BioWare finally reveals the Jedi Knight class for Star Wars: The Old Republic, bringing with them more than 20,000 years of defending the Republic, wielding lightsabers, and wearing long, flowing garments.

For many Star Wars fans, this is the end-all and be-all of character classes. The Jedi Knights are the warrior monks of the Republic, transforming combat into an art form and using their powers to impress their sisters the ladies. A serene, highly-skilled and extremely powerful force striving for peace in the universe, I've always found them a bit boring. Give me a charming smuggler any day.

Find out more about the Jedi Knights at BioWare's official Star Wars: The Old Republic web page. May the force be...you know.
