Can I Run Star Wars: Jedi Knight II?
Raven Software released Star Wars: Jedi Knight II in 2009. It is an action game, published by LucasArts. The game supports a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Over 4 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. It is localised into 5 languages according to the store listing. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS. Metacritic places it at 89.
