessor focused on Cal’s time as a Jedi Padawan, each title can stand up on its own merits, and Jedi: Survivor polishes up much of the experience as it propels the narrative ever forward on Cal Kestis’ journey to Tanalorr.
