Jedi Outcast releasing September 24, 2019 Jedi Academy coming sometime in early 2020. https://www.starwars.com/news/jedi-knight-ii-jedi-outcast-and-jedi-knight-jedi-academy-coming-to-nintendo-switch?cmp=smc%7C2614018491 Lancelot, Smoo and Doby like this Link to comment
Doby Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm quite happily surprised by this. Will definitely buy the PS4 ports. Also curious on the "bringing back the multiplayer" thing they mention in the article. How will that work for consoles? Smoo likes this Link to comment
Aldro Koon Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Fantastic news, we at {JoF} will be sure to try and bring some over to the PC community!Academy will have MP, Outcast will not. Link to comment

Also curious on the "bringing back the multiplayer" thing they mention in the article. How will that work for consoles?Expect no mods obviously and a rather standard MP gameplay similar to Academy on the original Xbox.Hoping there is voice or text chat but its not guaranteed.

Lancelot Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Jedi Academy will be re-released as well? Fuck yeah! The only downside is the lack of mod support, but that is standard in console games, not to mention a rarity. As far as I know, Bethesda supports mods on the console versions of Fallout 4 and Skyrim.Maybe I just have to overcome my habit to have mods applied to enjoy the game as it is. They mentioned modernized controls, and I'm looking forward to see what they made with it. And it's great that those who were never able to play these games willnow get the chance to do it.

Acrobat Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Wish this was somehow cross compatible with PC stuff but probably won't be. I was gonna post this but you beat me too it. I played the original xbox version in the early 2000s and it was terrible so that's kind of what I would expect. In the xbox version they didn't even patch the game they left it on 1.02.

Onysfx Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I really hope jedi academy has mod compatibility but I fear it won't. There is so much content, so much. Smoo likes this Link to comment
Droidy365 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 It would be cool to have mod support, yeah. Or even just DLC would be nice. It would be cool to see something new come out of these games.Perhaps a sequel could even be a possibility, if it sells well. Smoo likes this Link to comment
