The revenge of the sith movie game is EXTREMELY underrated. Excellent animations, combat, and even couch coop along with 6 bonus missions and plenty of combos. They don’t make them like that anymore…
Fun fact: that duel mode wasn't remotely in the plan... we were already crunching 14 hour days / 6 days a week on a year schedule. All of the duels and other unlockables were done by myself and a small team (1 animator, 1 character designer, 1/2 environment artist) in our "spare time".
I'm not sure if I'm more excited about playing as Darth Vader or creating chaotic battles with random NPCs. Either way, this mod is pure chaos in the best possible way.
The Jedi Knight series keeps on giving. Kyle Katarn and the Jedi Knight series was my all time favourite game growing up and Movie Duels is A masterpiece can't thank the developer enough go play it and revisit all the best moments of Star Wars! 😎👌
For those interested, Movie *Battles* is basically the multiplayer version of this. Choose your character, from jedi to clone or droids and mandalorians etc and there's still a solid playerbase
Love this didn't know about it! You guys should cover Star Wars Galactic Contention too. That mod is phenomenal fps basically a whole game but admittedly more hardcore and sim like as it's based off of Squad with 100 player online battles. Unfortunately it's offline right now though but should be back soon eventually
This mod is excellent however gets old after awhile if you want some real endless fun play Movie battles 2 it’s basically the multiplayer version of duels
Thank you for shedding light on this amazing mod for this amazing game! Still my favorite SW game of all time, and due to it's small size it's always installed on any PC i have, including my steam deck♥
The multiplayer experience that Movie Battles 2 provides is unparalleled in Star Wars games. Its a similar free to play modification for Jedi Academy like Movie Duels, with multiple game modes, most notably a pvp duel mode, open mode - a CS2/Valorant type game mode, where you're able to play various gunner classes (or a saberist) and try to defeat the opposite team by completing the map objective or killing them, and a legends mode which is similar to open mode but much more chaotically crazy and fun! The Movie Battles 2 and Movie Duels developers are also friends and regularly help each other out so be sure to go and try out and support both modifications!
Anyone else remembers sw battlefront (4) galaxy in turmoil? The fanmade sw bf game that got to hyped up by youtubers and therefore got shutdown by disney. They tried to make another game out of it but they had to give up bcuz to many people working on the project abandoned it...
It blows my mind that they don’t make new games out of the original trilogy. A Jedi survivor quality game playing as the OG Jedi an Sith would be insane
Anyone that loves Star Wars games has gotta have known about or played movie battles/duels man and probably every other Star Wars mod and game that exists
Star Wars fans in 2003: 'Let's mod JK and recreate our favourite battles from the movies!' IGN literally two. whole. decades later: 'How do you do, fellow kids! Bet you've never even heard of this, eh!??'
killing the youngling at the beginning is crazy lol
Looked for this comment 😂the dismemberment mod as well.. Jesus 💀😂
Younglings should be the tutorial
When kids get on my nerves. Which is every day...
It was only one… should’ve been more
Glad that they did what we've all wanted to do for years.

FRRRR PREACH IT
They should remaster that one.

@@tonybarnes2920thank you! Me and my friends had so much fun with that. It made the game complete
@@tonybarnes2920thank you for everything you’ve done, that game was an integral part of my childhood
As a Movie Duels developer,thank you for the video IGN! :)
Thank you for this game! can't wait to try it!
Thank you for this Masterpiece!🙏🏻
May the Force be with your team!
Yeah MD has been underrated for years.
🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for letting me kill Kylo Ren and co while playing as Legends characters. It feels like justice.
Did not expect this gem from IGN.
Ikr random
Me neither 😂... I didn't expect them to make a cool video like this...
True fans remember "Knights of the Force" modding project for Jedi Academy.
And how it stole others' work
@@MileHiGuy95and contained malware.
@@GremzyGamesbut the multiplayer man, it was worth it... All the memories, omg
A successor exists: Galactic Legacy.
