Star Wars Jedi: Survivor trailer shows one hell of a force-enabled beating

Time to look up and head to the stars; we're finally getting Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. With the release date of March 17, 2023, it's safe to say we don't have to wait light years.

It's been over three years since the release of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Just when I thought I'd had my Star Wars fill from all the shows, Disney seems to be popping out; Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has hooked me again. 

The Game Awards 2022 showcased the action-packed trailer, and boy, is there a lot to pick through. The Order is gone, and betrayal is rife, so what can you expect from this new installment? 

While it picks up from where Fallen Order leaves off, the trailer leaves a lot to be seen. From deserts to starships to forests, it shows off all the fantastic settings I'd hope for. 

One thing's for sure; the challenging combat seems to have stayed the same. The enjoyable combination of soulsborne and RPG style is still at the heart of this game. This is great to see, as that's what attracted so me to Fallen Order in the first place. 

The fights shown in the trailer seem to be dynamic and engaging; and makes it look like you're stepping into the cloth-wrapped sandals of a Jedi. 

Whatever may be the case, I'm finally ready to wreak havoc again, even if almost every other opponent in the teaser shown seems to be twice my size.
