Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1/day in the week to Sep 12 → 0.5/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 7: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

This is by far the best Star wars game I have ever played. It has everything you could want in a Star Wars game. You can be a Jedi or a Sith lord. The game determines this based on your actions in the game like what you upgrade and how you use your vast array of force powers. It has every force power you could want. You can get really creative in the combat it's a ton of fun. Then you have 3 different light saber types all of which have 2 stances. The combat is fun. It's simple to learn and once you master it you can get pretty complex with it. You can dice your enemies to pieces. There is even tons of guns and equipment. It's a competent first person shooter as well if you want to play that way which at times does make sense to do so. There is tons of great level variety and fan service here. Missions feel vastly different from each other. Throwing you in many different cool settings from the films with different gameplay styles so things never really get stale. The story is a great addition to the overall lore and if I'm being honest I'd rather play the dark forces and jedi knight games over watching the films they are that good. It's made by Raven so it's no surprise they delivered. My only big gripe with this game is it constantly crashes. It is almost unplayable due to how often this happens. It mostly happens at the end of a level or if you die too much and reload saves. I installed some texture and effects mods but the game would not even start prior to that so that's something to keep in mind. I recommend installing openJK on a clean install before playing because it might fix these issues. I was unable to get it to work because I already had some mods installed. Also after the campaign there is a mod called movie duels which is incredible. You can experience a lot of the duels from the films as well as random duels in settings with characters you choose. It's amazing stuff. Overall the is the best star wars game to date for me just keep in mind the technical problems due to it's age. These corporations should fix their broken games if they are going to sell them. Usually that's a instant thumbs down for me but this game is so good I have to give it a positive review. If they did a soft remake of this and outcast it would be amazing.
[h1]Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy[/h1] Olha reconheço que esse é um ótimo jogo, apesar de não ser um grande fã como outros que joguei, pois quando eu era pequeno eu jogava mais outros jogos e não dava muito foco pra esse, acho que meu PC nem rodava na época. Mas esse em especifico é um que sempre me chamou a atenção pois ele tem uma história maneira até e pelo que eu vi não precisa ter jogado os anteriores desse pra entender a história, a gameplay também até que é maneirinha, mas o MELHOR DE TUDO são os mods que são muito bons tipo por exemplo movie duel e galactic legacy onde vc pode reviver momentos da saga seja dos filmes, séries ou desenho, o que não falta é opções. Meu maior problema com esse jogo é que eu acho o combate de sabre de luz dele um pouco complicado de se aprender, se aperfeiçoar nele, saca? Pra quem tem anos de experiência deve ser muito tranquilo, mas pra mim sempre achei meio complicado e aleatório na hora do duelo, no entanto estou querendo jogar mais um pouco esse jogo com o passar do tempo pra ver se eu consigo melhorar no combate de sabre, por isso vou recomendar vc dar uma olhada tbm, especialmente se for fã da saga. Jogue tanto o jogo principal, como os mods!!
9/10. A FAR BETTER continuation of the story after Return of the Jedi than disney's Star Wars sequels.
It's still very much alive, come play and join a clan! Don't forget to download eternalJK or a similar overhaul mod and load it from the mod menu after launching the game. You won't be able to see the servers online otherwise, if you want to play multi-player it's a must.
Has the best lightsaber mechanics of all Star Wars games. Don’t forget to install Movie Battles II
get this, the game is good but also you NEED to check out [url=https://www.moviebattles.org/]movie battles 2[/url] it's an amazing multiplayer mod that has the best saber combat TO THIS DAY
Jedi Academy is, by far, one of my favorite classic Star Wars titles, and I think it definitely deserves more credit for how good it is. [b] Summary [/b] The Jedi Knight series of games has always been solid and decently well-regarded. For the time, they each had fun combat, and once lightsabers were introduced, things only got better from there. I think Jedi Academy is truly the strongest of the series. Being released so close to Jedi Knight II [b] does [/b] mean that the two games feel very similar, but I don't think this is a bad thing. [b] Story [/b] The story of Jedi Academy allows for players with little or no knowledge of the previous installments to jump in pretty quickly and understand the gist of what is going on. While the voice acting isn't perfect, several characters have fun moments, and the storytelling overall doesn't suffer too much for it. The writing itself isn't overly complicated, and I think this works in the game's favor. The story is interesting enough to hold your attention, but not so complicated that you can't just get to the action. [b] Combat [/b] The combat in the game is fun, albeit a little bit "swing with wild abandon." The mix of lightsaber and shooter combat is fun, and I think this is one of the strong points. Learning which weapons are good for which enemies can make it a significantly easier time. Lightsaber combat is surprisingly complex, but the engine itself doesn't exactly support that well. Blades actually collide and bounce off of each other, and movement direction determines how you swing. It all sounds great in theory, but it ends up feeling more-or-less like you're just swinging and backing off at the right moments. (I also might just be terrible at it, lol.) The engine limits the combat in some other ways, but it feels like a good combat system for 2003. [b] Cons? [/b] Surprisingly, this port doesn't really have many performance issues. It doesn't support all modern resolutions, but the limited sizes still allow for decent up-scaling. I don't think I can remember having any crash issues before or currently. One of the biggest complaints that I have is that some of the levels just suck [spoiler] (looking at you Rancor) [/spoiler]. Most of the levels are fun, and progression is even enough to figure out. There are one or two that feel like a slog, but with the large number of missions available throughout the game, I think this is acceptable. There's also a ton of online guides that can make these levels much quicker. Also, save often. This game has silly physics and scarce checkpoints. Jedi Academy is far from perfect, but I think it is easily worth playing if you are a Star Wars fan, or a fan of shooters from this era. It's truly a fun experience, and I would love to see a remaster of this full series eventually.
Gather round kiddies cause I've got a story to tell. Way back in the day, when PC games were on a small plastic disc named CD's, I played this game on a demo disc and fell in love with it. I have played this game since release and it is an absolute classic. Saber combat was way ahead of its time and multiplayer is still fun. I would recommend this game even if you aren't a fan of Star Wars.
