Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is a Star Wars first-person shooter computer game released in September 2003. It was developed by Raven Software and published, distributed and marketed by LucasArts in North America and by Activision in the rest of the world.
It's powered by the Quake III Arena graphics engine, with modifications to give a third-person view and new lightsaber effects. Players now have the ability to construct their own light-saber by choosing the hilt style and color. After completing certain objectives, new saber styles become available including the ability to wield two independent sabers as used by Anakin Skywalker during the closing fight in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, or the double bladed lightsaber introduced by Darth Maul in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
