About this game

STAR WARS Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy lets you join the exalted ranks of the galaxy’s best warriors!

Use The Force

STAR WARS Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy is the latest instalment of the acclaimed Star Wars series, providing single-player and multiplayer action. This Steam key allows players to take on the role of a new student willing to learn the ways of the Force from Luke Skywalker. Journey through iconic locations in this immersive narrative experience as you choose between continuing on with the light side or taking down a darker path. 

Customisation and Combat 

Customise your character's look and gender before venturing into the Academy, then construct your own Lightsaber using parts for handles and blades. As you progress, explore combat options such as wielding two Lightsabers or even a double-bladed Lightsaber made famous by Darth Maul. If you grow weary of single-player mode and want to test yourself against fierce opponents, there's a multiplayer option as well with 2-8 vs battles online or LAN setups. Compete in lightsaber duels or battle it out with blasters in a variety of games such as deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Free For Alls!

It’s Not A Trap!

Embark on an epic journey in Star Wars lore with Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy. Choose between good or evil paths while interacting with famous characters along the way. Befriend allies for assistance or go it alone - either way, discover new levels as you progress all while customising your character and honing their skills in battle. Forge your weapon and follow the path of the Jedi!

"With the exception of battling other Jedi, you'll be slicing your way through this game in no time. [Dec 2003, p.80]"

"Taking out several Stormtroopers with one sweeping flash of neon is a gratifying sight, but the fun really starts as more and more Saber-wielding Dark Jedi are introduced into...

"The amount of control you have over your character in Jedi Academy is one of those things we all asked for while we were playing "Jedi Outcast.""

Played this a bit while growing up and picked it up again when I saw it on sale for a few dollars (which was a great deal). It’s still just as entertaining and fun as it was when I was a kid. The graphics are quite old, so it’s not visually all that impressive, and the dialogue can be awkward in a few spots, but the game mechanics and story have held up really well over the years. There’s a bunch of missions to play through as you progress in the storyline, and you can customize your character and powers as you go. With that solid base comes mod support and an active community for such an old game. So if you want, you can improve on some of the things that haven’t aged as well, like the texture resolution. Multiplayer servers are also an option if you want to play with some friends. If you love Star Wars, or have nostalgic memories of playing this and similar games (eg. The predecessor, Jedi Outcast), then definitely pick this up! When the price is under $5 you can’t go wrong!

Brought back so many memories. Something about playing a scuffed stretched res game in 2022. Somehow better than today's games.

I first played this game when I was a kid, and I loved it. Since then nothing has been released that can compare with the lightsaber combat in this game. I was very pleased to discover that the online community still exists. I highly recommend this game if you love Star Wars.

One of the greatest Star Wars games out there. The force mechanisms available are so many and different for each side of the force you choose. After all these years still pretty enjoyable to play!
