If, like many people, you have been beginning to imagine that the long-awaited Knights of the Outdated Republic remake was lifeless and gone, then Saber Interactive’s Tim Willits has some information for you: it is truly nonetheless in improvement.
In a latest interview with IGN, Willits confirmed that the sport remains to be within the works, however that the actual fact its existence continues is “all [he] can say”. It is not a lot, however for now, it appears as if the undertaking is not lifeless, on the very least.
The Knights of the Outdated Republic remake was initially revealed all the best way again in September 2021 as a part of a PlayStation showcase, and on the time, porting studio Aspyr Media was set to take the reins on the undertaking.
Following the undertaking’s announcement, the Knights of the Outdated Republic remake was delayed indefinitely in the summertime of 2022, and in August that very same 12 months, Aspyr was taken off the undertaking formally, with Saber Interactive stepping as much as take over improvement.
Fears started to mount once more in 2023, nevertheless, when Sony and Saber’s then-parent firm Embracer started scrubbing all proof of the KotOR remake from the web, together with trailers and social media posts.
Since then, we’ve not heard something official concerning the remake (properly, till at the moment, a minimum of), and Saber hasn’t launched any new trailers, nor have we seen any gameplay footage.
As such, I might be inclined to take Willits’ feedback with a pinch of salt; it might be that the Knights of the Outdated Republic remake stays on Saber’s slate in the meanwhile, however the gaming business being as unstable as it’s in the mean time, I would not financial institution on that staying the case eternally.
Within the meantime, you may must content material your self with Arcanaut Studios’ non secular successor Destiny of the Outdated Republic, which was introduced throughout final 12 months’s Sport Awards. Growth is being led by ex-BioWare luminary Casey Hudson, too, though once more, we’ve not seen any gameplay but.
