Companions/Followers
  • BD-1: Cal's constant and indispensable companion. BD-1 provides healing via Stim Canisters, projects a holographic map, hacks terminals and droids, fires electro-darts, uses a Koboh Grinder to clear paths, slices certain enemy types, provides ziplines, and collects scans for the Databank. Highly customizable cosmetically.
    BD Unit Droid
  • Merrin (Temporary AI): Joins Cal as an AI-controlled combat companion during specific story missions and exploration segments. Uses powerful Nightsister magick for AoE attacks, traversal assistance (creating green bridges/paths), and can turn invisible to perform takedowns.
    Human (Nightsister from Dathomir)
  • Bode Akuna (Temporary AI): Accompanies Cal on several missions as an AI companion. Fights effectively with blasters and jetpack maneuvers, provides covering fire, and assists with co-op actions like opening heavy doors.
    Human (Mercenary)
  • Other Temporary Story Allies (e.g., Cere Junda, Greez Dritus - contextual): In specific narrative moments or combat encounters, characters like Cere or Greez might offer direct or indirect assistance, though they don't typically function as persistent combat companions in the field like Merrin or Bode.
    Human, Latero
  • DedSec Operatives (Player Controlled): The core gameplay revolves around switching between recruited DedSec operatives. While not AI companions in the traditional sense, the player effectively has a team. In online co-op, other players' operatives act as companions.
    Human (Various)
  • Spider-Bot (Infiltrator/Combat): A deployable gadget that can be remotely controlled to infiltrate areas, perform stealth takedowns, hack terminals, and (if upgraded to combat variant) engage enemies. Essential for reconnaissance and accessing small vents.
    Robot (Small Drone)
  • Drones (CT-Drone, Cargo Drone, News Drone, Riot Drone - Hackable/Summonable): Various drones populate London. DedSec can hack them to use for surveillance, distraction, or combat (e.g., turning an Albion CT-Drone against its owners). Certain operatives (like Construction Worker) can summon specific drones (Cargo Drone for riding/transport).
    Robot (Aerial Drone)
  • Bagley (AI): Serves as DedSec's mission handler and tech support, providing intel, sarcastic commentary, and coordinating operations. Not a physical companion but a constant presence via comms.
    Artificial Intelligence
Key Collectibles

  • Jedha Scrolls: Ancient scrolls found in ruins and settlements on Jedha. Used as currency with specific vendors on Jedha (like Eno Cordova's contact) for unique items or lore.

These entries provide lore about the world, characters, creatures, factions, and the High Republic era, collected in Cal's databank.
  • Seed Pods (for Garden): Found by interacting with specific plants across various planets. These seeds can be given to Pili Walde on Koboh to grow in the garden atop Pyloon's Saloon, eventually yielding more plants for harvesting or cosmetic changes to the garden.
  • Fish (for Aquarium - Skoova Stev): Skoova Stev, a fisherman NPC, can be found at various fishing spots. Talking to him will have him catch a unique fish for the aquarium in Pyloon's Saloon. Each new fish adds to the aquarium's display.

  • Masks: Hidden in distinctive parcel boxes throughout London, often requiring parkour or puzzle-solving to reach. Unlocks cosmetic masks for operatives to wear.
  • ETO Caches (In-game Currency): Small stashes of ETO (the in-game currency) hidden in various locations, often in safes or less accessible areas.
  • Relics (Drink, Darts, Paste-Up locations for Borough Uprising): Activities required to complete borough uprisings, such as playing darts in a pub, drinking at a specific bar, or putting up DedSec propaganda posters. Not traditional collectibles but contribute to area liberation.

