Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is getting a new patch to address a host of issues with the game's performance. Most notably, the new patch is addressing Jedi: Survivor's notorious traversal hitching issues and improving its ray tracing performance. The patch should already be out for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, with the PC version coming "as soon as possible this week."
When Jedi: Survivor launched last month, the game received severe criticism for its performance issues on the PC port. These issues affected even the highest-end PC hardware configurations. The issues were so bad that EA released a public apology on Twitter on launch day, promising the game would get fixed through an ongoing process of patches.
EA was quick to fulfill its promise and the first patch was released just a few days after Jedi: Survivor launched. It addressed a lot of the game-breaking performance issues and significantly improved performance on most systems. We saw these improvements firsthand in our performance analysis of Jedi: Survivor, noting how the game ran decently well on mid-range and high-end GPU hardware. We even saw surprisingly good results with 8GB cards like the RTX 3070, which exhibited good performance results compared to AMD's higher-capacity RX 6000-series counterparts.
However, the first patch didn't fix everything, and the game is still plagued by a number of minor to moderate performance issues, along with some game-breaking bugs.
Patch 4 for #StarWarsJediSurvivor arrives on consoles on Tuesday, May 9. Patch 4 on PC will deploy as soon as possible this week… stay tuned for updates.Get details on what to expect in these patches: https://t.co/LdyqGh0Azr pic.twitter.com/z5BQxNwboXMay 9, 2023
