Reports on November 20 suggested that the highly anticipated remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic had been canceled. However, Jason Schreier, a reporter for Bloomberg and co-host of the Triple Click Podcast, confirmed on November 21 that the game is still being worked on, although its release remains uncertain.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is a beloved game with an epic storyline set in the Galactic Empire. As the last hope for the Jedi Order, players venture across the galaxy to battle the Sith, with their choices shaping the outcome of their adventures. However, as the game was released 20 years ago, it no longer meets modern gaming standards, which is why fans were eagerly anticipating the remake.
Yesterday, November 21, reports circulated that the Star Wars KOTOR remake had been canceled due to Sony’s disinterest in the project. This news left fans deeply disappointed. However, there is still a glimmer of hope. Schreier revealed on Twitter that the remake is still being worked on by two members of Saber Interactive.
While this news may bring some relief, Schreier also mentioned that the game may never actually be released. The main obstacle lies in funding, which the developers currently lack. This is why they were seeking the support of a major company like Sony. However, this setback could present an opportunity for Microsoft to step in and acquire the project.
Without sufficient funding, the Star Wars KOTOR remake may remain unfinished. Nevertheless, fans can still enjoy the nostalgia of the game’s taverns on Tatooine, even if the remake never sees the light of day.
