On March 26, 2002 LucasArts and Raven Software released Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast which brought movie-quality light saber combat to the gaming community. The light saber combat has so much depth to it that eight years later people are still excited to learn and play. No other game has come closer than JK2:JO and JK3:JA to turning a player into a Jedi Knight. The Jedi Knight series stands out as premier Star Wars games with the likes of incredible titles like Star Wars: Tie Fighter (which deserves a remake in its own right) and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The Dark Forces/Jedi Knight line of games has been dormant for too long; wielding your own light saber is something that every Star Wars fan wants. The excitement you get in a duel relying on quick reactions and precise saber control is truly addicting. We're hooked and we want more.
Reaching this current level of interest confirms that the desire for a true lightsaber combat experience remains as strong as ever. It is heartening to see so many people still captivated by the depth of the mechanics that defined this series. This momentum reminds us that our collective appreciation for this specific style of play is not a relic of the past.

The persistence of this community suggests that the combat mechanics of the Jedi Knight series remain unmatched even after all these years. Reading your personal accounts of these games confirms that this is not just nostalgia but a desire for a specific kind of precise, immersive experience that modern titles have yet to replicate.

Seeing one hundred people gather around this request is a quiet reminder of how much this specific style of gameplay still means to us. It is heartening to find so many others who remember the precision of those original light saber duels with such clarity.

Either reboot the series or continue it, i don't care. It would just be a dream come true if i ever saw a new jedi knight game. The only thing i ask is that you keep the same amazing lightsaber combat from jedi outcast and jedi academy.
