Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake to Get New Details “When the Time is Right”, per Saber
Saber Interactive’s Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has done very well, to the extent that it’s making the developer rethink its approach to current projects. Of course, that includes Star Wars: Knights of the Republic – Remake. It was announced in 2021 for PS5 and PC before becoming embroiled in conflicting cancellation reports.
WithSpace Marine 2‘s success, does that bring Saber Interactive closer to finishing the remake? CCO Tim Willits told IGN, “Right now, we are focused on development. We look forward to sharing more when the time is right.” There’s no ETA on when it can be expected, but at the very least, it’s progressing.
Star Wars: Knights of the Republic – Remake, based on BioWare’s acclaimed RPG of old, was originally under development at Aspyr Media. However, after studio leadership reacted negatively to a vertical slice (and promptly fired design director Brad Prince and art director Jason Minor), it was indefinitely delayed. The Embracer Group, which still owns Aspyr, had no comments on its progress.
After Saber Interactive split from the company, it assured players that the remake is “alive and well” and it’s committed to exceeding expectations. Stay tuned for more updates, however long they may take.
