Raven Software has released the sourcecode for Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy to mark the closure of LucasArts today. “We loved and appreciated the experience of getting to make Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy for LucasArts. As a gift to the persistently loyal fanbase for our Jedi games and in memory of LucasArts, we are releasing the source code for both games for people to enjoy and play with,” the developer told Kotaku. I can’t wait to see what modders and garage devs do with this delightful present.

“Better late than never” is a familiar adage to Mac gamers, and if you’ve been hanging out for an OS-X friendly version of Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, today’s your lucky day. The well-received 2003 action affair arrived on digital distribution platforms for Windows in 2009, but the Mac flavour has only now arrived in downloadable form on Steam, the App Store and Aspyr’s GameAgent. You can pick it up for $10, and will benefit from a whole bunch of bug fixes and modern hardware compatibility.
