Nintendo spotlighted a series of cult classics during its presentation earlier today, and some of those titles will make their way to the PlayStation 4 as well. Among them is Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, which will launch on Sony’s system from 24th September. It’ll be followed by Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy in 2020.
Fascinatingly, this will mark the first time either title has launched on a PlayStation platform. It should round out a bumper selection of Star Wars adventures on the PS4, with Respawn Entertainment’s all-new Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order also due out this holiday.

HOLY JESUS!!!! Hell yes!
Kotor 1 and 2 next please.
These were two of my favorite games when I was in high school and college. Lots of fun.
I never played this or the original , so from what I've seen and read people really enjoy this game so I'm looking forward to this 🙂
I remember playing this a loong time ago on pc, good game. I guess I’ll try it if the price is right
Would rather have KotOR instead.
Oh God. Proper lightsaber action.
@JayDub Kotor and we're done.
I loved this game back on GameCube.
Awesome! I played these so much back in the day. Looking forward to this more then Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order now lol
Physical release? Or digital only?
Also, I mirror what everyone else is saying. KOTOR 1 and 2, has to happen. Finally with trophies!
I bet it's the lootbox edition.
This is so amazing! The only thing that could top this would be a Jedi Knight reboot that returns Kyle Katarn to Star Wars Canon.
Nice. Now port the original Starfighter!
@RogerRoger seen this?
sweet i loved these games back on the OG XBOX so hell yeah, day one purchase for me
X-Wing & TIE Fighter remasters please!
Yes! Now gimme X-wing and Dark Forces ❤
@KALofKRYPTON I hadn't until now, thanks for the tag; of course there's Star Wars news on the only weekday morning that I'm away from my computer!
I'm particularly excited to finally try Jedi Outcast because it's one of the few Star Wars games that allows you to play as a non-Human protagonist. From what I gather, you can choose to be Kel-Dor, Rodian, Twi'lek or Zabrak as well as either a male or female Generic McGenericface. Having recently started Knights of the Old Republic, I was really disappointed to be locked in as a Human so I'll totally be picking Kel-Dor when I play this.
Both of these titles were part of the Limited Run Games list of forthcoming LucasArts re-releases, so it looks like they're being open about their back-catalogue platform rights.
Which is great, because I'm sure the stories they tell are infinitely better than Disney's sequel trilogy has been thusfar.
@RogerRoger oooh - I'd be interested in getting Outcast as a physical.
Any release of a Stars Wars game is great news!
@KALofKRYPTON Alas, the versions Limited Run Games are producing are only for the PC. I was gonna wait for them but, despite my recent discovery of PC gaming, I'd prefer to play on PS4.
Looking forward to their re-release of Dark Forces II - Jedi Knight, though. That's a stone-cold classic.
I have this and the first one for xbox but outcast isn't backward compatible for some reason and it's the best one of the series in my opinion. Can't wait to download this.
Jedi Outcast is a blast. Loved it back in my college days. So glad to hear it’s coming to PS4.
Cannot wait for this. I just hope they have all the codes available and it’s in widescreen (the vid trailer seems to be at least)
I have been checking intermittantly for it on the PSN store to order.
The US Store has a page for the game itself, but It doesn't appear to be there at all in the UK, will it just appear for purchase on the 24th?
