A spin-off of Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy allows players to create their own Jedi, train in the Academy under the tutelage of Luke Skywalker and Kyle Katarn and ultimately choose to follow the path of the Light Side or the Dark Side of the Force. The game is powered by the same version of the Quake III engine used in its predecessor, Jedi Outcast, containing modifications to the Quake code to give a third-person view and new lightsaber effects (Jedi Knight II had these 3rd person effects as well). Players have the ability to construct their own lightsaber by choosing the hilt style and blade color. After completing certain objectives, new saber styles become available including the ability to wield two independent sabers in a style known as Jar'Kai, once used by Anakin Skywalker during the closing fight in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, or the double-bladed lightsaber (also known as a "saber staff").

Description

With the defeat of Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Galactic Empire is left in ruins. The once Allied Imperial Leaders have turned into vicious warlords fighting over distant regions of space. Meanwhile the former apprentice of long dead Imperial traitor, Alderson, has been searching the galaxy for ancient Sith artifacts that will give him enough power to unite the imperial factions and crush the New Republic. Aboard the super star destroyer Executioner, the Dark Jedi has been held captive for two years. In that time he has been plotting revenge for the murder of Verrier and now bides his time to strike... Created with Jedi Academy and Forces of Corruption. For anyone that's interested, the final video will be premiered at Festival Arcadia in Montreal (november 9th-11th), look for the Machinima Roadshow booth. It will be released online a few days later.
