I replayed Jedi Outcast yesterday and its levels and platforming can be overly long and exhausting with some pretty drab levels (Nar Shadaa, the mining colony, all 3 Doomgiver levels) and I didn't care much for Kyle Katarn. It has much more freedom with a character creator that finally allows you to play as an non-human Jedi (or a woman for that matter), it lets you customize the look of the Jaden protagonist, it gives you 3 different saber options (single, dual, double-bladed), and the missions are short but also each of them are very unique and memorable. Personally, I enjoy replaying Jedi Academy more.
However, Jedi Academy did introduce a number of new features to the lightsaber combat that also enabled the multiplayer battles to be more dynamic and popular with the modding community creating some exceptional mods and game modes that live on to this day.

At the time of release, Jedi Outcast was better received than Jedi Academy with many 9's and 10's in PC gaming magazines, whereas Jedi Academy was more around 8s and 9s.
JEDI ACADEMY MODS GRAPHICS PS4
Since then, the Raven games have been fondly remembered and still played today on multiplayer, where both games even received a PS4 and Switch release in 2017. Using the idtech 3 engine, Jedi Outcast was extremely successful and Raven outdid themselves and even managed to squeeze out the still alive and kicking Jedi Academy only a year later in 2003. Then Raven took over with Jedi Outcast in 2002 with Activision publishing it. Its expansion Mysteries of the Sith also saw the famous Mara Jade getting her one and only game that I posted how surprisingly entertaining it was when I played it last year. The game received very high scores and commercial success, but its early 3D presentation and clunky AI might put some people off today. In 1997, Lucasarts' Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight saw an evolution from the original Doom-ike Dark Forces to a 3D game with a lot of verticality in its level design, but more importantly force powers and a lightsaber.

Dark Forces might not be considered a Jedi Knight game, but it's still considered one of the best Doom clones at the time and it saw fans latching on to more Star Wars stories almost a decade later after the movie trilogy had ended with elaborating on how the Death Star plans were acquired for the original Star Wars.
