Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is the latest entry in the long line of bad PC ports. The much-anticipated sequel suffers from technical issues including stutters, low performance, high VRAM usage, and much more. While the console port is better than its PC counterpart, it's still not great. Fortunately, console players get a new patch that features many improvements, now live on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
Patch 4 is also planned for PC and expected to arrive later this week. PC players will see fewer traversal hitching as the streaming budgets are updated. Performance improvements to a few VFX will be made as well, and the occlusion behavior for ray tracing will be updated.