I would love a fan made Sequel to Jedi Academy! 😂
As a player of Jedi academy it's super random but awesome that ign posted this
Even weirder bc I’m playing through Academy again
At the height of its popularity Jedi Academy's online multiplayer was so much chaotic fun
Jedi Knight Jedi Academy was my favorite childhood game alongside AOE. Will definitely be checking this mod out.
Still my favorite today whatcha mean lol
d00d... have you played AoE2 Definitive Edition?! that should be ANYONE'S "Stuck on an island with one game" game! 😁🏰
@@boogie5 what’s aoe stand for??
Remember that Jedi Academy came out 21 years ago.
LucasArts in a nutshell.
Nothing will beat the classics...
I've tried this MOD MANY YEARS ago... looking at what it has become is IMPRESSIVE to say the least.
This is the definition of a passion project.
Most impressive?
I'm not sure if I'm more excited about playing as Darth Vader or creating chaotic battles with random NPCs. Either way, this mod is pure chaos in the best possible way.
The best light saber combat ever created
movie battles 2 is a legendary mod
Movie Duels 2 has recently become my favorite mod for Jedi Academy!
Youngling: Master Skywalker, there are too many of them, what are we going to do?
Anakin: I’m gonna put some dirt in your eye
Jedi Academy has one of the best Mod Community ever, love this game since release back in 2003
Love seeing this mod continue to get exposure to this day
The fact you can lose the lightsabers on the ground or jump back up from the shaft like the movie is crazy
Oh you sweet summer child, you have no idea how amazing Jedi Academy duels are
this looks better than star wars outlaws
Never expected this from ign... This might be one of your best videos, grats
The Jedi Knight series keeps on giving. Kyle Katarn and the Jedi Knight series was my all time favourite game growing up and Movie Duels is A masterpiece can't thank the developer enough go play it and revisit all the best moments of Star Wars! 😎👌
They should do the same thing with LotR/The Hobbit
There's some decent LotR mods on jedi academy too. The helmsdeep map is fun to play on with friends
@@RetroSmoowhat is the name?
Almost 2 decades and this is still the best jedi combat game ever made, and base game still is great and the mods just make it better.
Anakin being defeated by the younglings had me dying!
Anakin like this game
That amazing work. The mod community always impressed me
THE YOUNGLINGS 😂😂😂😂😂
For those interested, Movie *Battles* is basically the multiplayer version of this. Choose your character, from jedi to clone or droids and mandalorians etc and there's still a solid playerbase
That ending tho...😂😂
This was a really well done review nice work 👍
Love this didn't know about it! You guys should cover Star Wars Galactic Contention too. That mod is phenomenal fps basically a whole game but admittedly more hardcore and sim like as it's based off of Squad with 100 player online battles. Unfortunately it's offline right now though but should be back soon eventually
So happy to see this mod get a showcase been playing it for years
Love this mod so much, also Movie Duels announced a multiplayer option coming later as well! Great review IGN!
Been playing Movie Duels for years now. I’m happy to see it get recognized!
Thank you IGN for showcasing and bringing more people into the Movie Duels mod, big up to you for this! they deserve the recognition!
Microsoft needs to unleash ravenstudio to make a StarWars Jedi academy remake
Hedland needs to see this
Movie Duels is possibly one of the best mods for Jedi Academy!
This mod is excellent however gets old after awhile if you want some real endless fun play Movie battles 2 it’s basically the multiplayer version of duels
Star Wars games have been a mixed bag, but none of them come close to the total experience of the Kotor duology.
The first 5 seconds just made me SQUEAL WITH EXCITEMENT!!!! 😂😂
Nice to know there are actual gamers working at IGN. More of this content please.
Thank you for shedding light on this amazing mod for this amazing game! Still my favorite SW game of all time, and due to it's small size it's always installed on any PC i have, including my steam deck♥
7:55 thanks for the laugh
the backflips you can do has more dynamic animation than what we get these days lol
So much passion, love and dedication. Made for pure fun.
I've been playing this in VR. Team Beef VR mod is a must!
movie battles 2 still reigns supreme
Base game far superior
@@crimelord90 rock and stick supremacy
Great mod! My favourite was KoTF mod for Jedi Academy.
