Star Wars Jedi: Survivor started bad. The game received mostly negative reviews on Steam, with only 34% of over 2,000 reviews being positive. It’s almost on the same level as a disaster. The last of us part one The PC port was released in March and for the same reason: poor performance.
As the pre-launch footage showed, the game struggles to maintain a consistent frame rate even on a system equipped with an RTX 4090. Steam reviews claim frame rates of around 30 frames per second (fps) at 1440p with a RTX 3090, and many say the game consumes more than 19 GB of video memory with ray tracing enabled.
Poor performance, especially with ray tracing on, seems to be the key problem Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The game includes AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) 2, but the high VRAM requirements seem to cause crashes and crashes, regardless of the enhancement feature.
Another common problem that affects users is stuttering during the transition. Like the previous game, star wars jedi: fallen order, survived it is built using Unreal Engine 4. Moving between areas, especially on a large planet like Koboh, results in a massive frame rate drop as the game struggles to load new assets.
in ours Star Wars Jedi: Survivor review, we praise the game and the experience it offers on consoles, though we did note minor technical issues that are still present on the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions. The PC version only seems to amplify these issues.
We tested early parts of the game with RTX 4090 and Core i9-13900K and can confirm relatively low performance and constant flickering during transition. We will have to continue testing larger areas of the game to see if the issues get worse as the game progresses.
Developer Respawn promised a Day 1 patch to fix major issues, but the team doesn’t seem to have included some key optimizations. The developer says it plans to release patches that fix bugs, improve performance, and add more accessibility features “in the coming weeks.”

Our first patch will arrive on launch day on all platforms. In the coming weeks, we will be rolling out patches that:

After a series of negative reviews, Respawn released a statement saying they would be looking into the status of the PC port:
Unfortunately, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor it is not an isolated incident. It joins a long list of games that have had performance issues on PCs released this year, including Hogwarts Legacy, The Return, and Resident Evil 4 remake. The common thread between all of them is crashes and crashes due to high VRAM requirements.
This new wave of games has pushed VRAM requirements far beyond what we’ve expected in recent years, with some titles consuming 16GB or more with ray tracing enabled. Because of this, even high-end graphics cards like the RTX 4080 have trouble maintaining a consistent frame rate.
Aside from simply having more VRAM to take advantage of, this problem falls mostly in the lap of the developer to find ways to save on VRAM requirements or reduce the scope of the game. As things stand right now, it’s hard to believe that most major PC releases will release in playable condition, even on the most expensive PC money can buy.
