The direct footage weirdly mentioned the single player like it was the only option. Seeing how plenty of other old games have been rereleased on Switch with the multiplayer removed I gotta get some more clarification. I need that multiplayer in! EDIT Rereading it definitely sounds like they are talking about the Switch version. Was a bit worried they were mentioning online but not specifying on which system. Yay!
That's Jedi Knight 1 expansion, this is 2 and 3. Unless there was an expansion. For 2 and 3 with the same name I never knew of

Aspyr doing good work with the star wars license. here's hoping they get to port Kotor 1 and 2 over at some point

I doubt that's ever happening. Disney doesn't do in house game studios anymore.
That said, even with a PS4 version lined up too, this is very clearly Disney/Lucasfilm testing the waters to see how much appetite for Star Wars there is on the Switch.
I wouldn't be surprised to see a deluge of Star Wars ports in 2020, or even an effort to strongarm EA into making Switch titles, if this does well.
The first game won't have multiplayer, if the sentence parsing is correct.
"Two classic Star Wars games are coming back to consoles from Lucasfilm and developer Aspyr, starting September 24 with the action/adventure game Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy will follow soon after in early 2020, with Aspyr bringing back the game's much-celebrated online multiplayer battles, and both games will feature Gyro Aiming support for Nintendo Switch's Joy-Cons."
That's only in reference to the second game. There are so many damn colons in the paragraph I can see why people are confused.

fuuuuck yes, now where's that Rogue Squadron at! Apparently we don't need EA for this after all!
Damn, I hope that's a mistake :(
It's super confusing. I've gone from disappointed to relieved, then back to disappointed again.
See my post. Only Academy will be getting multiplayer, based on how it's written.
