Straight from the source
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has a host of issues on PC, and some lingering problems on PS5/Xbox Series X/S. Although I was able to fully complete the game with very little in the way of lost progress, those bugs should be fixed at some point regardless. Thankfully this week’s patch is doing just that on consoles, while Respawn works on a future PC patch.
The PC patch, due out on May 1, apparently deals with “performance improvements for non-raytraced rendering.” That’s not going to even scratch the surface on PC, but the console patches are a bit heftier. Here’s the full rundown on the major things that are being patched on May 2 for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
- Crash fixes (I personally encountered two total on PS5 throughout thr campaign and beyond)
- Performance improvements (likely some framerate fixes for specific areas like Rambler’s Reach)
- Rendering problems (pop-in and character model woes)
- A photo mode T-pose glitch
- A fix for a progress-halting bug in the Chamber of Duality area
Based on my experience, that takes care of most of the console issues, if this patch actually does everything it says. As for the PC debacle, we need to wait a bit longer, it seems.
