    The game need MORE then just remaster.
    It needs purpose.. the story isn’t enough..
    On PC we had fun with the MP for sure. That was a fun 4 months 10/10 -ALL consoles need to force developers t put proper Mouse+Keyboard options into most games.. Jedi Academy is perfect on a M+K. Too many force powers and not enough buttons.. Remaster JediKnight 1+2. Those games alone are good enough    The game need MORE then just remaster.

    Remaster JediKnight 1+2.
    Those games alone are good enough imo,,
    Academy was always on the short side,,
    The story and everything always felt generic..
    The lightsaber combat/physics were the games only saving grace.
    Still worth checking out once even briefly,,    … Expand

    It is a horrible game, very boring. Do yourself a favor and save your money. I couldn't spend more than 3 hours of it and got bored.

    While there are some improvements over the original, and including an online multiplayer is worthy of praise, too little was made to bring the game to our day and age. As such, there are many elements that clearly belong to the day of the original release, as well as to another format and which don't fit with the expectations of players, namely its controls and performance.

    If you’re going to play a simple and funny multiplayer game based on Star Wars franchise, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy might as well be a fair one. But it's a 2003 game, so don't forget it.
