Jade Empire: Special Edition heads for the PC

Jade Empire means loving your neighbor with open palms

The fun martial-arts RPG for the Xbox the regular Xbox is breaking out of the console. 2K Games is publishing Jade Empire: Special Edition for the PC, and from what we’ve heard, it looks to be an update with more features and updated graphics.

As Jade Empire fans might remember, the game thrusts you into the character of a martial arts student training to become either a hero or a villain. In this case, players were tasked to follow either the Way of the Open Palm or the Way of the Closed Fist, both of which could be applied liberally in your quest to do good or evil.

In addition to the kung-fu action and the opportunity to woo a member of the opposite gender (or same, if you guys didn’t know), Jade Empire: Special Edition will feature enhanced AI, a new playable character (Monk Zhang from the Limited Edition Xbox version) and two new fighting styles: Iron Palm Style and Viper Style. We’re pretty sure you can guess which one’s made for speed or for power.

While waiting for its 2007 release, don’t hesitate to check out more screens we’ve gathered for this updated chop-socky smoochfest RPG at the full article. Enjoy!
