Planet Exploration
Coruscant
Cal's journey in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor begins on the planet Coruscant, which serves as the capital of the Galactic Empire. This world is entirely covered by a vast urban cityscape, comprising mammoth skyscrapers filled with Stormtroopers and security droids. Players can revisit this planet later in the game to collect any missed items during the opening mission.
Koboh
After leaving Coruscant, Cal crash lands on the abandoned planet Koboh, which becomes his base throughout the game. This planet is teeming with lush forests, rivers, and dangerous creatures, as well as hostile bandits who pose a threat to Jedi.
Shattered Moon
Shattered Moon orbits Koboh and is home to an abandoned science lab that has been taken over by both bandits and stormtroopers. Cal visits this area twice during the game to retrieve vital information related to his quest.
Jedha
Jedha, a harsh desert planet first seen in Rogue One, becomes the perfect place for Cal to preserve the legacy of the Jedi away from the prying eyes of the Empire. This planet is one of the largest in the game, filled with intense sandstorms and scorching sun, making it inhospitable for most creatures. Cal reunites with some old allies at a hidden base on Jedha, making it a significant part of his journey.
Nova Garon
Nova Garon, the smallest playable area of the game, is an asteroid that houses the Imperial Security Bureau's massive base, including loading docks and housing facilities.
Tanalorr
Tanalorr is a mythical planet and a potential safe haven for the Jedi from the Galactic Empire. It has remained hidden for centuries and was once home to the Jedi Order. However, it has suffered a tragic history after Jedi Knight Dagan Gera planned to use it as a base to train younglings. Only a few people know how to reach this exotic planet, making it the final destination unlocked in Jedi: Survivor.
