Released on April 28, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has been a success for Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment, earning both critical and commercial acclaim. Although it originally skipped the last-gen consoles, the EA first-quarter earnings call revealed that Respawn has PS4 and Xbox One ports on the way for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. As the released EA report brief reveals (https://s22.q4cdn.com/894350492/files/doc_financials/2024/q1/Q1-FY24-Earnings-Release-Final.pdf), the company is looking to continue capitalizing on its financially well-performing franchises, including Star Wars Jedi.

EA is not done with Star Wars Jedi: Survivor yetAs reported by The Verge (https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/1/23816311/star-wars-jedi-survivor-ps4-xbox-one), EA CEO Andrew Wilson announced during the earnings call that Star Wars Jedi: Survivor will come to PS4 and Xbox One, though a release date wasn't mentioned. This is an unexpected turn of events, as in an interview with PLAY Magazine (as reported by Game Rant (https://gamerant.com/star-wars-jedi-survivor-ps4-xbox-one/)) game director Stig Asmussen had previously stated that Jedi: Survivor was skipping last-gen consoles to ensure a "true new-gen experience in the Star Wars universe."
The financial report points to Star Wars Jedi and FIFA as the catalysts for its first-quarter performance. It highlights that in addition to attracting millions of players globally, Jedi: Survivor is also ?seeing players spend more time in-game than its predecessor.? FIFA was noted for ?delivering a record Q1 for the franchise,? and this comes as the series undergoes massive rebranding following the end of EA?s partnership with FIFA. The next entry in the series will be titled EA Sports FC 24.
Respawn has continually been working on the game (https://www.destructoid.com/ea-respawn-working-on-jedi-survivor-fixes-star-wars-pc/) since its launch, with patches being released to improve performance on all gaming platforms. Time will tell how developers will manage to ensure smooth performance on the dated last-gen consoles.