colorize Combat & Gear
Weapons Overview
  • Lightsaber (Single Blade Stance): Energy Sword (Versatile Melee)
    Cal's primary weapon. The standard single blade stance offers a balance of attack speed, damage, and defense. Customizable with various emitters, switches, grips, and pommels (cosmetic) and blade colors.
  • Lightsaber (Double-Bladed Stance): Energy Sword (Crowd Control Melee)
    Transforms the lightsaber into a double-bladed staff, excellent for fending off multiple enemies with wide, sweeping attacks. Good for defensive maneuvers.
  • Lightsaber (Dual Wield Stance): Energy Swords (Fast Melee, Offensive)
    Cal wields two lightsabers (his own and a shoto, or Cere's lightsaber temporarily). This stance focuses on rapid attacks and aggressive combos, allowing for quick follow-ups but often sacrificing some defense. Can cancel out of attacks into a parry.
  • Lightsaber (Blaster Stance): Energy Sword & Blaster Pistol (Hybrid Melee/Ranged)
    A new stance where Cal combines lightsaber attacks with a blaster pistol for ranged shots. Allows for unique combos integrating both melee and ranged pressure. The blaster has limited, recharging ammo.
  • Lightsaber (Crossguard Stance): Energy Sword (Heavy Melee, High Damage)
    A new stance where Cal uses a lightsaber with a crossguard (similar to Kylo Ren's), focusing on powerful, deliberate, and heavy-hitting attacks that can break enemy guards. Slower attack speed but high damage output.
  • Force Powers (Push, Pull, Slow, Lift, Slam, Confusion, Tame): Telekinetic/Mental Abilities
    Cal's connection to the Force allows him to manipulate objects and enemies. Push and Pull are used for combat and puzzles. Slow temporarily freezes enemies or objects. Lift and Slam are powerful AoE attacks. Confusion can turn enemies against each other. Tame allows Cal to pacify and ride certain creatures.
  • BD-1's Gadgets (Stim Canisters, Electro-Dart, Grinder, Koboh Grinder, Hacking Droids): Droid Utility/Support
    Cal's droid companion, BD-1, can be upgraded to deploy stim canisters for healing, fire electro-darts to power conduits or stun enemies, hack enemy droids to fight for Cal, and use a grinder to clear obstacles or create paths.
  • Lethal Firearms (Pistols, SMGs, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, LMGs, Grenade Launchers): Conventional Ballistic & Explosive
    A wide variety of standard firearms. Each operative class or specific recruit might have a preference or unique access to certain types (e.g., Spies get silenced pistols, Hitmen get Desert Eagles). Some weapons are DedSec issue, others are Albion or Clan Kelley specific.
  • Non-Lethal Weapons (Shock Weapons): Stun/Disruptive
    Weapons designed to incapacitate rather than kill, such as shock pistols, shock shotguns, and shock SMGs. Useful for players wanting a less lethal playthrough or for recruiting operatives who might be injured by lethal force.
  • DedSec Unique Weapons (e.g., LTL 68P DedSec SMG, DedSec Grenade Launcher): Faction Specific
    Special DedSec-themed versions of weapons, often with non-lethal variants or unique properties, unlocked through tech upgrades or as operative perks.
  • Melee Weapons (Batons, Wrenches, Fists): Close Quarters Combat
    Operatives can engage in melee combat. Some operatives are more proficient or have unique melee weapons/takedowns (e.g., Bare Knuckle Fighter, Construction Worker with Sledgehammer/Wrench).
  • Gadgets (Spider-Bot, AR Cloak, Electro-Fist, Missile Drone, etc.): Tactical/Hacking/Utility
    A wide array of deployable gadgets unlocked via Tech Points. These include various types of Spider-Bots (Infiltrator, Combat), an augmented reality cloak for temporary invisibility, shock traps, electro-fist for powerful melee, and more. Operatives can equip two gadgets.
  • Operative-Specific Weapons/Abilities (e.g., Spy Watch, Nail Gun, Berserker's Shockwave): Unique Character Perk
    Many operative archetypes come with unique inherent weapons or special abilities that cannot be unequipped or changed (e.g., Spy's silenced pistol & car, Construction Worker's nail gun, Anarchist's smoke grenade).
Armor / Gear Sets
  • Outfits (Jacket, Shirt, Pants - Cosmetic Sets): Cal Kestis can equip various cosmetic clothing items. These are typically unlocked as full sets (Jacket, Shirt, Pants) or individual pieces found in chests or purchased from vendors. Examples include the 'Survivor' outfit, 'Jedi' robes, 'Bandolier' set, etc. These are purely cosmetic and do not provide stat bonuses. Colors and materials can often be customized.
  • Ponchos (Removed as primary cosmetic, some outfit components resemble them): While the dedicated poncho slot from Fallen Order is gone, some jacket or shirt components in Survivor have a poncho-like aesthetic.
  • Hairstyles & Beards: Cal's hairstyle and beard can be customized at specific interaction points (e.g., mirror in the Mantis or Pyloon's Saloon) or when finding new styles. These are purely cosmetic.
  • BD-1 Components (Head, Body, Legs, Photoreceptors, Audio Sensors): BD-1's appearance can be customized with various components found in chests or as rewards. These are purely cosmetic.
  • Lightsaber Components (Emitter, Switch, Grip, Pommel, Materials, Colors): Extensive cosmetic customization for Cal's lightsaber(s) at workbenches. Players can collect numerous parts and materials to create a unique look. Blade color can also be changed.
  • Blaster Components (Barrel, Body, Grip - for Blaster Stance): Cosmetic customization for the blaster pistol used in the Blaster Stance. Parts are found or purchased.
  • Perks (Equippable): While not 'armor,' Perks function similarly to Talismans in other RPGs. Cal can find and equip a limited number of Perks that provide significant passive gameplay bonuses (e.g., increased lightsaber damage, more health from stims, faster Force regeneration). Perk slots are unlocked by finding specific characters or completing Jedi Meditation Chambers.
  • Operative Traits (e.g., 'Tough Drunk', 'Physically Fit'): Individual operatives may possess traits that grant them inherent damage resistance or increased health (e.g., 'Tough Drunk' takes less damage while intoxicated, 'Physically Fit' might have more health). This is not traditional armor but contributes to survivability.
  • Gadgets (e.g., Riot Shield Drone - Hypothetical/Similar to existing tech): While no direct wearable armor is equipped, certain gadgets or operative abilities might provide temporary defensive bonuses or shields (e.g., a construction worker's cargo drone could be used as cover, or a specialized drone might project a temporary shield).
  • Clothing (Cosmetic): Clothing choices are primarily cosmetic and do not offer direct armor or damage reduction values. Operatives might appear more 'armored' based on their profession (e.g., an Albion soldier recruit), but this is visual.
Outfits/Customization
  • Outfits (Jacket, Shirt, Pants Components): Cal can equip various cosmetic clothing items, typically divided into Jacket, Shirt, and Pants slots. These are found in chests, purchased from vendors, or earned as rewards. Examples include the 'Survivor' set (default), 'Jedi' robes, 'Outlaw' attire, 'Commander' uniform, and many more. Color palettes for each component can often be changed.
  • Hairstyles & Beards: Cal's hairstyle and facial hair can be customized at specific interaction points (e.g., mirror in the Mantis or Pyloon's Saloon) or when new styles are found as collectibles. Options range from short cuts and stubble to longer hair and full beards.
  • BD-1 Customization (Components & Materials): BD-1's appearance is highly customizable. Players can find or purchase different components for BD-1's Head, Body, and Legs, as well as various material sets (paints/textures) to apply to these components.
  • Lightsaber Customization (Emitters, Switches, Grips, Pommels, Materials, Blade Colors): Extensive cosmetic customization for Cal's lightsaber(s) at workbenches. Players can collect numerous parts for each section of the lightsaber hilt and choose from various metal or material types. Multiple lightsaber blade colors (blue, green, purple, yellow, orange, white, magenta, cyan, indigo - red unlocked in NG+) are available.
  • Blaster Customization (Barrel, Body, Grip - for Blaster Stance): Cosmetic customization for the blaster pistol used in the Blaster Stance. Players can find or purchase different barrels, bodies, and grips, and apply various material finishes.
  • Tops, Bottoms, Outerwear, Headwear, Eyewear, Masks, Gloves, Footwear: Extensive clothing customization for each operative. Players can purchase a wide variety of items from numerous clothing shops scattered around London, reflecting diverse London street styles, subcultures, and professional attire. Items include jackets, hoodies, t-shirts, trousers, skirts, shoes, hats, glasses, etc. Masks are a key cosmetic, with many unique designs to find or buy.
  • Full Outfits: Some pre-set outfits are available, often tied to specific operative archetypes (e.g., Albion uniform for an Albion recruit, construction gear for a worker) or purchasable as cosmetic sets.
  • Weapon Skins & Vehicle Skins: Players can apply various skins and paint jobs to their DedSec weapons and owned vehicles for further personalization. Unlocked through progression, challenges, or store purchases.

