How to get a red lightsaber in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

In Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, players can change the color of their lightsaber to red. There’s an array of different colors you can choose from, but let’s show you how to have a red lightsaber and embrace the dark side.

In the promotional material, trailers, and cut scenes for both Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and Fallen Order, Cal Kestis traditionally favors a blue lightsaber. Truth be told, your lightsaber can actually be one of many different colors in the game.

Once you unlock workbenches in Survivor, you can tinker with Cal’s lightsaber from style to color. This includes modifying the hardware to the actual color of the laser itself. Respawn Entertainment graciously gifts players a rainbow of colors, but there are some users who idolize villains such as the iconic Darth Vader, making a red lightsaber more desirable.
