The following guide is a collection of the most important information about Star Wars Jedi Survivor that will help you complete the game in 100%. The walkthrough will help you get through all the most difficult stages of the game. We explain stealth attacks, the Force attacks as well as blocking and dodging.

Star Wars Jedi Survivor: Interactive maps

We’ve prepared an interactive map to all five planets in Jedi Survivor:

  1. Coruscantthis is the first bigger location in the game. You will visit it in the first hours of the game, but you can also revisit it later in the campaign.

Star Wars Jedi Survivor: Tips and tricks

  1. Don't try to reach every place right away. Some locations and collectibles are initially inaccessible - you must first unlock a specific skill or piece of equipment.
  2. Practice parrying strikes. It is very useful not only in avoiding damage, but it also allows you to go on the counterattack.
  3. Watch out for red attacks. They differ from regular attacks in that you can't parry or block them in any way.
  4. Look for Stim Canisters. They are the most important category of secrets, because they increase the number of healing charges.
  5. Exchange collectibles at merchants. Each of them accepts a certain type of secrets and you can exchange them to acquire, for example, new perks or lightsaber parts.
  6. Unlock new shortcuts. They are useful when you want to return to familiar locations and meditation points to rest and save.

You can find more tips for beginners on the Tips and Tricks page.
