Even compared to Fallen Order, there is a massive number of collectibles for Cal Kestis to collect from every location in Jedi Survivor. With so many scattered around every corner, having all of the map upgrades can make the search far easier as you attempt to collect everything.
In total, there are four map upgrades, and each one will reveal certain collectibles, like all of the chests, for example. Each of the upgrades has an entirely different process to complete before earning them, and this is certainly an end-game activity, so make sure that Cal is up for the task.
Jedi Survivor – How to Get All Map Upgrades
Each one of these upgrades will allow you to see certain collectibles around the map, including Essence items, chests, treasure, and more. You won’t realize how many collectibles there really are until they are all revealed. You can find each map upgrade and the outline of the process below.
Chest Map Upgrade
This is one of the easiest upgrades regarding time taken, but the enemies are dangerous. The first step is to find the Abandoned Shack, which is located in Foothill Falls and can be reached with a Relter. Talking to the Prospector at the stables will mark the location. Find the shack and look for the basement door on the outside. Head through this new path to enter the Phon’qi Caves.
These caves are full of closed pathways that need to be destroyed, like the Roller Mine doors. Instead of Roller Mines though, you can throw some organic bombs to blow open entrances. The end of the cave will pit you up against three raiders using lightsabers. As a reward, you can see every chest, including Stims and Slicing.
Seed Pods Map Upgrade
Getting all of the seed pods is more time-consuming than it is difficult in Jedi Survivor. Step one is to recruit Pili Walde, who you’ll encounter in the main story. I’ve never seen a character like Pili, but recruiting Walde will bring them to the roof of the Saloon and allow for more opportunities to grow plants in the garden.

Unlocking all of the garden space will allow BD-1 to slice a final chest as a reward, and the upgrade will allow you to see where all of the remaining seed pods are in Jedi Survivor. Make sure to start this as soon as possible though, because waiting is required for the plants to grow. I had to waste plenty of time later on after I ignored the garden.
Essence Map Upgrade
In terms of difficulty, this may be the worst of the bunch. You’ll have to find the Alignment Control Center, which is in Rambler’s Reach just outside the outpost. Head inside and unlock the Meditation Point. Next to the point, there will be seven screens that signify the Jedi Chambers. As each one is complete, the lights will go from red to green. Seven chambers exist around the map in Jedi Survivor, and the locations are below.
- Rambler’s Reach outpost
- Basalt Rift
- Corroded Silo
- Untamed Downs
- Viscid Bog
- Devastated Settlement
- Mountain Ascent
Once all of the chambers are complete, you’ll earn the map for the Essence points all over the galaxy. It’s a great way to earn Skill Points or more health and Force.
Treasure Map Upgrade
This is our final map and it reveals where all of the items like Data Discs or Priorite are located. While I spent most of my time having to rack up the collectibles from the treasure section, getting the map upgrade wasn’t bad. This upgrade can be unlocked on Jedha by completing the Path puzzles.
Three of them exist and you can see the pillars sticking up from any point on Jedha. After all three are done, head to the center of the map where the final temple has opened up in Jedi Survivor. From there, the last map upgrade is all yours.
