Star Wars: KOTOR 2 Trailer Reveals Nintendo Switch Release
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords will be released for Nintendo Switch on June 8th. This news comes after the reveal of the Star Wars: Jedi Survivor trailer which teased Cal Kestis’ next challenge. Its predecessor, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, released on the Switch last November.
Knights of the Old Republic was first released in 2003 by Bioware, with its 2004 sequel developed by Obsidian. For its time, the KOTOR series was not only one of the biggest Star Wars games released but also one of the most immersive and expansive RPGs to date. The game’s alignment system, developed around the Light and Dark sides of the force, provided the player with several choices in plot interaction and replayability. The game’s combat system and character creation were based on the D20 system of tabletop RPGs made famous by Dungeons and Dragons. Despite its critical and commercial success, the series itself was dormant from the release of the Star Wars: The Old Republic MMORPG in 2011 until its rekindling with the reveal of the Knights of the Old Republic remake in 2021.
