In Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, I'm biding my time, watching a large orange beast known as a Bilemaw take out a group of Stormtroopers and scouts. The creature spews out an unpleasant brown gunk over the unfortunate fellows below, and suddenly the monster's name makes perfect sense. Moments before, the Bilemaw was asleep. But that changed quickly when I used my Force powers to shake things up a bit. Thanks to Cal's new Force Confusion ability, I'm able to influence the beast for a short time, and turn it on nearby enemies. Rising from its slumber, the sludge-spouting animal makes quick work of the Stormtroopers for me… but it's not long before the effect wears off and I'm its next target.
After dodging a barrelling headbutt from the beast, I use the dual-wielding lightsaber stance to deliver a flurry of hits with two separate blades. Every movement from Cal feels more fluid than his previous outing in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, carried with a confidence the protagonist didn't have before. Cal has clearly grown from the Padawan he once was, and his connection to the Force is stronger than ever.
