Star Wars Jedi: Survivor lets you switch between multiple combat stances, Jedi Academy style.

, game director Stig Asmussen explained the game features"five fully realized [combat] stances" intended to make protagonist Cal Kestis a much more flexible fighter.

"A lot of it depends on the enemy that you're coming across," Asmussen says in the interview."It requires the player to break down the enemies and figure out what the best weapon of choice is." We've seen glimpses of a couple of these stances in the recently revealed trailer, which show Kestis fighting with dual lightsabers and a double-bladed lightsaber made famous by Darth Maul. Other new stances include a"Heavy" stance based around a crossguard saber as used by Kylo Ren."It's weighty; it's beefy. But you have to be very measured on how you use it because the timing windows are longer" Asmussen explains.

One of the most unusual stances lets Kestis wield a lightsaber and a blaster simultaneously, a style which Asmussen claims"Speaks to where we find Cal in this part of the story". Going further, he adds."It's been five years since the first game, and the dark times are still in full swing. He's an unconventional Jedi, and he has to do unconventional things.

While the chat focusses mainly on combat, Asmussen does provide a few details on the broader mechanics of the game. Survivor expands the platforming element of Fallen Order, with Kestis able to use an ascension cable for fast traversal of chasms and cliffs, and the ability to tame and ride mounts, which Asmussen explains will be used"to negotiate and dominate the world.
