Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Global Launch Timings Revealed: Details

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is gearing up to release this week and before then we got the worldwide release times for the same. In a tweet, publisher EA confirmed that the game would launch globally at the same time, eliminating the need to change locations to New Zealand to play early – as seen on the day of the launch of Elden Ring. The Cal Kestis-led galaxy-building adventure will unlock on April 28 at 9:30 a.m. IST India / 9:00 p.m. PT US / 5:00 a.m. BST UK. EA’s detailed infographic reveals multiple locations, with timings being direct conversions. The publisher also dropped preload times earlier this week for players who pre-ordered Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

Preload times for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor change depending on platform – with PC gamers getting a long head start. Those on Steam or the EA app can download and keep the game ready for launch day tonight, April 25 at 8:30 p.m. IST in India / 8 a.m. PT in the US. Meanwhile, PS5 and Xbox Series S/X players can preload it on April 26 at 9:30 a.m. IST / April 25 at 9 p.m. PT.

This advanced three-day download window is a smart move, as the game’s file size is massive – 155GB on PC, 147GB on PS5, and 140GB on Xbox Series X. The Xbox Series S version only does 44 GB because it lacks 4K textures. A Reddit post from last week revealed that even the physical CD version will require an additional download, making the whole concept of insert disc and play futile. It’s no surprise, given that PS5 game discs can only hold 100GB of files, but surely EA could have chosen to make it a two-disc version.

System Requirements For Star Wars Jedi: Survivor PC

Developer Respawn Entertainment dropped the system requirements for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor earlier this year, which are detailed below. As mentioned earlier, you will need 155 GB of storage space on an SSD and Windows 10 as your operating system.

Five years after the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Cal Kestis has now become a mighty Jedi Knight, still continuing his crusade against the oppressive Empire. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor tweaks the core mechanics of its prequel by adding new Dark Souls-inspired tools such as fast travel, allowing easy movement through its various biomes. It also expands combat by adding combat stances, including dual wielding, Kylo Ren’s tanky and hard-hitting “crossguard” style, dual blade, and more. Pre-ordering the game also grants bonus items such as the hermit-themed outfit, lightsaber, and a Combustion Blaster set. Special skins for your adorable BD-1 droid can be acquired by pre-ordering the Deluxe Edition.
