Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is an action-adventure game, meaning lots of exploration and fighting. However, there’s a deep puzzle-solving element as well. In addition to puzzles in the story path, players can also discover Jedi Chambers – optional puzzle rooms which extensively test their mettle.
As part of IGN Fan Fest, the first Jedi Chamber on planet Koboh is showcased. It involves plugging in batteries and creating bridges, which sounds simple but gets challenging quickly. Design director Jeff Magers revealed that the Chamber is where Jedi of the past would train and test their abilities, and there are Force Echoes and Scans to collect to learn more about them.
While there is a Jedi Chamber that’s critical to the story path, the rest are optional. Completing them awards Perks to customize Cal’s gameplay, though “mostly in combat.” So don’t worry – your efforts won’t be rewarded with a measly poncho (though a deep cosmetic system is promised).
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is out on April 28th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC. Head here for details on the five Combat Stances and how they differ.
