What makes Jaden an interesting protagonist is that the character is whoever you want them to be, ultimately - male or female, Twi’lek, Zabrak, human, Kel Dor, Rodian. In this Legends-era story, players take on the role of a Jedi initiate named Jaden Korr. The game was built using id Software’s Quake III engine (programmed by Doom co-creator and Oculus chief technologist John Carmack), so it’s firmly rooted in the first-person shooters of the past - but it’s got plenty of lightsaber action, too. It also bridges the gap between retro gameplay and more modern blockbuster sensibilities. However, Jedi Academy is a fairly self-contained, standalone experience you can easily enjoy it without having played the others. Released in 2003 for the Xbox and PC, Jedi Academy is Raven Software’s follow-up to the highly acclaimed Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, making it the fourth and final installment in the Jedi Knight quadrilogy that began with LucasArts’ beloved 1995 shooter Dark Forces. Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy might just be the perfect entry point into the classics. Maybe you’ve played the recent Battlefront titles, you’re aware of the rich, decades-long history of Star Wars games, but you don’t know where to start. Let’s say you’re a fan who’s new to video games. In Replaying the Classics, revisits Star Wars games of yesteryear, examining why we loved them then and why they stand the test of time.
