Yesterday, a new Star Wars Jedi: Survivor patch went live on PC and console, bringing, according to the patch notes,a variety of performance improvements. Unfortunately, on PC, it seems like things are still not the way they should be.
A couple of comparison videos shared online by MxBenchmarkPC highlight how the true performance improvements only come thanks to DLSS 3 Frame Generation. Generally, performance is on par with the game’s previous version, if not even worse in some instances, and frame times seem to be even worse, so the stuttering issues, such as traversal stuttering, are still present to ruin the experience.
It is a shame that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is in such a bad state, as the game is a solid action-adventure game that innovates and expands the formula of its predecessor while featuring a compelling story and characters that fit well in the Star Wars universe. You can learn more about the game by checking Kai’s review.
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. 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.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S worldwide. The game will launch on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the future.
