When Does Jedi Survivor Take Place in the Star Wars Timeline?

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. But how long, exactly?

Cal Kestis’ adventure in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor takes place in a time period to which Disney is currently paying a lot of attention.

Here’s everything we know about when Jedi: Survivor takes place in the Star Wars timeline.

When Does Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Take Place?

Star Wars Jedi Survivor takes place in 9 BBY (Before Battle of Yavin). This is the same year that the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ show events took place.

Interestingly, players can get their hands on some Obi-Wan inspired cosmetics in Jedi: Survivor right now! Could this hint at a connection with the iconic Jedi?

For those unaware, the Battle of Yavin is the Rebel Alliance’s attack on the Death Star in Episode IV.

How Long Is Jedi: Survivor Set After Fallen Order?

Jedi: Survivor is also set 5 years after the events of the first game, Jedi: Fallen Order. The first game to feature the young Jedi was set 5 years after Order 66 and the conclusion of Episode III.

That means that Cal Kestis has now been fighting against the Empire for half a decade. And while his hope is to rebuild the Jedi Order, the Empire’s power has only grown in that time.

When Is Jedi: Survivor Set Compared to the Films?

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is set in 9 BBY, one year after the events of Solo: A Star Wars Story. It is set in the same year as the Obi-Wan Kenobi show.

The game therefore takes place after Episode III: Revenge of the Sith but before Episode IV: A New Hope, bridging the gap between the prequel and original trilogies.
