Difficulty Differences and How to Change Difficulty

Jedi Survivor offers multiple difficulty levels to give players just the right amount of challenge that fits their preferred playstyle. Read on to find out more about each difficulty and what is the best difficulty!

All Difficulty Differences

Story Mode

Story mode is intended for players who either attempting to perform a speedrun or players who want to the scenic route and appreciate the story, game design, combat mechanics of the game without worry of constantly dying. Combat is most forgiving on this difficulty giving players a way to adjust to the mechanics of action melee.

Jedi Padawan

Jedi Padawans are considered to be the novices of the Order, making this difficulty level the perfect mix for people who want to start out with the action RPG relatively easy but still providing a good enough challenge.

Jedi Knight

Jedi Knight is closer to what players would consider to be a balanced Normal Difficulty. Combat offers a challenge but is still forgiving enough to not frustrate a fairly new player. This difficulty is for players who feel that Story Mode takes out some enjoyment for being too easy.

Jedi Master

Jedi Master offers the most balanced experience in terms of combat wherein parry timing and incoming damage are set not to be more advantageous to either sides. For fans of the Souls franchise, this setting would typically be the default difficulty.

Jedi Grand Master

Jedi Grand Master is a difficulty meant only for those strong in the Force. This difficulty is unforgiving, virtually allowing you to parry only at the right window otherwise suffer the full damage an enemy can deal.

What is the Best Difficulty?

Story Mode difficulty is best for players who only want to play the game to enjoy the story. While on the other end of the spectrum is Jedi Grand Master if you're a veteran of melee combat-centric games such as the Dark Souls series and want a tough challenge. Players can change the difficulty of the game at any point. This means that you can adjust the difficulty to the level you're most comfortable with whenever you want.

If you're unsure, it would be best to begin the game in Jedi Padawan or Knight difficulty to gauge your skill and adjust accordingly.

How to Change Difficulty

Can be Changed Anytime in the Menu

Much like Jedi Fallen Order, Jedi Survivor allows you to change difficulties at any given point in the game. This is partly because there is no loot or reward that scales with difficulty. The only mechanic that scales with difficulty are the three mechanics mentioned above.
