"We loved and appreciated the experience of getting to make Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy for LucasArts," Raven told Kotaku Australia. "As a gift to the persistently loyal fanbase for our Jedi games and in memory of LucasArts, we are releasing the source code for both games for people to enjoy and play with." The source code for each game can be found on Source Forge through the source links below, opening the game up to anxious modders across the galaxy.

Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast launched on the PC in 2002, with ports to Mac OSX, the original Xbox and Nintendo GameCube coming the following year. It's the sequel to 1998's Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith, developed by LucasArts for the PC, and revolves around the New Republic that forms after the collapse of the Empire. (Spoiler?)

That's not the case in The Old Republic -- check out the trailer after the jump to see how the Jedi's armor progresses as they move up the level ladder.

When it comes down to it, the two specializations for Star Wars: The Old Republic's Jedi Knight class really determine what kind of a person you are in real life. For instance, are you an introspective, thoughtful so-and-so who prefers to hang near the back of a crowd, supporting your friends with encouraging words, ala the Guardian? Or do you like wildly flailing two lightsabers, like the Sentinel? Well, which is it? Compassion, or two lightsabers?

Check out the game's official site for more details on these two advanced classes, and check out the trailer after the jump to see what kind of hardships (and Sandships) the Jedi Knight will have to face in The Old Republic.

A short time ago, on a website as close as your keyboard, LucasArts launched its latest retro revival on Steam. While previously the publisher had brought several of its classic adventure games to the service, this time it's all Star Wars -- the entire Jedi Knight series, to be specific.

The five games are being offered as a set for $19.99, though, should you find yourself short on credits cash and/or just want a particular installment, these are the prices you're looking for: Star Wars: Dark Forces and Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II at $4.99 apiece; Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy for $9.99 each; and Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith at $2.99. May the bandwidth be with you.
