Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is a Star Wars first- and third-person action 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.

The game is powered by the same version of the Quake III: Team Arena engine used in its predecessor, Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, containing Jedi Knight II's modifications to the Quake code to give a third-person view and new lightsaber effects. The player can modify the character's gender and appearance, and can construct a lightsaber by choosing the hilt style and blade color. After completing certain objectives, different saber and combat styles become available.

The multiplayer version contains almost all the characters from Jedi Knight II and Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. In multiplayer mode, one can play online with thousands of others. Hundreds of mods are available. Servers can be manipulated to create imbalance. Saber block, hit sensitivity, and a variety of other features can change, avoiding uniformity among multi-player servers. Multiplayer modes include power duel mode and siege. In the former, players join as an individual or as a team of two; players can have more health and Force power in exchange for being at a disadvantage in numbers. In siege, players work to complete goals and stop the other team from completing their goals.
