Crash on Startup
Players on forums are
reporting that they are facing constant crashing issues, especially on the second planet elevator. There are a few things that you can do to get rid of this error.
1. Update your graphics card drivers: If your graphics drivers are outdated, you may have the game crashing issue. In case this is the problem, try updating your GPU drivers to the latest version.
2. Disable full-screen optimization: Open the file location where Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is saved on your computer. Right-click on that file and select “Properties”. Click the “Compatibility” tab, and check the box next to “Disable full-screen optimizations”. Click “Apply” and OK to save your changes.
3. Stop Overclocking your CPU: Another reason for the game to crash at startup is because you’re running your CPU ar speeds higher than official speed rate. In that case, you should set your clock speed back to the default to fix this issue.
Game Not Launching
If for some reason the game is not launching at all, you should try verifying integrity of your game files in the Steam app. Here’s how you can do that:
Log into your Steam account. Go to “Library”, right-click “Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order”, and click “Properties”. Click the “Local files” tab, and click “Verify Integrity Of Game Files”. Steam will check your game files and fix any files that might be causing trouble.
If the problem still persists, it’s likely that EA servers are overloaded. The game has just released, and with so many people trying to access it at the same time, you could suffer launch issues on PC. Hopefully, EA will take action and the problem should be fixed within a few hours.

You’ll also want to make sure that you’re using the latest graphics drivers for the game. In addition to that, try disabling your anti-virus and try again.
If you’re an Nvidia user, you’ll want to open the “Nvidia control panel” and turn the “Manage 3D settings” for Jedi Fallen Order from “power management” to “prefer maximum performance”. Do the same for its “Texture filtering – Quality” option.
Mouse or keyboard not working
Some Discord users reported having trouble to move the mouse or have a restricted functionality when using the keyboard. To fix this issue, go to “App settings” > “Overlay” > “Enable in-game overlay” and toggle it off.
Origin overlay should work just fine, but in case you encounter issues, navigate as follows: head over to “Application settings” > “Origin in-game” > “Enable origin in-game” and toggle it off.
No Audio Fix
Players also complained about the missing dialogue sound/audio in the game. For some, the game has partial audio, and for others, it is missing entirely. This issue is mainly caused by misconfigured or corrupted dialogue audio files from the game directory. Here’s what you need to do to fix it:
Launch origin. Go to My game library and right-click on Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Click on “Repair” and wait for the process to complete. Once done, launch the game and check to see if it fixes the issue.
Controller Not Working
Some players are unable to use their controller while playing Jedi Fallen Order. The fix for the controller not working is simple.
You’ll need to remove all USB devices from your PC except for the mouse, keyboard, your controller, or its wireless receiver. Restart your PC and run the game to see if the controller has started working properly.
Unable to activate Jedi Fallen Order Lightsaber
Some players reported an issue where they can’t activate their lightsaber. Others are experiencing problems where it shuts off during combat.
In this case, try installing new mouse drivers. If it doesn’t work, you may need to change “Windowed Fullscreen” to “Fullscreen.”
