Mara Jade battling monster thing with purple lightsaber

Mysteries of the Sith was a standalone expansion to Jedi Knight where you play as Mara Jade, Luke Skywalker’s aforementioned weird wife, sent to rescue series protagonist and Henley enthusiast Kyle Katarn after he falls to the dark side because he was hanging out in the wrong swamp. It was a perfectly fine, weird little side story, and more Jedi Knight is never a bad thing.

It can certainly be rough on the eyes though, in a similar way to many early 3D games. Like with General Tantor’sremaster of the base Jedi Knight game, Mysteries of the Sith Remastered gives the game a generational model and texture facelift, bringing it more or less in line with the later Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy graphically.

The 3.0 update now fixes a bug that caused the new, higher poly models to revert to their chunky original selves during cutscenes, and this version also brings an upscaled UI and custom-modeled lightsaber for Mara Jade to boot.

Jedi Knight and Mysteries of the Sith Remastered are a great way to pretty up these old games if you want to see them in a new light, but if you’re looking for something more light-touch, you can always just stick to theOpenJKDF2 source portGeneral Tantor’s mods are built on: that’ll let you play the game at crisp, modern resolutions while still keeping a classic ’90s feel.
