Is Jedi Survivor a sequel? The end of Fallen Order sets up Cal and pals’ story to continue, leaving the door wide open for a sequel , but equally, the ending was rounded enough to serve as a contained experience. Ambiguous endings are a dime a dozen in the gaming space and there’s understandably more than a few questions around whether Star Wars Jedi Survivor is a sequel or even a prequel.
In this guide, we break down everything you need to know about where Jedi Survivor stands in the chronology of events established in Fallen Order. For more on how EA and Respawn’s new game is shaping up, check out our guide to Jedi Survivor planets and Jedi Survivor enemies.
Is Jedi Survivor a sequel to Fallen Order?
Yes, Star Wars Jedi Survivor slots in as a direct sequel to Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, picking up Cal Kestis’ adventure roughly five years after the events of the first game. The Empire’s grip on the galaxy has tightened. Cal is caught up in the push-and-pull of a seemingly hopeless crusade to protect the galaxy. While a green Padawan in Fallen Order, Cal has matured into a fully-fledged Jedi Knight with the hopes of the Jedi Order resting heavy on his shoulders.
Though a sequel, Star Wars Jedi Survivor is designed as a standalone experience and there’s no requirement whatsoever to have played Fallen Order to understand the story that unfolds. We do, however, recommend dipping into and completing Fallen Order if you have the chance. Not only does it offer a damn fine gaming experience, but fleshes out how Cal and crew came to be and the impetus behind their latest Survivor-shaped adventure.
