Want to know if Star Wars Jedi Survivor is canon? Disney purchased Lucasfilm and subsequently the ownership of the Star Wars back catalogue in 2012. Two years later, the two companies announced that a lot of legacy content would be declared non-canon under the “Star Wars Legends” banner. They also announced that all future Star Wars stories would be connected and on an equal canon level as the films, with guidance from the Lucasfilm Story Group.
So is Star Wars Jedi Survivor canon? In the run-up to the Star Wars Jedi Survivor release date, you may wish to learn more about the RPG game, such as whether or not Star Wars Jedi Survivor multiplayer modes exist this time. But for now, let’s answer that all-important question.

We are less than two weeks from the premiere of HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us and you could say fans of the franchise are getting pretty hyped. With Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal as Joel and Game of Thrones standout Bella Ramsey as Ellie, this post-apocalyptic zombie drama has all the makings of a hopefully instant classic–something that is quite rare for video games brought to life as movies or TV shows. There’s no doubt, though, that fans are going to be worried about changes being made to the story. And yes, changes are made–but with good reason–over the course of the first season, which covers the first game.
Speaking to GameSpot, TV Guide, and Metacritic, The Last of Us game writer and co-director Neil Druckmann–who is also a writer and executive producer on the show–was quick to explain. “There’s things that work in the game that would just not work in the show,” he said. “The game is about–sometimes–immersion and these continuous sequences through continuous space and time to get you to feel like you’re that character. And the show, if we were to shoot it exactly like that, it would just get boring, the violence would get rote in a way that it doesn’t in the game because there’s certain mechanics and stuff that really affect you.”
It’s hard to argue with Druckmann’s reasoning here. While the games are a fascinating and creepy dive into Joel and Ellie’s experiences in a zombie-filled wasteland, a camera simply following them around while they kill off clickers and anyone that gets in their way can only be entertaining for so long when you’re not personally controlling their actions. What about the story changes, though? For showrunner Craig Mazin (Chernobyl), that was something they were constantly working hard to figure out.

Some Destiny 2 lore theorists say a weapon’s recently-gained sentience should now be construed as cannon in the game world. Telesto recently began shooting out starburst patterns before seemingly taking over the game’s official Twitter account. Though Bungie developers say the issues with Telesto have now “been resolved,” the weapon itself should now be canonically known to be capable of sentience and may be something the space game‘s narrative team chooses to reference in the future.
