Legends of the Jedi

jedi-icon

Legends of the Jedi is a text-based roleplaying experience that immerses players in a multiplayer world where they can rewrite classic Star Wars stories with their own heroes, villains, battles, and endings. Over the course of each two-year timeline, the game explores all the key eras of the Star Wars Expanded Universe.

Take and hold planets as an Imperial Stormtrooper, command the Rebel navy and liberate the galaxy, pursue targets as a bounty hunter, or shape things on a larger scale as a member of the Galactic Senate. Maybe you’ll even be one of the few born with force sensitivity, destined to be trained by Jedi or Sith.

The game offers an extensive crafting system for engineers to supply weapons, armor, and ships to the galaxy. Develop new, cutting-edge armaments to give your side an edge, or open a shop in a bustling commercial district and become wealthy as part of a powerful engineering conglomerate.

LOTJ offers full PVP in both ground and space combat, governed by a set of rules to minimize griefing and ensure that all kills have sufficient in-character cause.

What role will you play? The legend awaits!

With an ever changing set of worlds, and constantly updated features, LOTJ has a little bit of something for everyone.

A Vast Galaxy

Explore iconic planets as you travel the Galaxy of Legends of the Jedi. Dive head first into a Sarlaac pit and see if you have what it takes to survive. Visit the swamps of Dagobah while fending off one of the ferocious dragon snakes. Swing by Nal Hutta and barter with the different Hutt Houses to gain them as allies. You can even partake in the hustle-bustle lifestyle on Coruscant.

10 Unique Classes

Pick up a blaster and don a heavy suit of armor to jump into the fray as a combatant, or take control of spacecrafts the size of small cities as a pilot. Track down the galaxy's most wanted as a bounty hunter, or become the most wanted yourself as you smuggle contraband. If you'd rather be a legitimate salesman, craft every useful item in existence as an engineer.

Three-Dimensional Space

With a real-time, three-dimensional grid, space flight is one of the most challenging aspects to learn. Not only is it the method of travel, but it’s also utilized heavily in space combat. Try your skills as a fleet admiral while you take control of up to three capital class ships each with numerous squadrons of fighters to deploy. Master the required skills and become a renown pilot for years to come.

The Story So Far

c3p0-icon

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

ERA 2

Five years after the Battle of Coruscant, the Republic has been reformed into the first GALACTIC EMPIRE. They rule the space lanes and a galaxy still reeling from a devastating war. The MANDALORIANS are left a fractured society after the death of Adha the Unifier and remain scattered across the galaxy.

Military governors appointed by Emperor KANLAEEL KRISTOPH - once the Republic's Chancellor - have replaced feuding Senators. War-weary citizens of the galaxy has largely submitted to their new overseers, the brutal devastation to both Coruscant and Mandalore still all too fresh on their minds. Most just want to be left alone to rebuild their lives after the war.

Meanwhile, rumors in the Mid Rim Territories hint at something more fermenting. The proud Wookiees of Kashyyyk are said to be organizing something in the Shadowlands, criminal activity is beginning to creep up, and there have even been reports of ancient mystics, once thought extinct, resurfacing...

How far will the Emperor take his reforms? Will the galaxy continue to submit to Imperial rule? Only time will well. Welcome to LEGENDS OF THE JEDI!
