[QUOTE="Admin, post: 70427, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2021/09/09/screen-shot-2021-09-09-at-4-05-36-pm-1631218005379.png[/IMG] Saber Interactive’s long-running development of its Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake is confirmed to still be underway. In a recent interview with IGN, the chief creative officer of Saber, Tim Willits, answered our question regarding the project’s future with a short but simple: “Yes, it is still in development. That's all I can say.” The news will be of relief to the hordes of loyal fans of the now-classic RPG originally developed by Mass Effect and Dragon Age studio, BioWare. The modern reimagining was [URL='https://www.gamefile.news/p/kotor-ii-restored-content-mod-dlc-switch-killed-disney'][U]first revealed way back in 2021[/U][/URL], but nothing has been officially seen or heard of it in the five years since. A report in December 2025 from [URL='https://www.gamefile.news/p/kotor-ii-restored-content-mod-dlc-switch-killed-disney'][U]Game File[/U][/URL] revealed that Aspyr was no longer leading development on the remake, but that the reins had reportedly been handed over to Mad Head Games, the team behind the upcoming Hellraiser: Revival. That same article also claimed that plans are not only in motion for the KOTOR reimagining, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/star-wars-knights-of-the-old-republic-2-remake-plans-revealed-as-kotor-1-reimagining-continues-development-at-saber'][U]but a remake of its sequel, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2[/U][/URL], had also been discussed. “Juliet was the codename for a project where we were going to do a full remake of KOTOR II with modern art, modern gameplay, you know, keep the story and the characters and the general — the general content of KOTOR II, but remake it for modern hardware and modern machines with updated graphics and all those kind of things,” said Douglas Reilly, Lucasfilm Games vice president. “It was something we were discussing with Aspyr.” Whether those full plans for remakes of the Knights of the Old Republic series ever come to fruition is yet to be seen; however, it looks like development is still pressing on when it comes to Saber’s work on the original. This all comes after [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/star-wars-fate-of-the-old-republic-announced-from-former-kotor-and-mass-effect-director-casey-hudson-the-game-awards-2025'][U]the reveal of Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic[/U][/URL] at the 2025 Game Awards, a brand new single-player RPG set in a galaxy far, far away, led by former KOTOR director, Casey Hudson.
