{{Main|Star Wars: Jedi Knight}}
''Star Wars: Jedi Knight'' is a series of first- and third-person shooter games with action-adventure hack and slash elements. Originally created and developed by [[LucasArts]], ''Jedi Knight'' was passed to Raven after numerous restructures at LucasArts in the 2000's led by then president Simon Jeffery. The series is set years after ''[[Return of the Jedi]]'' and focuses on [[Kyle Katarn]], a former [[Galactic Empire (Star Wars)|Imperial]] officer who becomes a [[mercenary]] working for the [[Rebel Alliance]], and later a [[Jedi]] and instructor at [[Luke Skywalker]]'s Jedi Academy. Raven produced Katarn's storyline sequels ''[[Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast]]'' (2002) and ''[[Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy]]'' (2003).<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Force is with Activision |url=https://www.gamespot.com/articles/the-force-is-with-activision/1100-2464820/}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=May 14, 2003 |title=E3 2003: LucasArts and Activision Shake European Hands |url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2003/05/14/e3-2003-lucasarts-and-activision-shake-european-hands}}</ref>
