We’ll have much more to say about the game once more of you have actually had the chance to play it.A hot potato: In 2020, digital downloads overtook physical game sales for the first ever. That’s about everything you need to know about Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s release. EA opened up the pre-install floodgates on April 25, and now everyone who pre-ordered the game can download it on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Not only do Jedi: Survivor’s Sarlacc-sized files necessitate an SSD, thus precluding Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions, but depending on your internet speed, a Sarlacc might actually be able to digest you before the game is finished installing.

Comparatively, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is 1/3 of that size at only 55GB. While many gamers anticipated Jedi: Survivor, the game recently acquired the wrong type of attention thanks to the news it would eat up 155 GB of space. However, no matter what version you buy, you will have to sit through a huge install, so to start playing as soon as you can, you might want to forgo the physical disc (heresy, I know) and pre-order the digital version. Even though Jedi: Survivor releases digitally on the evening of the 27th, gamers on the West Coast probably can’t walk into a Target at 9 pm and hope stores shelves are stocked with physical discs. Anyone who pre-ordered a physical copy will either have to wait for it to arrive in the mail or for a retailer to open on the 28th. These release times only apply to digital copies of the game.

The only people who will be able to play Jedi Survivor “early” are those who received a review copy of the game or were fortunate enough to secure a copy of the title from a retailer that broke the street date. For those wondering, this release time schedule means that you will not be able to use the old New Zealand trick to play the game early.
