Star Wars Jedi: Survivor comes packing a significant upgrade to its predecessor’s customization, exploration, and other features – including a whole new skill tree for you to dig into on your journey through the galaxy. This eagerly anticipated sequel boasts a total of three main skill types and nine total trees to invest in, meaning that you’ll have an opportunity to build main character Cal Kestis however you’d like. Luckily, if you’re feeling any remorse about where you’ve put your points, you can easily respec them and try again – for a price.

However, before we tell you how to respec, keep in mind that you can earn skill points infinitely, so you can technically max out every skill tree by the end of the game. This means that most of your choices won’t hamper your progress too much, especially if you’re exploring thoroughly, scanning everything with BD-1, and uncovering hidden skill points all around the biomes. Still, if you’re regretting a skill or two, let’s respec them, shall we?

How to respec in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

You can respec very easily in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, so don’t be too alarmed if you’ve made a bum choice or two. Simply visit any meditation point in the game and open up your skill trees. At the bottom-left of the screen, you’ll see a button that you can press that says Reset All Skills, allowing you to respec all of your skill points.

The first time you respec your skills will be entirely free, so you won’t have to worry much about trying some new things early in the game.

However, keep in mind that all subsequent respecs will cost you one skill point from your total earned, meaning that if you started with 10 to use, you’ll have one subtracted, leaving you with only nine to spend respeccing. Since points are relatively easy to come by throughout the adventure, this shouldn’t deter you from occasionally resetting your skills if you really need to, but you probably shouldn’t make it a habit.

Your video game consoles could become much more expensive soon

People have a lot of questions about what a second Donald Trump presidential administration will look like, and one of the big concerns surrounds proposed tariffs on foreign imports, with larger ones targeted for China. If these are passed, it could signal a big change in how video game hardware and software is manufactured and could lead to increased costs for players.

Digital Trends spoke to analysts about the potential impact that tariffs could have on tech like game consoles. As of this writing, the proposal is to implement a 10% or 20% tariff on all imports, but a specific 60% tariff on Chinese imports. Some analysts we reached out to declined to comment on the impact of the tariffs because while Trump has discussed a plan, it hasn't gone into effect and might not. Others, like Serkan Toto of Japanese games industry consulting firm Kantan, warned that consumers could be the ones paying the cost if plans go into effect.

Keeping track of every new video game release is a nearly impossible task. Ggames are constantly being announced, delayed, rereleased on new platforms, remastered, canceled — you get the point.

We're focusing mainly on highly anticipated titles with concrete release dates, but will also include little-known indies and keep an eye on launch plans for up-in-the-air titles like Grand Theft Auto 6 or games that are still very early on in development like Hogwarts Legacy 2 or The Last of Us Part 3.
