Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is an action-adventure game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. A sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (2019), it was released on PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on April 28, 2023. The game received generally favorable reviews

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor takes place five years after the events of Fallen Order. The game follows Jedi Knight Cal Kestis (Cameron Monaghan), as he fights the Empire while searching for a place to hide from them. Cal's allies include: Jedi Master Cere Junda (Debra Wilson); former pilot of the Stinger Mantis Greez Dritus (Daniel Roebuck), BD-1 (Ben Burtt), a small droid; Merrin (Tina Ivlev), one of the last surviving members of the Nightsister clan of Dathomir; and Bode Akuna (Noshir Dalal), a Rebel fighting for the safety of his daughter Kata (Tajinae Turner). Other characters include Jedi Master Eno Cordova (Tony Amendola), BD-1's former owner, now helping Cere recover the Jedi Archive; and ZN-A4 (Kendal Rae), a droid from the High Republic Era formerly owned by Jedi Master Santari Khri (Tracy Ifeachor).

Cal fights many enemies during his journey, such as the Pau'an Senator Daho Sejan (T. J. Ramini); Imperial Commander Lank Denvik (Gideon Emery); the Ninth Sister (Misty Lee); who's trained by the Sith Lord Darth Vader (Scott Lawrence) as part of the Imperial Inquisitors program; High Republic Dark Jedi Dagan Gera (Cody Fern), who seeks to reach Tanalorr; and his right hand man: the Gen'Dai Rayvis (D. C. Douglas), the leader of the Bedlam Raiders. Temuera Morrison voices Boba Fett, having portrayed the character several times previously.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor maintains many of the gameplay mechanics from its predecessor with new elements. In the lightsaber combat, Cal Kestis has access to five different stances, each with its unique features. He can use the single blade and double blade stances from the previous game, Fallen Order. While the special dual-wield single blade attack is expanded into its own fully playable lightsaber stance, the dual-wield stance was also intended to be a playable stance in Fallen Order, but it was only included as a special attack due to time constraints. A new stance has also been added that mimics the Kylo Ren-style crossguard lightsaber, but it requires players to pay attention to timing windows to use it effectively, particularly when blocking and parrying enemy attacks. The second new stance is the blaster stance which allows the player to use a lightsaber and blaster combo for both close and ranged attacks. These different stances are designed to be used to combat specific types of enemies which Asmussen says will make the player "figure out what the best weapon of choice is". A new Force stasis ability, similar to the one used by Kylo Ren in The Force Awakens, allows the player to freeze enemies and blaster bolts in mid-air.
