We recently revisited the classic RPG after watching Disney's The Mandalorian, and found that it still holds up, especially compared to the franchise-focused films of today. The existence of a KOTOR remake was previously reported by Bloomberg's Jason Schreier back in April.

'We're rebuilding it from the ground up with the latest tech to match the groundbreaking standard of innovation established by the original, all while staying true to its revered story.'ĭuring a post-show interview, Treadwell added that some members of the original KOTOR development team are working on the remake. 'With Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake, our hope is to give both series newcomers and long-term fans an experience that can live alongside the very best modern releases,' said Ryan Treadwell, lead producer at Aspyr. We learned that a KOTOR remake was underway at Non-EA studio this past April. Neither BioWare or EA, the company that acquired them in 2008, are involved in the project. It was critically acclaimed for its roleplaying systems, which allowed players to follow the light side or dark side of the Force. Originally designed by BioWare, the first game released in 2003 with a sequel to follow in 2005. As a member of the Jedi, players travel throughout the galaxy attempting to defeat a Sith lord. KOTOR is set 4,000 years before the start of the Galactic Empire, during the early years of the Galactic Republic.
