There are many controls on Star Wars Jedi: Survivormuch more than I expected to go into the game Fallen Order. That’s largely because Cal Kestis is already a force to be reckoned with in this Star Wars sequel, carrying many of his abilities from his previous adventures. This is in addition to the new lightsaber stances that have been added to the game. Here we collect the controls and bindings as companions for your time in a galaxy far, far away.
It’s worth noting that this controls guide is a work in progress and doesn’t have all the controls yet. That’s because I’m still fighting through the game and haven’t unlocked everything yet (ie all stances, abilities, etc.) that have appropriate inputs. I’m working on updating it as soon as possible.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Checklist
The controls listed below are all standard PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S controls. You can also use a gamepad on PC, and your default inputs will depend on the type of controller you’re using. However, they should match one of the lists below.
It’s also worth noting that you can fully remap controller inputs on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Literally. If you want a bumper to be an attack entrance, you can. If you want to dodge with D-Pad Left, you can do that too.
