Right before Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s official reveal teaser, insider Jeff Grubb dropped information about the Jedi: Fallen Order sequel. This information leaked the game’s subtitle, which has since been confirmed, as well as a release in either February or March 2023. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s cinematic reveal teaser only confirms a release window of 2023, but Grubb’s earlier claims now hold weight and his suggested timeline could be accurate. Still, until anything is confirmed, Grubb’s suggestion is only a rumor.
Taking this rumor at face value suggests its release window is quickly closing. Only a single cinematic teaser was shared this summer, and fans may have to wait before anything else of substance is shown. That said, its enclosing release window would seem to urge more marketing from Respawn and EA in the upcoming months. Fans may receive an actual release date that confirms Grubb’s leaks, but either way, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor needs to step up its marketing if it intends to hit next February or March.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Leaks Suggest News Should Be Imminent
If such leaks are true, it does not seem outside the realm of possibility that news could be shared soon. Having a release plan for either February or March does not leave a large amount of time, so marketing for the game will want to start soon if it does truly release early 2023. Recent delays of highly anticipated games may plague Star Wars Jedi: Survivor as well. It is entirely plausible that a launch in early 2023 was planned, but could not come to fruition.
Hogwarts Legacy’s recent delay is a testament to that, wherein it was previously scheduled for sometime this holiday. The same could be said for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, with Respawn and EA waiting to announce its actual release date until they have something more concrete. Likewise, EA has recently addressed the release window's leak and offered an ambiguous response that would seem to deny its legitimacy. If delays are not expected internally and Grubb’s leaks do pan out, fans should expect a new trailer or information soon.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Could Appear at D23
Time will tell if anything new is shared soon, but one upcoming event seems like the perfect opportunity for EA to reveal more of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor: D23 Expo, a celebration of all things Disney. The D23 Expo runs between September 9 and 11, and since Star Wars will be a big centerpiece for the company, it would make sense to have a quick trailer for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor here. There may not be a release date confirmed yet, but even a quick gameplay demo or other information would be pleasantly received by fans. Otherwise, there is always the possibility that Cal Kestis' rumored Disney+ show could be revealed.
More news will need to be shared eventually, whether its release date is indeed scheduled for early 2023 or not, and an event celebrating Star Wars makes sense. The next stage Respawn and EA could take to announce more about it, if not D23, would likely be Geoff Keighley’s Game Awards this December. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will hopefully provide more news before then, but an appearance at The Game Awards may be in its future regardless. Radio silence has been Respawn and EA’s status quo when it comes to Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, but that spell of silence should end soon depending on when the game will launch.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is expected to launch in 2023 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
