Other PC players are decrying the cheaters and toxic players invading console servers, instead trying to welcome new players into the JKA community. Watch Longtime JKA Player – Ask me anything from Illudia on Some console players are understandably furious, asking for the IPs of console servers to be hidden.

The contrast between keyboard and mouse advantage, plus more than a decade of gameplay knowhow, against how Jedi Academy controls on consoles is not pretty. Others are deploying cheats, trolling, and fighting as unfairly as they can. Some of those players just want to hang out with new blood in an old game. It also does these things perhaps too well, including apparently accidental crossplay between PC and console, because by direct-connecting to the IP of the unlisted console multiplayer servers PC players are able to join those games.

Just this week developer Aspyr Media re-released Jedi Academy on PS4 and Nintendo Switch with updated controls for modern consoles, and it seems like the game’s appeal is still strong-plus, the general multiplayer modes are fully functional.
So far, Aspyr has not commented on the situation, except to maybe offer players a cheat code.Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy first released in 2003, and it was good, and its innovative and still-unique lightsaber dueling mechanics garnered a fanatical group of players that have kept up the game for nearly 17 years. "If anything, implement a server browser and a voice/text chat and make it so it's optional to play with pc players." It'll keep the player base more active." said one user that was not much bothered by it. Others would rather see cross-play remain, but be more controlled.

Jedi Academy has been out on PC since 2003, so some of these players have years of experience dueling in multiplayer. "Sure enough, I looked him up and he was playing on PC in a Switch server absolutely decimating everyone." twitchtv in his username," said ResetEra user Max Payment. "I joined a game where one player was absolutely mopping the floor with us and he had. It’s ruining the experience for the new console players.

I think we’d all rather you patch out the IP address being displayed, change the IPs, and do all you can from PC players from entering the servers. It did not take long for console players to verify they were being culled by Jedi with superior experience and laser-like controls. Due to no filters or restrictions, PC players can search for the IP in the game's server browser and join in on some unintended cross-play. In multiplayer games on both consoles, the server IP is visible on the screen. As it turns out, that was literally the case. It was as if the Masters turned on the Padawans. Users on both consoles quickly discovered themselves being cut down by seemingly unbeatable opponents. Last week, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy launched simultaneously on the Nintendo Switch and the PlayStation 4. Needless to say, console players were outclassed against the PC master race.
When Aspyr ported Jedi Academy to the PS4 and Switch, it left a loophole open that allows PC players to invade console servers. In context: It's the age-old debate about who would win in a gunfight: PC or console player, only this time with lightsabers.
