“Our big goals on this are to bring the story to a modern audience and have it be just as impactful today as it was for players when it originally launched.” “This is something that is important and impactful,” said Treadwell. Orion Kellogg, executive producer at Lucasfilm Games, and Ryan Treadwell, lead producer at Aspyr, say that the team is taking its time to balance the weight of fan expectation, authenticity to the original, as well as any necessary changes or updates. Its announcement comes as part of Sony's PlayStation showcase, and is confirmed to be early in development, though an official blog post indicates also that work has been happening on the title "for a little while" in close collaboration with Lucasfilm Games. Knights of the Old Republic was first reported to be in development back in April by multiple outlets.
Its announcement during Sony's PlayStation Showcase is somewhat ironic given that it was a top Xbox exclusive back in the day. Originally developed by BioWare, KOTOR helped inaugurate a new era of PC RPGs on console. Lucasfilm hasn't confirmed that this rumored new Knights of the Old Republic is in the works but with the company announcing a sleuth of new games recently, including a new Indiana Jones game, we're hoping we'll see more later this year.Knights of the Old Republic is consistently ranked as one of the best RPGs ever made, and it sits atop our list of the ten best Star Wars games.
It's possible that with EA's exclusivity ending, that another studio has in fact taken up the reigns of Knights of the Old Republic.īulletin also claims that EA is working on a smaller Star Wars title, while another Studio is working on a "bounty hunter game". However, Lucasfilm announced last month that it was extending the Star Wars license to other studios outside of EA, with Ubisoft now confirmed to be making an open-world Star Wars title. It was widely assumed that the game was being developed by EA and BioWare, who originally created the series - with EA having the game rights to the Star Wars franchise. However, at the time, there was no mention of who was developing the game. Cinelinx also claimed that this game would "integrate elements from the first two games in order to bring certain things into the current Star Wars canon", essentially making the game more a reboot than a remake.
