Jedi Knight 3 Revealed?

Mar 30, 2003 11:58am CST tags: Activision, Jedi Academy
Though not even officially announced (it was mentioned a recent Activision conference call), the new issue of the German magazine GameStar has a feature on Jedi Knight 3. Raven Software is once again developing, using the Quake 3 engine. For info from the article itself check out JediKnightII.net. Some screenshots can be found in this LucasForums thread. Thanks Jake & nova.
Thus, for the first time in the Dark Forces series, you don't play as Kyle Katarn! Instead, you create a character for yourself. Create? Yes, similar to a role-playing game you choose your characters gender, race (Humans and Twi'leks are confirmed so far) face, hair cut and clothing! And the customization doesn't end there: you also choose a saber handle, colour and whether you want to use one or two sabers! Later on, you will also get a Darth Maul-style double-bladed saber.
There is also this GameStar page .. of course this could all be a joke :)