We all know Jar Jar is the real Sith lord as evidenced by Palp getting merced by 5 kids one of which wasn't even involved.
This is such an old mod now and now they got around to do this.
It took you awhile to get here IGN but you got here! Welcome!!
Younglings Gauntlet Mode...? 😏
Finally IGN putting out decent journalism.
The sequal of Knights of the Force is very similar to this, trying to put every movie, game, book, and infinities in one place. It's crazy fun
The lead-in to the Ben and Maul fight had a ridiculous amount of the two standing around just staring at each other.
"Is this the dream Star Wars game?"
Proceeds to slaughter a youngling 😂
This is actually really cool and you should cover more Mods for games people own when you can! Thanks IGN!!
Damn, Quigon did not die instantly when he dropped into the hole. He latched on and jumped back, like Obiwan did.
Moders like these should work on aaa games ❤
Played it as a kid,it was freakin awesome,I spawned Jedi vs Sith and watched them fight.The Yodas always won,surprise surprise :DDD
The fact that IGN of all people are talking about this is kinda cool! 😂
Thanks J, came here from latest podcast!
Fine, I'll play movie duels for the thousandth time
THIS is what gaming journalism should be!
💪💪 remember buying this game back in 2000
Imagine this with the RTX ray tracing remaster
Should have ended the video of Anakin losing to the Younglings lol
Awesome video. Well done.
This is cool but Im hoping Aspyr remasters or re-releases the movie tie in game for Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith
Seeing Aayla Secura killing Reeva is priceless.
Wow loved the combat in this game so cool
15:19
Lmfao. No wonder Anakin was crying on Mustafar. He lost to a kid and let him get away
4:33 Boba Fett beat down goes hard. Everybody knows he was a master of Teras Kasi
This has been a thing for years, but glad that IGN finally got around to it.
Lmao the younglingd annihilated sidious!
what did he sayyyy!!! 1:59
Looks amazing!
0:00 ign has zero chill 💀
Please make a video about movie battles as well!
It finally gets credit letsgoooo, best star wars game even tho its a mod
Go get it quick!!! There's no way Disney won't take this down at some point.
Man I wish this should be on ps4, 5 and xbox 1, x because we already got jedi outcast and academy and that would be great.
Just play Movie Battles 2 instead, one of the best MP experiences out there
the toxic dumpster fire thats full of manchildren and tryhards?
How about no
Duels single player is peak
The multiplayer experience that Movie Battles 2 provides is unparalleled in Star Wars games.

The Movie Battles 2 and Movie Duels developers are also friends and regularly help each other out so be sure to go and try out and support both modifications!
Nah, I'll stick with Movie Duels thank you. I'm more of a singleplayer guy.
It would be funny if on the Obi-Wan vs Maul Tatooine fight and choose to play Obi-Wan that Maul only gets 1 HP
Duuude this is awesome!!!
Anyone else remembers sw battlefront (4) galaxy in turmoil?
The fanmade sw bf game that got to hyped up by youtubers and therefore got shutdown by disney.

It blows my mind that they don’t make new games out of the original trilogy. A Jedi survivor quality game playing as the OG Jedi an Sith would be insane
And the prequels
They should bring movie duels to consoles, ps5 and Xbox
Anyone that loves Star Wars games has gotta have known about or played movie battles/duels man and probably every other Star Wars mod and game that exists
this is really cool too bad they haven’t made a game like this before
For the first time in a long time, thank u IGN.
Star Wars fans in 2003:
'Let's mod JK and recreate our favourite battles from the movies!'
IGN literally two. whole. decades later:
'How do you do, fellow kids! Bet you've never even heard of this, eh!??'
this video made me buy this game on steam rn
1:29 RIP Obiwan Kenobi.
movie battles 2 next pls
I played a dream Star Wars game IGN
It was called Knights of the Old Republic 2: Sith Lords
Better be more Revenge of the Sith combat and less Master Teras Kasi.
"a dream SW game You've NEVER Played"
Never.
Played.
Bliznez from 2007: Hold my pk3-s ^_^
Should have sent the younglings to confront Palpatine xd