help_outline FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
  • Q: Is STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor a direct sequel to Jedi: Fallen Order?
    A: Yes, STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor is a direct sequel, taking place five years after the events of STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order and continuing the story of Cal Kestis and his crew.
  • Q: Do I need to play Jedi: Fallen Order before Jedi: Survivor?
    A: It is highly recommended. Jedi: Survivor heavily builds upon the characters, relationships, and plot threads established in Fallen Order. While there's a recap option, playing the first game provides crucial context and significantly enhances the emotional impact and understanding of the sequel.
  • Q: How many lightsaber stances are there in Jedi: Survivor?
    A: There are five distinct lightsaber stances that Cal can master and switch between: Single Blade, Double-Bladed, Dual Wield, Blaster Stance (lightsaber and blaster pistol), and Crossguard Stance (heavy, powerful attacks).
  • Q: Is Jedi: Survivor an open-world game?
    A: Jedi: Survivor features several large, semi-open world planets that players can explore. These areas are significantly more expansive than in Fallen Order, with more side content and freedom of movement, but the game still guides players through a main narrative path across these planets. It's more 'wide-linear' with large explorable hubs rather than a completely seamless single open world like some other titles.
  • Q: Are there mounts in Jedi: Survivor?
    A: Yes, Cal can tame and ride certain native creatures on planets like Koboh (e.g., Nekko, Spamel) for faster ground traversal and accessing new areas.
  • Q: Does Jedi: Survivor have fast travel?
    A: Yes, players can fast travel between discovered Meditation Points within a planet and also use the Mantis to travel between different planets. Some planets also have specific fast travel networks (like Relter glides on Koboh).
  • Q: What does 'Play As Anyone' mean in Watch Dogs: Legion?
    A: It means that nearly every non-player character (NPC) you see in the game's open world of London can be profiled, recruited, and become a fully playable member of your DedSec resistance. Each character has their own unique combination of skills, traits, weapons, and even daily schedules.
  • Q: Is there a main protagonist, or do you only play as recruited operatives?
    A: There isn't a single, fixed main protagonist in the traditional sense for the base game. You build your team from the citizens of London. However, the 'Bloodline' DLC features Aiden Pearce (from Watch Dogs 1) and Wrench (from Watch Dogs 2) as central playable protagonists for that specific story.
  • Q: Can my operatives permanently die?
    A: The game offers a 'Permadeath' option. If enabled, when an operative is critically injured (e.g., 'killed' in combat), they are permanently lost from your team. If disabled (default), operatives are instead arrested or hospitalized for a period, becoming temporarily unavailable.
  • Q: How does hacking work in Watch Dogs: Legion?
