IGN Preview – Jedi Knight Hands-On

IGN has posted a writeup and a short video preview of their hands-on impressions of the Jedi Knight class.

Although there is video, there doesn’t appear to be any new footage. And though short, the narrator gives a fairly good and positive overview of his experiences with the game. Still, we’re left wanting more considering they had five hours of hands-on gameplay.

Luckily, we get a bit more with their writeup, which you can read here:

Companions play a role in the world of The Old Republic, something I encounter briefly in an early quest. I venture deep into an underground warren and break free a T7-01 droid. It’s the Jedi Knight companion character, but this early in the game he’s only around for a little while. He has his own skill bar with unique commands, including an electric jolt that helps generate threat for the Knight. He can also sell off junk items from my inventory, an option which I could see being extremely convenient while out in the field far away from any vendors.
